At Weekly Malaysia we are committed to delivering timely, accurate and thoughtful journalism that empowers our readers with insight and clarity. We hold ourselves to the highest standards of independence, integrity and transparency in everything we publish.
Weekly Malaysia operates with full editorial autonomy: every decision about what topics we cover and how we present them is made by our editorial team in service of the public interest, not driven by advertisers, sponsors or external pressures.
We believe accuracy and credibility are foundational to our work. Before publication each piece is rigorously reviewed — facts checked, sources validated, editorial oversight applied. If we discover any inaccuracy or error after publication we act as soon as possible, correcting it with full transparency to our readers.
Our reporting is based on credible, verifiable sources. Anonymous sources are used only when essential and when the information concerns a matter of clear public interest and cannot be obtained otherwise, with their confidentiality protected under journalistic ethics. Wherever possible we attribute information clearly so that readers can understand the basis for our reporting.
Opinion and commentary published on Weekly Malaysia reflect the views of the individual authors and do not necessarily represent the views of the publication as a whole. These pieces are clearly labelled as opinion or editorial content to help readers distinguish them from our factual news reporting. We encourage informed, respectful and fact-based discourse.
We welcome reader feedback and believe in accountability. If you notice an error, have a concern about our coverage or wish to provide input, please contact our editorial team. We review every valid submission and publish corrections or clarifications when necessary in a transparent manner.
Our editorial team adheres to the ethical principles of honesty, fairness, respect for privacy and dignity, and a dedication to the public interest. We strictly reject plagiarism, hate speech, misleading narratives or any content intended to deceive or harm our audience.
When Weekly Malaysia publishes sponsored or branded content, it is clearly labelled so that readers are fully aware of its nature. Our commercial operations are kept distinct from our editorial operations to safeguard our independence and preserve reader trust.
We believe that well-informed readers build stronger communities. By publishing independent, accurate and thoughtful journalism, Weekly Malaysia strives to inform, engage and empower our audience every day.
