CURRENT MISSION

Knowledge is power to the people! So I am making global media more democratic & plural.

ABOUT ME

I am the Founder of Fair Observer, a journal that analyzes the deeper issues, provides context and brings together perspectives from around the world. We have more than 1,500 contributors from over 40 countries and eminent advisers such as John Bruton, the former Irish Prime Minister who began the Northern Irish Peace Process.

I ran away from home at seventeen, have traveled widely and lecture around the world.

PHILOSOPHY

There are more things in heaven and earth than are there in philosophy.

教，学，和分享

Teach: What I know about the world? How politics, history, economics, philosophy and culture intersect?

Learn: Tons of stuff I don't know: science, pop culture and more.

Share: My experiences that are a bit exotic because I grew up with elephants coming to our backyard and now divide time between various countries.
