The Oriental Daily, founded on September 29, 2002, by Datuk Sri Lau Hui Kang under the KTS Group (啟德行企業集團), shifted to an online-only format on April 16, 2021, after 18 years of print publication. The news outlet claims to provide “neutral, timely, and credible” news coverage with both simplified and traditional Chinese character options. According to unspecified independent traffic monitoring reports, the website is among Malaysia’s most visited Chinese-language news sites, claiming approximately 50 million monthly page views and over 4.5 million unique visitors. The KTS Group also owns other media outlets, including Sin Hua Daily (詩華日報), established in 1952, The Borneo Post, Utusan Borneo, and TEA FM radio station.
