unsubject (ʌnˈsʌbdʒɪkt): as a verb, it means to remove from subjugation; as an adjective, it means not subject to, not subjected.

Welcome to Unsubject, an exploration across a range of topics. As a lifelong learner, I’ve always been driven by curiosity and a desire to challenge conventional thinking.

My writing journey began with Apple Daily, where I contributed opinion columns on economics, politics, and public policy, particularly from the perspective of Hong Kong’s unique position in the world. When Apple Daily was forced to close in 2021, I continued writing and determined to engage my fellow Hong Kongers in meaningful conversations about freedom and the future.

Over time, I realized that many of the ideas I explored were just as relevant to a global audience.

Some of my subscribers asked, "Why don’t you write in English?"

And that’s how Unsubject was born—a blog where I explore topics ranging from the China to global affairs, economics, public policy, technology, and beyond. Here, I aim to share alternative perspectives on the trends and forces that are shaping our world today.

I invite you to join me on this journey of inquiry. If you enjoy the content, consider supporting Unsubject by becoming a subscriber.
