It is printed in tabloid format, with some complaints about the pullout sections making the newspaper too disorganised. Its other major competitor is the New Straits Times, a tabloid (the broadsheet version was discontinued in March, 2005), with another English-language tabloid, The Sun, also grabbing readers.
