Gold 905 is an English-language radio station that broadcasts in Singapore. Owned by the state-owned broadcaster Mediacorp, it provides a classic hits format.
The station's origins date to the beginning of regulated radio broadcasting in Singapore; it initially broadcast on AM under call sign ZHL, and carried programmes in English, Chinese, Malay, and Tamil. With the gradual expansion of language-based radio services in Singapore, the station focused on English-language programmes. It was renamed Radio 1 in 1982; it offered a full service format until 1998, when news programming was relocated to the new NewsRadio 93.8, and 90.5 relaunched as an oldies station.
