The Buddhist Channel (BC) was officially launched on October 25, 2004. The BC is actually a “rebranding” exercise which culminated from the demise of the old “Buddhist News Network” (BNN), which began operations in May 8, 2001. Using the latest web technologies on content publication, the BC remains the world’s only dedicated Buddhist news servcies, providing daily updates and in-depth coverage.

Based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, the Buddhist Channel is the brain child of its founder, Lim Kooi Fong. To augment the BC’s premier position as a Buddhist news site, five prominent Buddhist individuals were appointed as members of the “International Advisory Panel (IAP)”.With the incorporation of expert advisers, the BC is will not just become a Buddhist dedicated news channel, but more of a virtual and cross cultural bridge between adherents of the Buddha Dharma all over the world.
