Singapore Press Holdings wins big at Asian Media Awards

SINGAPORE- The Straits Times was recognised for its impactful editorial content as well as its infographics and photos at the Asian Media Awards .

Penned by the paper's senior health correspondent Salma Khalik, the story made waves for its critical take on whether the Singapore Medical Council's judgment in the case of Dr Lim Lian Arn had been too heavy-handed. "What I did was merely highlight the various contradictory, and sometimes even ridiculous, actions and statements by the different groups," Ms Khalik, 65, said.

Put together by a team of four artists and infographic journalists led by EMTM visual and infographics deputy editor Simon Ang, the graphic was the brainchild of infographic journalist Billy Ker, 32, who is known to his colleagues as the in-house Marvel cinematic universe expert. This year's awards were announced online, marking a first for the AMA which traditionally honours winners at Wan-Ifra's Publish Asia gala dinner.
