About Us

AsiaDaily.org is an independent personal project, launched in June 2025 and run by a small team in the European Union. Its aim is to help fight misinformation about Asia: we check the facts of each story against multiple sources, and explain to a general audience what the news says and what it means.

Asia Daily is not a news aggregator. Each article brings together what many reports say about a story, checks it against them, adds what official sources show beyond the news, and explains it all in plain words: neither a dense text for specialists nor a short item without substance.

Our Mission

  • Fight misinformation by checking facts against multiple sources and correcting errors quickly when they are found
  • Explain the news in plain language: what happened, the context behind it, and its implications
  • Make Asia accessible to readers around the world, in English and in 17 other languages
  • Stay balanced, with a neutral tone and openness about how we work

Our Coverage

We cover countries across Asia, from China, Japan and South Korea to Southeast Asia and India, and topics from politics and the economy to society, technology, science, health, culture, sports and travel.

How We Work

Asia Daily is written with AI by our editorial team. Each article goes through these steps:

  • Research. We read many reports on each story, from different outlets and countries, rather than relying on a single one.
  • Official sources. We look for the source behind the news, such as the ruling, statement, data, report or study itself, from government bodies, courts, statistics offices, international organisations, universities and journals. We read it and link to it in the article.
  • Fact-checking. We check each story's facts against those sources where we can, and against the official source when there is one.
  • Writing. AI writes the article from that research, following our editorial guidelines: plain, accessible words, a neutral tone, and what happened, the context behind it, and what it changes for the people and places involved.
  • Completing. An editorial check then lists what the article still lacks, such as background, figures or what comes next. What is missing is looked for and added.
  • Review. The editorial team reviews and edits the English article. Asia Daily holds editorial responsibility for everything we publish.
  • Translation. Articles are translated automatically into 17 other languages. Translations are not reviewed one by one; the English article is the reference version.
  • Corrections. We correct errors when they are found. Readers can request a correction with evidence, such as a link to a reliable source or a document, through our contact form.

Every article is signed “Written with AI by Asia Daily”, and every translation says that it was translated automatically.

Why There Are No Individual Bylines

Articles are signed “Written with AI by Asia Daily” rather than with individual names: AI does the writing, and the Asia Daily team researches, reviews, and stands behind every article.

Independence and Funding

Asia Daily is not run for profit, and the team’s work on it is voluntary. It has no political affiliation and is not funded by any government, party, or company. Advertising on the site is intended only to cover its operating costs, and advertisers have no say in what we publish.

Asia Daily is operated from Paris, France, by a publisher registered in France under SIREN 928 982 909.
