The New Sabah Times was a newspaper in Sabah, Malaysia. The Sabah Times commenced publication on 21 January 1953, published by Donald Stephens (later Tun Fuad Stephens) and had a daily circulation of approximately 1000. It was the only English-language daily newspaper. The North Borneo News, first published in 1948 in Sandakan was a fortnightly, then weekly periodical with a circulation of approximately 750. It mainly reported Advisory Council news, excerpts from other newspapers and some local and overseas news. Donald Stephens was a reporter for the publication. It began publishing daily in April 1954 but soon amalgamated with the Sabah Times later in 1954 under joint editorship. It included a page of romanised Malay and Dusun to give it wider appeal and increased its circulation.{{fact|date=December 2020}}

In March 1995, the newspaper shut down. In March 1998, the newspaper was acquired by Inna Kinabalu Sdn Bhd. and revived as the New Sabah Times. In late December 2020, the newspaper's management announced that the New Sabah Times was shutting down again due to declining circulation and advertising revenue.{{cite news |last1=Madi |first1=Emin |title=Farewell, New Sabah Times |url=https://www.theedgemarkets.com/article/farewell-new-sabah-times |access-date=30 December 2020 |work=The Edge |agency=Bernama |date=30 December 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201230044049/https://www.theedgemarkets.com/article/farewell-new-sabah-times |archive-date=30 December 2020|url-status=live}}{{cite news |title=Farewell, New Sabah Times |url=https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/2020/12/30/farewell-new-sabah-times/1935938 |access-date=30 December 2020 |work=Malay Mail |date=30 December 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201230110022/https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/2020/12/30/farewell-new-sabah-times/1935938 |archive-date=30 December 2020|url-status=live}}
