“Sin Chew Daily was incorporated in 1929, and has continued publications in various circumstances; under British colonialism, Japanese Occupation, Independence Movement, as well as the early years of nationhood until today.
Sin Chew Daily was suspended on two occasions; first during the Japanese Occupation of Malaya and Singapore between 1942 and 1945, and the second time was when the Malaysian government suspended Sin Chew Daily’s licence under the Printing Presses and Publications Act in 1987. With the effort of the current chairman Tan Sri Sir Tiong Hiew King, Sin Chew Daily resumed publication on 8th April 1988.
The circulation of Sin Chew Daily has improved steadily ever since the resumption of its publication. Today, some 400,000 copies of the newspaper are sold each day, with more than 1.18 million people reading it in Malaysia, making Sin Chew Daily not only the best selling Chinese language newspaper in Southeast Asia, but also the largest Chinese language newspaper outside mainland China.
In October 2004, Sin Chew Daily, along with its sister publications Guang Ming Daily, Eye Asia, Sinchew.com.my and three educational publications Cahaya Sin Chew, Sinaran Sin Chew and Bintang Sin Chew, were formally restructured as Sin Chew Media Corporation Berhad, and was listed on the Main Board of Bursa Malaysia.
On 29 January 2007, Sin Chew Media Corporation and the Ming Pao Group of Hong Kong announced a merger program, and invited the participation of Nanyang Press Holdings. Under the merger program, the three media groups merged to form Media Chinese International Limited. Subsequently, Media Chinese International Limited took over Sin Chew Media Corporation’s listing status on the Main Board of Bursa Malaysia, to become the first company seeking a dual listing in both Malaysia and Hong Kong.
Among the renowned Chinese language publications under its banner are Ming Pao, Sin Chew Daily, Guang Ming Daily, Nanyang Siang Pau, China Press, as well as Yazhou Zoukan, and more than 30 other periodicals. Ming Pao is published in three different editions in North America, namely Toronto, Vancouver and New York. Sin Chew also runs Cambodia Sin Chew Daily in Cambodia and Harian Indonesia in Indonesia.
星洲日报创刊于1929年，经历过英国殖民地时代、抗日时期、独立运动，直至建国之后的今天。
《星洲日报》曾二度停刊，第一次是在1942至1945年，因日军南侵，马、新两地相继沦陷而被迫停刊；第二次是1987年遭马来西亚政府援引出版和印刷法令吊销出版准证。 1988年4月8日，在现任社长丹斯里张晓卿爵士及高层的努力争取之下，《星洲日报》得以复刊。
复刊后，发行量节节上升，今已达40万份，每天有超过118万的马来西亚人阅读《星洲日报》，使《星洲日报》不仅成为东南亚发行量最高的华文报章，也是中港台以外最大的华文日报。
2004年10月，《星洲日报》连同《光明日报》、《亚洲眼》、《星洲网》及其它3份教育周刊《学海》、《星星》及《小星星》正式组成星洲媒体集团，并在吉隆坡证券交易所主要交易板上市。
2007年1月29日，星洲媒体集团和香港明报集团宣布合并，并邀请南洋报业参与。在合并计划下，星洲媒体将倒置收购明报企业，实现走向全球的计划。明报企业将取代星洲媒体在大马股票交易所主要交易板的上市地位，成为第一家在大马与香港双边上市的公司。
新集团取名“世华媒体”，旗下中文日报包括《明报》、《星洲日报》、《光明日报》、《南洋商报》、《中国报》，以及《亚洲周刊》、等三十多家杂志。其中，《明报》在北美发3个地方版本，分别是多伦多版、温哥华版与纽约版。
星洲集团也出版《柬埔寨星洲日报》与《印尼星洲日报》，业务版图分布得极广。
