When CNA started, it was a 'wait & see' game | Woon Tai Ho (Founder, Channel News Asia), Part 1

I thoroughly enjoy this podcast and look forward to watching the other episodes. I was the video editor for one of the "Extraordinary People" series, specifically the episode on photographer Chua Soo Bin. It was challenging working with a perfectionist, but through Tai Ho, I realized how shallow and imperfect I was.

If anyone says Singapore has successful homegrown brands like SIA, DBS, BreadTalk, OSIM, I would say add CNA to the list.

Thank you very much for this informative and thoughtful video. I am especially appreciative of the English subtitles - it helps us older folks as our hearing is not that great . Also, the font type and size is very clear as our eyesight is not that great either. ❤😂

Great content. But I really don't like the frequent cuts. The video doesn't seem smooth throughout.

[@SoThisIsMyWhy]

Oh no!! Thank you for the feedback. Let me experiment with minimal cuts for part 2! I worried about the length hence the many cuts 🥲

Yes good point. I reag appreciate your work bringing Mr Woon’s story to us, often when watching the interviews of such an influential person, we’re also interested in his cadence as it shows us how he thinks as he’s responding to your questions! I will gladly watch a 2 hour version of this if you ever upload it!

[@SoThisIsMyWhy]

@@gjkung ahhh now I know!! The original recording is indeed very long and I worried about the length. I’ll certainly look into releasing the full version in the future so it doesn’t impact the viewing experience. 😊

Woon Tai Ho spoke very candidly and eloquently. CNA is truly a great Singapore brand. When CNA started, it was a newbie in a competitive arena of established big players like CNN and BBC. Nevertheless, the sheer tenacity and focus of Tai Ho and his team as pioneers, made and grew CNA to be what it is today. Thank you for this insightful interview.

@@haroldtan1638 thank you for watching and leaving such a lovely comment :)

I think Mr. Woon should thank his Twin Brother not going to Univ., to thus have his opportunity to go for Univ studies. Sometimes, loved ones, don't wish to tell the truth but to be kind to his CNA brother.

I call BS on the statement that Sg perspective is Asia perspective 😢
