Gold 905 is an English-language radio station in Singapore. Owned by the state-owned broadcaster Mediacorp, it broadcasts a classic hits format.
The station traces its origins to the beginning of regulated radio broadcasting in Singapore/Straits Settlements on 1 March 1937; it initially broadcast on AM under the call sign ZHL, and carried programmes in the languages of English, Chinese, Malay, and Tamil. With the gradual expansion of language-based radio services in Singapore, the station would focus on English-language programmes. It was renamed Radio 1 in 1982; it carried 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.
