When us grandkids were old enough, we’d join in this morning ritual – coffee, toast, and reading the papers. The sight of the Daily is as familiar to me as the Vancouver Sun and Vancouver Courier, and the memory of the whole pile of daily papers brings up such strong associations of home, family, and the breakfast table, I feel quite reverential. My grandparents Harold and Leila Chu read the Daily, uh, daily. (I’d love to know the worldwide circulation, but Sing Tao doesn’t publish that number.) The Sing Tao has a circulation of 180K in Canada alone, and about 1 in 2 Chinese read it. In Canada, the offices are in Vancouver, Calgary, and Toronto. Established in 1938, the chain is headquartered in Hong Kong. The Sing Tao Daily is a worldwide news organization with 22 offices worldwide, publishing in over 100 cities, with 16 editions. I challenge you to read the article in your language of choice (yes, you can have it translated to any other language – doesn’t have to be English) because you will be amazed at how easy it is. Don’t let a little thing like not knowing a language stop you. I’ve lost count of how many languages are available. This will translate entire pages in nanoseconds. I use and love Google Chrome with the Translate app extension enabled.

Time’s a-wasting and in place of missing languages I have tools. This is the first time I’ve been interviewed for a Chinese newspaper, and it’s with gratitude and a touch of sadness that I can’t read it in Chinese. In this post I’ll share my article, tools to help all of us non-Chinese readers, and a personal memory about the Sing Tao. My article in the Sing Tao Daily was released today.
