Several language audiences, separate services
Mediacorp’s video-service portfolio identifies Channel 5, Channel 8, Suria and Vasantham as separate brands. A household that follows more than one language benefits from retaining those service identities, while a news outlet such as CNA serves a different programme purpose.
App navigation language, programme audio and subtitle options remain separate attributes. Changing the interface does not turn every selected programme into another language version. The current programme’s own information should supply the available playback choices.
Singapore time and overseas seasons
Asia/Singapore is the clock reference below. A recurring programme from a market that changes clocks can move relative to a Singapore evening. Keep its source zone and date in the reminder rather than saving one permanent time difference.
Dated local-time examples
These examples convert the same two UTC instants into the listed locations. They are clock calculations, not television listings. A broadcaster’s current programme guide supplies the programme start; the conversion supplies the local date and time.

Questions about this guide
Which local clock does this Singapore guide use?
The dated examples use Asia/Singapore. At the example instant of 20:00 UTC on 3 November 2026, Asia/Singapore is 2026-11-04 04:00 (UTC+08:00). Use the location for the actual screen; separate identifiers can share a current offset while retaining different historical rules.
Which broadcaster references are provided for Singapore?
Channel 5, Channel 8, CNA, Suria, Vasantham. Their own websites provide current programme information and conditions. These reference identities are separate from the contents of an IPTV Australia account.
