+Sailor is a suite of Open Language Models tailored for South-East Asia (SEA), focusing on languages such as 🇮🇩Indonesian, 🇹🇭Thai, 🇻🇳Vietnamese, 🇲🇾Malay, and 🇱🇦Lao. 
+Developed with careful data curation, Sailor models are designed to understand and generate text across diverse linguistic landscapes of SEA region. 
+Built from [Qwen 1.5](https://huggingface.co/collections/Qwen/qwen15-65c0a2f577b1ecb76d786524) , Sailor encompasses models of varying sizes, spanning from 0.5B to 14B versions for different requirements. 
+We further fine-tune the base model with open-source datasets to get instruction-tuned models, namedly Sailor-Chat. 
+Benchmarking results demonstrate Sailor's proficiency in tasks such as question answering, commonsense reasoning, and other tasks in SEA languages.

+## Training details
+Sailor is crafted by continually pre-training from language models like the remarkable Qwen 1.5 models, which already has a great performance on SEA languages. 
+The pre-training corpus heavily leverages the publicly available corpus, including 
+[SlimPajama](https://huggingface.co/datasets/cerebras/SlimPajama-627B), 
+[SkyPile](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Skywork/SkyPile-150B), 
+[CC100](https://huggingface.co/datasets/cc100) and [MADLAD-400](https://huggingface.co/datasets/allenai/MADLAD-400).
+
+By employing aggressive data deduplication and careful data cleaning on the collected corpus, we have attained a high-quality dataset spanning various languages. 
+Through systematic experiments to determine the weights of different languages, Sailor models undergo training from 200B to 400B tokens, tailored to different model sizes. 
+The approach boosts their performance on SEA languages while maintaining proficiency in English and Chinese without significant compromise. 
+Finally, we continually pre-train the Qwen1.5-0.5B model with 400 Billion tokens, and other models with 200 Billion tokens to obtain the Sailor models.
+
+## Requirements
+The code of Sailor has been in the latest Hugging face transformers and we advise you to install `transformers>=4.37.0`.
+
+## Quickstart
+
+Here provides a code snippet to show you how to load the tokenizer and model and how to generate contents.
+
+```python
+from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
+device = "cuda" # the device to load the model
+
+model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("sail/Sailor-14B", device_map="auto")
+tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("sail/Sailor-14B")
+
+input_message = "Model bahasa adalah model probabilistik" 
+### The given Indonesian input translates to 'A language model is a probabilistic model of.'
+
+model_inputs = tokenizer([input_message], return_tensors="pt").to(device)
+
+generated_ids = model.generate(
+    model_inputs.input_ids,
+    max_new_tokens=64
+)
+
+generated_ids = [
+    output_ids[len(input_ids):] for input_ids, output_ids in zip(model_inputs.input_ids, generated_ids)
+]
+
+response = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
+print(response)
