The Irrawaddy

The Irrawaddy Publishing Group (IPG) was founded in 1993 by a group of Myanmar journalists living in exile in Thailand. The Irrawaddy is a leading source of reliable news, information, and analysis on Myanmar and the Southeast Asian region.

From its inception, Irrawaddy has been an independent news media group, unaffiliated with any political party, organization or government. The Irrawaddy is neither an advocacy group nor an NGO campaigning for particular causes. We believe that media must be free and independent and we strive to preserve press freedom.

The Irrawaddy inspires democratic values via the publication of news that is censored in Burma. We work with international media and media inside Myanmar, to provide uncensored information on the on-going crisis in Myanmar for both the Myanmar and international community.

Irrawaddy new is accessible on your Android phone or tablet. Staying informed has never been this quick, easy or enjoyable.
