The morning news program, Nuansa Pagi was renamed Seputar Indonesia Pagi. The lunchtime news program, Buletin Siang renamed Seputar Indonesia Siang. The late night news program, Buletin Malam was renamed Seputar Indonesia Malam. The main evening edition retained the Seputar Indonesia name due to the historical context.
