Identify the source
Identify the original source, date and geographic scope of a story. A programme page, interview and market report support different kinds of claims.

How we report
Coverage separates announced plans, confirmed launches and our own observations. Platforms, regional access and commercial details should be checked against a primary source.
Before you confirm
Keep the agreed scope, timing and next contact in one place. A written summary makes it easier to return to the decisions without relying on scattered messages.
Check what the source actually confirms and what remains a plan or interpretation. Attribute statements and preserve the distinction between Malaysia, Southeast Asia and other markets.
The sequence worth agreeing
Verify the context
Check what the source actually confirms and what remains a plan or interpretation. Attribute statements and preserve the distinction between Malaysia, Southeast Asia and other markets.
Separate fact and analysis
Separate attributed facts, editorial analysis and commercial material. A headline should reflect the evidence rather than enlarge the claim for attention.
Publish and correct
Publish with useful context and a clear correction channel. New information may require an update; preserve the article’s original scope and explain material changes.
Changes and follow-up
New evidence may justify an update or correction. Identify the original article, the precise claim and a dated source; changes should explain the new information without silently expanding the original story’s scope.
When preparing an article, record the claim, source and date before drafting the interpretation. Check whether an announcement describes a plan or a completed action. If a correction is needed later, preserve enough context for readers to understand what changed and why the original passage was updated. Keep agreed details together and identify the contact for practical questions. A clear record makes a change easier to discuss without losing earlier decisions.
A useful regional reading desk
Malaysian and Southeast Asian gaming includes development, publishing, communities and esports infrastructure. Coverage should connect those topics without suggesting that the publication operates clubs or competitions. Corrections, source enquiries and sponsorship proposals belong in clearly identified editorial channels. Paid material must not be disguised as independent journalism.
