About us
ThinkChina is an English language e-magazine with a China focus and powered by SPH Media Limited's flagship Chinese daily Lianhe Zaobao. We publish original reporting, opinion pieces and columns across a wide spectrum of topics, covering political, economic, socio-cultural and technological developments in China and the Greater China region. Our extensive network of Chinese-language journalists and writers are mainly from Singapore, China and other parts of Asia. We seek to bring their nuanced and insightful perspectives to the English-speaking world through thoughtful curation and meticulous translation. This myriad of voices is projected from the unique vantage point of multi-ethnic Singapore - a proverbial little red dot in Southeast Asia. PITCHES & SUBMISSIONS We are open to pitches from analysts and commentators offering global perspectives on China. We are also keen to hear from freelance feature writers, photographers, comic artists or video content producers based in China. If you have an idea or story proposal for commentaries and opinion pieces, feature stories, or cartoons and comics that you would like to share with us, please send us an email at thinkchina@sph.com.sg. For all pitches and submissions, please provide links to previously published pieces if available; your name, email address and contact number for correspondence; and a short author bio stating your current designation and affiliation. Pieces proposed or submissions should not have been published elsewhere. We do accept submissions in Chinese, but the honorarium would be adjusted accordingly in view of the translation work that would need to be done before publication. As we receive a high volume of emails at times, if you do not hear from us within two weeks, please do send your proposals on to other publications.
