Andrew Wong

Bio

Andrew Wong is a journalist at The Straits Times in Singapore, where he contributes to the newsroom's daily coverage of national news, society, and the regional stories that shape life in the city-state. His byline tracks fast-moving developments alongside the kind of human-centred reporting that has long anchored ST's place as Singapore's paper of record, with stories that regularly travel through the wider SPH Media network and into syndication partners across Asia News Network. Andrew joined ST as part of a generation of journalists rebuilding how a two-century-old masthead reaches readers across print, digital, and social platforms. He works alongside a deep bench of ST reporters covering politics, business, society, and culture, and his growing portfolio of bylines reflects the breadth that a general news beat at a national paper demands. Andrew is connected across the Singapore journalism community and brings a steady, reader-first instinct to a beat where speed and accuracy both have to land at the same time.
