The Times of Jumland prioritizes reporting on issues that mainstream media often overlook or choose not to cover.
The Times of Jumland is an independent digital publication dedicated to reporting stories that often fall outside the focus of mainstream media. The publication gives particular attention to human rights, Indigenous communities, and underreported regions in South and Southeast Asia, while situating these stories within broader global contexts. Founded on the principles of accuracy, integrity, and accountability, The Times of Jumland delivers timely news, in-depth analysis, and carefully reported features across politics, human rights, world affairs, culture, faith, travel, and opinion. Emphasis is placed on context over speed, examining why events matter, who they affect, and what is commonly left unreported. Through investigative reporting, grounded analysis, and field-based storytelling, The Times of Jumland seeks to inform readers with clarity and purpose. The platform exists to document realities, question power, and ensure that overlooked stories are not lost to silence.
Years of Independent Reporting
Focus Regions Covered
The Times of Jumland is developed and edited as an independent digital publication, supported by a growing network of volunteer contributors and field reporters. Reporting and inputs currently come from the Chittagong Hill Tracts of Bangladesh—including Bandarban, Rangamati, and Khagrachari—as well as from Tripura, Mizoram, and Arunachal in India. Contributors are also based in Japan, South Korea, Australia, and Canada, allowing the platform to combine local observation with an international perspective. All contributions are reviewed and edited under a single editorial standard to ensure accuracy, ethical reporting, and consistency. While Jumland remains intentionally lean, its reporting reflects collective ground-level insight and cross-border awareness rather than institutional scale.
The mission of The Times of Jumland is to report overlooked and underreported stories with accuracy and context, with particular attention to the Chittagong Hill Tracts and its Indigenous and diaspora communities.
The vision of The Times of Jumland is to build a trusted platform for human rights–focused journalism that connects local realities to global understanding. By supporting responsible reporting from underrepresented regions and across the diaspora, the publication seeks to contribute to informed public discourse, challenge silence around injustice, and preserve stories that might otherwise remain unseen.
I am glad that The Times of Jumland is born to tell the untold stories of the Chittagong Hill Tracts.Â
