"A good mobility system is really like the lifeblood of a city. It makes the city move, it comes alive."

Premesh Chandran is the co-founder and CEO of Malaysiakini.com, Malaysia’s top independent news website, reaching over 8 million readers in English, Malay, Chinese and Tamil.

He is TED Senior Fellow, a recipient of Asia Foundation’s Chang-Lin Tan Fellowship and the Media Personality of the Year 2012.

In 2018, he started his second company - Asia Mobiliti, a next-generation mobility platform, enabling mobility as a service.

We discuss his vision for mobility in Southeast Asia, social housing and how he has taken the entrepreneurial approach to address some of the most difficult problems confronting us.
