Malaysiakini (English: "Malaysia Now") is an online news portal in Malaysia which was established in 1999. It is published in Malay, English, Chinese and Tamil, and is among the most read news portals in Malaysia.[1][2]
At the time of its founding in 1999, traditional print and broadcast media were tightly regulated and controlled by the Barisan Nasional government. Malaysiakini claimed it would try to achieve an independent voice without interference and restrictions from shareholders, advertisers or the government.[3]
Malaysiakini is unaffiliated with Malaysianow – a much smaller rival news website that uses the English translation of Malaysiakini as its name.[4]
