“We want to involve viewers a lot more. There’ll be, for example, a segment where our presenters introduce a topic each morning and engage viewers for their thoughts and opinions, through interactive media,” she added.

Viewers can give live comments and feedback through social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Channel NewsAsia’s website.
