About Us

Yup, this is it, the whoooole operation, going strong since January 2009.   Just two guys, a set of chopsticks and a perry-winkle blue bowl full of pills: the team responsible for bringing you important healthcare stories from Southeast Asia.

(Please do notice that the bowl of pills remains full day after day.  We only dispense the goods, we don’t take them ourselves).

Below that perry-winkle bowl you can find our mission and probably everything else you care to know about this site.  But, in case that’s not enough, here’s some more stuff about the site’s founders that you may not know, but still might find useful for looking up on the Google Human Search Engine -

Damjan DeNoble:

Expert at making coffee, slowly answering emails, correctly executing left turns. I “undergraduated” from Duke in 2007, then lived in Beijing for 2+ years while studying Chinese and working.

Currently a University of Michigan Law School Student, I periodically  write about Southeast Asia’s healthcare challenges with overall predominance given to China matters.  I also write  commentary on a somewhat wider range of issues over at  china/divide. Follow my private Twitter stream here.

James Flanagan:

After a few years of living in Singapore, James headed to Montreal to study at McGill where he received a B.Com in 2006. He jumped on the first plane back to Asia and landed in Beijing.

After trying his hands at a couple of different projects, he focused on developing a consulting firm focusing on Asian IT/Biotech firms.  Currently, James Flanagan is on the board of The Beijing Rotaract Club, and spends most of his time working on TedxBeijing 2010 with his laptop, in Beijing, PRC.
