A very warm hello to all readers out there! The Asian Opinion(TAO) is a place where you can find thought provoking writing focusing on commentaries and articles on topics like psychology, positivity, education, and also book reviews on both Singaporean and international authors.

There is a strong focus on writing for new to mid career working professionals either finding their footing in the workplace, and also for people who are searching for meaning and purpose in life, and people who are curious about and want to read about a fresh perspective from a Singaporean voice, besides from the saturated western media.

My name is Chloe Tan, and I have 8 years of experience working in book publishing. My work spans contributing both to the writing and the publication process as well as marketing endeavours. I founded TAO to create an avenue to publish my writing work on topics such as self actualisation, happiness, achieving life satisfaction amongst other existential topics.

Fun fact and happy coincidence, TAO in Chinese directly translates to an Eastern philosophy 道, which can mean ‘path’, ‘way’. Tao philosophy is anchored by the tenet of effortless action, which is exactly what and how I feel when I am working on TAO. The time just flies by!

As TAO has just launched on 17 May 2025, I will be updating the content and tweaking the website to optimise your reading experience. Please excuse the odd broken link or clunky design for now.

Thank you for reading and please do comment if you like!
