INTERNET RESOURCES
Southeast Asian studies: Online resources
C&RL News, February 2003
Vol. 64 No. 2
by Lisa Klopfer
Southeast Asia is recognized as a political and geographical region, but explorations on the Internet delineate other possible boundaries and categories. Many Web sites cluster by function (commerce, education, politics) rather than region. The business, commerce and news Web sites, for example, tend to encompass a virtual network of larger cities and production areas in East and Southeast Asia that does not correspond to a single region. The culture and nature sites are also not as much regional as archipelagic, hopping from one park or ethnic enclave to the next. While commercial interests lean towards the magnet of East Asia, many of the academic centers are in Australia, the United States, and former colonial powers.The observant Web surfer will also note that there are radical differences in the quality and quantity of Web sites from Southeast Asian countries, depending on the host country's size, wealth, ability to function at least in part in English, and on the level of censorship or tolerance for free speech. At one end of the extreme, the new country of East Timor is mostly represented on the Web as a human rights issue, while the largest country, Indonesia, has multiple .id sites and a rich range of news, arts, and sciences represented in both English and Indonesian (but not much yet in regional languages of Javanese, Minangkabau, Acehnese, Batak, etc.).
This article cites resources for the following countries: Brunei, Burma (Myanmar), Cambodia (Kampuchea), East Timor, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. I have omitted sites that are only about the Vietnam War. I have selected resources that I consider to be most significant for academic studies, with a slight emphasis on Web sites that are more likely to be missed or overlooked in a simple search. In selecting Web sites from the ever-growing pool, I considered navigability and design as well as currency and the quality of content.
Internet search engines
Global search engines and Web directories like Google (http://www.google.com) do a good job for most Southeast Asian sites in English, Indonesian, or Malay. For languages that use other fonts, it is useful to go to specific search pages such as those listed on Search Engine Colossus at http://www.searchenginecolossus.com/.
Electronic lists
• Committee on Research Materials on Southeast Asia List (CORMOSEA). Hosted by Ohio University, this list is only accessible by e-mail. For more information, e-mail Kent Mulliner (owner of the list) mulliner@ohio.edu. To subscribe, send a message to listserv@ohio.edu and in the body of the message type “subscribe cormosea your full name.”
• H-Southeast Asia List. Also hosted by Michigan State University, this list is part of H-Net Humanities & Social Sciences OnLine. It focuses on the history of Southeast Asia, posting discussion logs, book reviews, job announcements, and events. Unlike SEASIA-L, archived messages may be read on the Web without logging in. Access: http://www2.h-net.msu.edu/~seasia/.
• Southeast Asia List. This list, hosted by Michigan State University, distributes news on Southeast Asia events, announcements of conferences, publications, and calls for papers, and other items of interest dealing with Southeast Asia. To subscribe, send a message to listserv@msu.edu containing the text “subscribe SEASIA-L your full name.” Or subscribe via the Web. Access: http://list.msu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=seasia-l&A=1.
Gateways
• AsiaSource. This huge portal is sponsored by the Asia Society. It links to news, business resources, resources for  teachers, a database of Asian foods, and recipes. If you only want to visit one site for Southeast Asia, this is the one. Searching the site is not as helpful as browsing deeper into the collections by clicking on links. Access: http://www.asiasource.org/.
• Asiaville. The site offers selected links to business and cultural information for most Asian countries, including all of Southeast Asia, except East Timor. Click on “sitemap” for a list of countries. Access: http://www.asiaville.com.
• East and Southeast Asia: Net Resources. Maintained by Robert Y. Eng of the University of Redlands, this site  provides pages of Internet resources with an emphasis on political issues and history. While slightly less comprehensive than some of the Southeast Asia WWW Virtual Library pages, these have the advantage of being more frequently updated. Access: http://newton.uor.edu/Departments&Programs/AsianStudiesDept/.
• Library of Congress Country Studies/Area Handbook Series. The Web site contains online versions of country studies previously published by the Federal Research Division of the Library of Congress, a program sponsored by the U.S. Army. The historical overviews are useful, but researchers should note the publication dates, as some of these works are no longer current. Access: http://memory.loc.gov/frd/cs/.
• SEAsite—Southeast Asian Languages and Cultures. This site, sponsored by Northern Illinois University (NIU), is an excellent starting place for Southeast Asian studies. The sections about countries are rich, particularly for language studies; the site hosts a number of online lecture notes and images from NIU professors, and there is a trivia quiz game. Access: http://www.seasite.niu.edu/.
• Southeast Asia WWW Virtual Library. This directory keeps track of Web information sources for the Southeast Asian section of the Asian Studies WWW Virtual Library. This is a starting place for exploration, but pages vary in how well they are maintained. The most useful information is not regional, but country specific. The site links to specific countries’ pages maintained by other participants in the WWW Virtual Library Project. Access: http://iias.leidenuniv.nl/wwwvl/southeast.html.

Collections and bibliographical resources
• Abia: South and Southeast Asia Art and Archeology Index. This online database continues the “Annual Bibliography of Indian Archaeology.” It indexes scholarly monographs, articles in periodicals, Ph.D. theses, and relevant grey literature in multiple languages. The interface is difficult to manage and, at the time of evaluation, the help files were not accessible. Nonetheless, a simple “all fields” search generates useful and unusual citations. Access: http://www.abia.net/.
• ANU Library Southeast Asian Serials. This database is from Australia National University in collaboration with the library of the Royal Institute of Linguistics and Anthropology (KITLV) in Leiden, the Netherlands. The index covers 130 journals published in Southeast Asia (chiefly Indonesia), Australia, Europe, and the United States. The earliest entries are from 1990. Keywords for searching are in English, even when the record is for material in Indonesian or a European language. Search by title, author, keyword, or year of publication. The results include a full bibliographic record and (in some cases) options to order the source from ANU or KITLV. Access: http://database.anu.edu.au/asia/indo/new/.
 • Berkeley South/Southeast Asia Library Service (SSEAL). While this site is primarily focused on the collections at University of California-Berkeley, it includes a solid women’s studies bibliography, as well as links to the major Southeast Asia journals, libraries, and book dealers. Access: http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/SSEAL/SoutheastAsia/.
• Digital Asia. A cooperative project of the Ohio State University Libraries, the University of Minnesota Libraries, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison Libraries, the collection consists of annotated links to freely available (but difficult to locate) Web documents that have been selected for their use in higher education and research. While the Southeast Asia portion of this collection is relatively small (under 100 items), the benefit of the database is that every item is selected and described by experts, and may be browsed or searched by keyword or by subject heading. Access: http://digitalasia.library.wisc.edu/.
• The Digital Initiative Program, University of Washington Libraries. This site hosts searchable image  databases from a variety of regions including Southeast Asia on themes that include exploration, labor, art and architecture and the natural world. The databases may be browsed, searched individually or all searched at once. Images include photographs, documents, slide shows and illustrations. Access: http://content.lib.washington.edu/index.html.
• Modern Literature of Southeast Asia. This page is maintained by Teri Shaffer Yamada of Comparative World Literatures & Classics at California State University-Long Beach. It offers a selected bibliography with emphasis on short stories, and a guide for educators interested in adding Southeast Asian literature to their syllabi. Access: http://members.freespeech.org/southeast-asian-literature/resources/.
• SouthEast Asia images and Texts project (SEAiT). This project began in 1995, but does not seem to have progressed very far. The concept was to create a database of images linked to descriptive text for educational purposes. To date, only photographs from the Philippines are available. They can be searched by theme, keyword, collection, and may be viewed in two different sizes. Access: http://xirs.library.wisc.edu/etext/seait/.
• World History Archives. The collection of Internet documents (including postings to electronic lists and newspaper articles) that have been saved onto the World History Archives site have been selected to support research into social history with an emphasis on the working class. Best viewed in Netscape. Access: http://www.hartford-hwp.com/archives/.
Media and Internet
• Asia Web Watch. A fascinating, if sometimes quirky, collection of essays and data on Web functions and users in Asia, compiled and mostly written by T. Matthew Ciolek. Access: http://www.ciolek.com/Asia-Web-Watch/main-page.html.
• Southeast Asia Media. A project of Ohio University, this site gathers information and resources on the role of media in Southeast Asian societies. It includes critical analyses of all forms of news media in Southeast Asia, with links to Web resources on media and NGOs. Access: http://www.seamedia.org/.
Biology and Geography
• ASEAN Review of Biodiversity and Environmental Conservation (ARBEC). This is primarily a Malaysian site, but for those interested in natural sciences, the online exhibits will be pleasing. The "multimedia atlas" is disappointingly not interactive; it is simply a set of links organized by region. The "scientific reports" are mostly lists of botanical species in various Malaysian nature preserves. There are a number of malfunctioning links on this site, but the exhibit of lizards is worth the few empty clicks. Access: http://www.arbec.com.my/.
• Southeast Asian Deltas: research and reference site. Four delta areas are covered: Ayeyarwady (still under development), Chao Phraya, Mekong, and Red River. Each area has a description of the geographical area with maps and photographs, a database of research projects, lists of specialists with e-mail contact information, and a large bibliography (a small number of papers and statistics sets can be downloaded). Access: http://www.ku.ac.th/delta/.
Individual countries
Brunei
• BruNet. This is a comprehensive Internet service offering e-mail hosting and advertising as well as listings for news, tourism, and commerce resources. Access: http://www.brunet.bn/.
• Government of Brunei Darussalam Official Web site. This site has English and Bahasa Brunei (Malay) content, with links to all the government ministries. It includes maps, an official history of the country, and online official news in both languages. Access: http://www.brunei.gov.bn/index.htm.
Burma (Myanmar)
• Bibliography of Secondary Burma Studies Literature. Created by Michael W. Charney, this is a very large PDF file (the document is more than 130 pages), so viewing it over a telephone connection is not recommended. Access: http://www.seastudies.org/burmastudies/secondary.htm.
• Free Burma. This site does not hide its political message, although it is difficult to determine who exactly maintains the page. Access: http://www.ibiblio.org/freeburma/. It is funded in part by the Soros Foundation, which hosts its own site, The Burma Project, which contains current information on human rights issues in Burma, as well as links to like-minded organizations. Access: http://www.burmaproject.org.
• Irrawaddy. This is an English-language online magazine published by exiled Burmese covering popular culture, politics, and business. There are interviews with leading intellectuals, such as Vaclav Havel and Aung San Suu Kyi. Some articles are available without subscription. The site may not load properly in Netscape browsers. Access: http://www.irrawaddy.org/.
• Myanmar.com. In contrast to the previous three sites, Myanmar.com is an officially sanctioned portal to news and government resources. Access: http://www.myanmar.com/.
• SEAsite Burmese. Part of the Northern Illinois University site, this Web page has excellent language and culture resources and a good set of links to Burmese tourism pages. Access: http://www.seasite.niu.edu/Burmese/.
• Selective Works on Myanmar History, Culture, Archeology and Literature After Independence. This subject guide from the University of Washington Libraries has just arrived on the Web and is still being built. It includes full-text English-language articles in PDF format and a set of short biographies of major figures in recent Burmese history. Best viewed with Internet Explorer. Access: http://www.lib.washington.edu/asp/myanmar/main.asp.
Cambodia
• Cambodia in Modern History: Beauty and Darkness. This site is maintained by Bruce Sharp, an American who is married to a Cambodian exile. It contains a small collection of essays, personal histories (in English), and photographs documenting the Pol Pot years and its aftermath into the present time. Clearly a labor of love, it is not comprehensive, but is compelling. Access: http://www.mekong.net/cambodia/.
• Cambodian Genocide Program. On a larger scale, Yale University’s Cambodian Genocide Program documents the horror that ended 1.7 million lives. There are links to full-text newspaper and journal articles and photograph collections. The core of the site is made of up databases: a bibliographic collection containing records of nearly 3,000 primary and secondary documents dealing with atrocities in the Khmer Rouge regime; a biographic index of more than 19,000 records on Khmer Rouge military and political leaders and some victims of the Khmer Rouge; and a photographic database of more than 5,000 prisoner mug shots taken at the Tuol Sleng Prison. Access: http://www.yale.edu/cgp/.

• East Timor Action Group. East Timor Action Group is one of the leading organizations supporting the independence of East Timor. The main advantage of its Web site for academic users is the large set of links to other East Timor and Indonesia sites. Access: http://etan.org/resource/websites.htm.
• InfoTimor. This site is in the Portuguese language, but most of the links are in English or lead to English sites. The emphasis is on socioeconomic and demographic data. Access: http://pascal.iseg.utl.pt/~cesa/infotimor.html.

Philippines
• Tagalog 2002. Tagalog 2002 is much more than a language resource.

Singapore
• KnowledgeNet Singapore. This site bills itself as the “Authoritative Singapore History Site.” It bases the authority in part on its association with the National Archives of Singapore. This sophisticated site presents multiple databases of text and images through three major entryways: biographies, landscapes, and chronologies. There is also a forum for students, an e-journal with full- text articles (some of them reprinted from published sources), and links to a small number of unusual Singapore history Web pages (such as the Germans in Singapore). Access: http://www.knowledgenet.com.sg/.
• Little Speck. This is a quirky news and analysis site created by Singapore journalist Seah Chiang Nee. It includes editorials that he originally published in the Malaysian newspaper Sunday Star as well as selected articles from a variety of international news sources.

Access: http://thanglong.ece.jhu.edu/vhvn.html.
• Vietnamese Perspectives on the War in Vietnam. This is a book-length annotated bibliography of works in English as of 1996. Hosted on the Web by Yale University and written by John C.
