When Malaysiakini was launched, we believed that independent political reporting was the most important area not being addressed by the mainstream media. In line with our slogan “news and views that matter” and with our limited resources, we believed that Malaysiakini could make most impact in this area.

More recently, Malaysiakini launched Kinibiz, to focus on independent business news, another area we consider lacking. As Malaysiakini grows, we may decide to offer content in other areas, where we believe we can make a difference.
