In July 1993, I was invited to give a series of workshops to the visual journalists at the Straits Times in Singapore. [Straits Times company also owned the Business Times, a tabloid call New Paper and two native language papers: Berita Harian and Zaohao.]

The workshop was for three days. Among the topics covered:

• Readership
• Typography and Readability
• Ethics
• Color [although we spelled it Colour]
• Graphics
• The Future [Year 2000 design, based on the work done at the American Press Institute seminar on the topic].
