Panasonic, once revered for its plasma TVs, is giving up on making its own TV sets. Today, it announced that Chinese company Skyworth will take over manufacturing, marketing, and selling Panasonic-branded TVs. Skyworth is a Shenzhen-headquartered TV brand. The company claims to be “a top three global provider of the Android TV platform.” In July, research firm Omdia reported that Skyworth was one of the top-five TV brands by sales revenue in Q1 2025; however, Skyworth hasn’t been able to maintain that position regularly. Panasonic made its announcement at a “launch event,” FlatpanelsHD reported today. During the event, a Panasonic representative reportedly said: Panasonic also said that it will provide support “for all Panasonic TVs sold up to March 2026 and all those available from April.” Skyworth-made Panasonic TVs will be sold in the US and Europe. In the latter geography, the companies are aiming for double-digit market share. Panasonic’s wavering TV business Panasonic has been wavering on its commitment to the TV business for at least 12 years.   When plasma ruled the living room, Panasonic dominated the market. In 2010, Panasonic controlled 40.7 percent of the plasma panel market, beating Samsung (33.7 percent) and LG (23.2 percent), according to research from consultancy DisplaySearch. But in March 2014, Panasonic quit making plasma TVs, pointing to increasing interest in flat-screen LCD TVs and economic challenges derived from the bankruptcy of global investment bank Lehman Brothers. At the time, Panasonic reportedly hadn’t made money off of its popular, high-contrast plasma TVs for years.   That same year, Panasonic started reducing the amount of TV business it conducted in the US. By 2016, it had completely exited the US TV market. In 2021, Panasonic revealed that it would outsource all TV production to an undisclosed third party. This seemed to help increase flexibility and finances. And in 2024, Panasonic returned to the US market with OLED and Mini LED TVs “all designed and developed in Japan.” Still, in February 2025, Panasonic’s president, Yuki Kusumi, said that the firm was “prepared to sell” its TV business “if necessary.” With the Skyworth deal, Panasonic appears to have found a way to drastically reduce the amount of resources it puts into its TV businesses, while still making some money off of Panasonic-branded TVs. The news means there’s virtually no TV production happening in Japan anymore, as other Japanese companies, like Sharp, Toshiba, Hitachi, and Pioneer, have already exited TV production. Earlier this year, Tokyo-based Sony announced that it was selling 51 percent of its home entertainment business, including TVs, to Huizhou, China-headquartered TCL. This all comes as TV manufacturers from South Korea and China control the majority of global TV sales. During the launch event where Panasonic announced its Skyworth partnership, it reportedly showed off two OLED TV prototypes, including one using LG Display’s newest Tandem WOLED panel. So, it may not be long before we see new TV designs carrying the Panasonic logo.

A Malaysian-registered vehicle barrelled through an immigration checkpoint in Johor Bahru (JB) before speeding off towards Singapore, sparking a manhunt for the driver. A video of the incident, which occurred on Feb 22 at about 2.40pm, was shared on the Malaysia-Singapore Border Crossers (MSBC) Facebook group. The 33-second clip shows a black car at the Sultan Abu Bakar Customs, Immigration and Quarantine complex (KSAB), making a sharp turn as a man dressed in black attempts to slow it down.   Undeterred, the driver of the car accelerates while another man chases after it. In another clip, the car is also spotted driving against traffic on the Causeway. Manhunt for driver ensues According to The Star, Assistant Commissioner M. Kumarasan, the Iskandar Puteri officer-in-charge of the police district, said in a statement on Feb 23 that an auxiliary policeman had directed the driver to make a U-turn from the heavy vehicle lane to the car lane.   The driver did not cooperate, and instead accelerated through the immigration checkpoint barrier and four traffic cones before speeding towards the exit point to Singapore. The case is being investigated for mischief, which carries a sentence of at least one year and not more than five years' imprisonment, a fine, or both, if convicted. Mr Kumarasan said the case is also being investigated for reckless and dangerous driving. Offenders face up to five years' jail, a fine of RM5,000 (S$1,630) to RM15,000, and disqualification from holding a driving licence, if convicted. Police added that efforts to locate the suspect are ongoing and urged witnesses to come forward with information.

Molestation cases went up 7.3 per cent in 2025 compared to the year before, according to the latest police's annual crime brief. The number of cases rose to 1,531 compared to 1,427 in 2024. This is despite the decrease in other crimes of concern — shop theft, theft in dwelling and voyeurism.   Of the outrage of modesty cases in 2025, 372 were reported in residential premises, 164 in public transport and 115 in public entertainment outlets. Molestation cases in shopping complexes saw a decline compared to 2024. More than half of the molestation cases in 2025 involved offenders known to the victims, the police added. Overall, last year saw a total of 20,857 cases while 2024 had 19,969, a 4.4 per cent increase. Theft in foreign worker dorms Theft in dwelling saw a 0.9 per cent decrease from 1,514 cases in 2024 to 1,500 in 2025, but the number of cases in foreign worker dormitories jumped 57.4 per cent from 54 to 85 in 2025.   Victims and perpetrators were most often residents sharing the same room, police said. Shop theft still among top offences committed by youth There were 4,109 cases of shop theft, down from 4,237 in 2024. At 19.7 per cent of total physical crime cases, shop theft is still one of the top offences committed by youths arrested in 2025. These cases commonly took place at supermarkets, beauty shops, personal care shops and health and wellness shops, with over half of such cases involving losses below $50. The police attribute the decrease in shop theft cases to the Shop Theft Awareness for Retailers (Star) Programme, which sees the SPF work with retailers to address store risk factors and challenges in implementing theft prevention measures.   As at Dec 31, over 1,100 retail outlets have signed up for Star, including gadget store Challenger which joined the programme last year, while Watsons is exploring the use of artificial intelligence in combating shop theft. Separately, the Singapore Police Force have been collaborating with the Ministry of Education to educate youth through school talks, advisories and other initiatives on various crimes including shop theft. A dedicated crime prevention module will be launched on the Singapore Student Learning Space for Primary 3 to 6 students this year's first term. Voyeurism occurred mostly in residential premises Cases of voyeurism decreased to 486 in 2025 from 519 in 2024, and took place mostly in residential premises. Of the cases reported last year, 146 were in residential premises, 91 in shopping complexes and 48 in public transport.    Members of the public are encouraged to stay informed of the latest crime information, alerts and advisories by signing up for the Community Watch Scheme, downloading the Police@SG mobile app and following the SPF on social media as part of the SaferSG, Together movement.
