I hate covering layoffs. You don’t have to look far to see why — just look at the sorry state of the media. But it comes with the territory, so here I am.

You’re reading a paid version of The Malaysianist, a newsletter on money and power by writer and journalist Emmanuel Samarathisa.

I run monthly and annual subscriptions. There’s also the atas or founding member tier where you get all the perks of an annual subscription and more, such as an annual or founder’s report and insight into how this little corner of the internet fared throughout the year.

Group subscriptions are on the table, if you’re mulling over purchases for your organisation or for family members.
