Company Profile
MustShareNews.com aims to be the Channel NewsAsia for the Facebook generation. 

We are heavily inspired by media giants like Buzzfeed and Vice, who have figured out and cater to the different consumption patterns of readers of the Facebook generation. Our reporting is factually-accurate, but composed in a light-hearted and relatable way that resonates well with younger Singaporean readers.

We are a relatively new site put together by two successful start-ups in Singapore. Every month, our
content is seen by half a million readers, making us one of the fastest growing sites in Singapore history.
We don't cover all news, but focus instead on covering the most interesting news.

We want to be a news site without any agenda, that reports news that Singaporeans can trust and relate to. We also hope to give those unspoken for a voice, and believe news and media play an important part in the lives of people. 

We believe it is important to report news fairly, accurately and in an easily digestible way.
