About

Asiacity.news is an international news project about the lives of ordinary people in Asian cities. We do not cover top-level politics – instead, we show what is happening on the streets, in schools, in markets and in the homes of millions of people.

Many international mass media outlets are focused on big headlines, while real life gets left out of the picture. We decided to change that.

Why are we doing this?
We believe that to understand a country, you have to take a peek into its cities. Beijing and Surabaya, Jeddah and Tokyo. It is in the local news that reflect the actual reality – not shiny, but genuine. What are the residents talking about? What are the concerns of a particular neighborhood? How safe is it to travel there? This is what is important for travelers, explorers, and those who care.

Every hour we collect current local news from reliable city sources and translate it for you, trying to preserve the message of the original text and adapt it to the language of the reader. The website is currently available in three languages: English, German and Russian. Our plan for the future is to expand: more cities, more countries and more languages.

Who are we?
We are a team of enthusiasts who run this project on their own funds and in their free time. We are not affiliated with any political or commercial structures. We have no sponsors and no clients. We do this because we believe in transparency, accessibility of information and the importance of local context.
