Asia Times Online (abbr. "ATol") is an Internet-only news and commentary publication that reports and examines geopolitical, political, economic and business issues from an Asian perspective. ATol is published in two language editions, English and Chinese.

Asia Times Online was founded at the beginning of 1999 and is incorporated and duly registered in Hong Kong. It derives its revenues from advertising and the resale of original content to other publications and news services.

Historically, in publication policy and editorial outlook, Asia Times Online is the successor to Asia Times, a Hong Kong/Bangkok-based daily print newspaper founded in 1995, which ceased publication on June 26, 1997, a week before the devaluation of Thailand's baht kicked off the Asian financial crisis.

Asia Times has gone on to be one of Asia's most popular news sites, attracting upwards of 100,000 unique readers every day.
