History edit

Under Jose Burgos, Jr. edit

The newspaper's name was derived from the Filipino word that means "free". In 1981, Malaya was founded by Jose Burgos, Jr.[3] as a weekly, and later daily written in the Tagalog language. It eventually began publishing content in English language in 1983, when President Ferdinand Marcos closed down WE Forum, a sister publication of Malaya. It continued to fight the administration of Marcos during its last years in power. During the events that lead to Marcos' ouster, Malaya published one million copies daily, a feat never been done before in the history of newspaper publishing in the Philippines.[4]

Under Amado Macasaet edit

After the EDSA Revolution, Amado P. Macasaet, veteran journalist and then Business Editor of Malaya, became the new owner of Malaya. Macasaet also owned two tabloids, Abante and Abante Tonite.
