For 34 years the Swedish-language print magazine SYDASIEN (photo) played an important role to disseminate news and information on South Asia. With popularly written articles on politics, history, literature and culture in the eight countries that consist South Asia (Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka) SYDASIEN was a unique feature in Scandinavia till the magazine closed down in late 2010. Lars Eklund, now SASNET deputy director, was the editor in chief for 25 years, during the period 1982–2007.
However, SYDASIEN has resurfaced in a brand new shape, as a high-quality Internet based web magazine.

Sydasien.se was officially launched on 1 March 2011 by the new editor of the magazine, Ms. Johanna Sommansson (photo), holding an MA in Social Anthropology and a BA in Indology from Stockholm University. Johanna is currently living in India along with her husband Niklas Sommansson, a web designer who has actually created the new web site.
