The "Nanyang Sin-Chew Lianhe Zaobao" (zh-sp|s=联合早报|p=liánhé zǎo bào; literally "United Morning Paper"), commonly abbreviated as Lianhe Zaobao, is the largest Singapore-based Chinese newspaper with a daily circulation of about 200,000 copies on weekdays and 220,000 on Sundays. Published by the Singapore Press Holdings (SPH), it was formed on 16 March 1983 as a result of a merger between the "Nanyang Siang Pau (Singapore)" and the "Sin Chew Jit Poh (Singapore)", two of Singapore's oldest Chinese newspapers. The paper establishes itself as a serious broadsheet with extensive local news coverage, while international news tend to be largely centered on the East Asian region.

The newspaper is establishing a regional presence for itself, with subscriptions for its print edition from Southeast Asia, China, Hong Kong as well as organisations such as the United Nations. Its regionalisation drive was given a shot in the arm especially when the online version of the paper, Zaobao.com, was launched on August 1995 under the name of "Lianhe Zaobao Online". Today, it serves as a news portal drawing news not just from the Lianhe Zaobao, but also from other Chinese newspapers in the region, numbering as much as 100 sources in total.
