Source: Utusan’s fourth quarter 2008 unaudited results as submitted to Bursa
Utusan workers are demanding better terms from their employer. But the firm’s revenue shows a drop from the previous period.
Fourth quarter unaudited profits dropped substantially as “other operating expenses” soared to RM17.3 million from RM1.9 million for the same period in 2007.

Only those who are ignorant read the Utusan. It insults one’s intelligence.
Serve them right…
Ummmm, Utusan has always been an underperformer….a loser, so whats new
Don’t Touch That C…
Whoever buys it buys C…
Putusan Malaysia deserves to sink quietly & ignominiously into the stinking cesspool in which it has wallowed since the evil Mahathir era.
Serves them right! this racist newspaper has been feeding the malay ppulations with…!
mut on is right.They not only giving to cawangan umno but (apparently) goverment expecially sekolah kebangsaan getting it free every monday beb
utusan akhbar yang memperbodohkan ….
The paper is for members only..so the revenue is soon to be
family size unless someone pump in $$$ to make it looks good.
Yeah, and minus the forced sale to those cawangan2 UMNO er… government departments and what do you get? I bet only half of the sales.
Utusan will never die….they just shrink and let’s hope it becomes the opposition media together with Star,NST and so on.
Utusan today is a far cry from the Utusan of the pre-Independence and early years of nationhood. UMNO destroyed Utusan and the hardworking independent-minded Utusan journos like Said Zahari etc. back in 1961. In those days the journos had brains and had principles. They lived and fought for the principles they believed in. The Utusan journos these days don’t have it in them to fight or to even think through any self-respecting strategy. They only grovel before UMNO and beg for crumbs from the table. How times have changed. And Utusan still talks about the Malay agenda? What agenda? An… Read more »

All MSM in Bolehland are controlled by who?
So to all those who are the employees of MSM, you people don’t have to worry.
This is the most secure sector and its business will not be influenced by the economy slow down, unlike the other SMIs.
Fat bonuses and salary increments will still be paid in 2009, I guess.
To other people in the streets, sorrylah, please take care.
The Malays I know, most of them highly educated, besides TheSun, prefer also Harian Metro. They prefer the content there.
doom is near for all the cronies….winds of change is picking up its velocity…malaysians will be liberated… once the perfect storm is over, then we shall all participate in rebuilding a harmonious nation…
Anil, How come cut and paste master Rockey and Samad r so silent on Zaid request to agong regarding malaysia`s next PM.
This media deserved it. A suit has already been filed against this race biased media. The rakyat hope that they will not only pay $$$$$ compensation but also requst to close down after the court case.
But, alas, in Bolehland, with UMNO behind it, anything is possible.
My Malay friends have stopped buying Utusan. They have switched to The Sun.
serve them right. racist media.
dont worry umno will bail out their media … hehehe. their staff will get bonus too.
numbers don’t add up?
what’s other operating expenses? …
