iMAP 2023: State of Internet Censorship in 10 countries

On 13th October 2023, our long-term partner, Sinar Project, published 10 new research reports on internet censorship in Southeast Asia and Hong Kong (China) in collaboration with their Internet Monitoring and Action Project (iMAP) partners. These reports are based on OONI data collected between July 2022 to June 2023 from 10 countries: Cambodia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Thailand, Timor-Leste and Vietnam.

Internet Monitoring Action Project (iMAP) aims to establish regional and in-country networks that monitor network interference and restrictions to the freedom of expression online in Southeast Asia and Hong Kong (China) in collaboration with national digital rights partners in these countries.

As a result of this work, they published iMAP State of Internet Censorship research reports for:

• Cambodia

• Hong Kong (China)

• Indonesia

• Malaysia

• Myanmar

• Philippines

• Thailand

• Timor-Leste
