It is independent of all governments and major media enterprises. It is open to contributions not only from journalists but from professionals in fields such as finance, diplomacy, science and the arts. It has no ideology other than a belief in the benefits of a free media. It will not publish editorials but give free rein to diverse opinions," says the founders' statement on the site.〔(''Asia Sentinel'' - About Us )〕 == Establishment == Headquartered in Hong Kong, it was founded by four senior expatriate journalists with long experience in the region.
