I'm Mei Tong Kim
or your favourite linguistics nerd.
I'm a Founder.
2024: Built Social Issues Bubble — 12 members, 7 countries, one very stubborn dream.
2026: Built Youth for Sustainable Policy — 20k views, 5 countries, still going.
Someone once asked me why I do what I do. I told them: I'm not doing anything for self-gratification. There is no monetary goal at all. I simply want to help people. That's it.
After all, what is life without experience?
I have this urge — a very consistent, very persistent urge — to put things in the right order. To build systems. To make things work. But equally, to break them when they stop serving people, and grow beyond them entirely. Growing is one of the few things in life that is entirely self-determined. It has nothing to do with age, or experience, or permission. If you want to grow, just grow.
There is no real-life Superman, for my heroes are my parents. Be strong, be kind, independent, and unstoppable in what you love. One day the ball will stop dribbling and the paintbrush will no longer paint — so while the ball still dribbles, while the paint is still wet, give it everything.
- Leading Youth for Sustainable Policy — with my Ukrainian members from 5 countries and counting.
- Absorbing French, Spanish, Korean, and Japanese like a sponge.
Languages are so incredibly fascinating. (Read up on Sociolinguistics!) - Practising Conscious Leadership all day, every day.
- Writing my Children's book on Singaporean Food Heritage.
Interested in illustrating? Email me! - Filming ideas for content creation.
- Building systems, breaking systems, and deciding which ones deserve to be rebuilt.
- Founded Social Issues Bubble — grew it to a 12-person team across 7 countries.
- Side quested so much my CV is 6 pages long RAW.
- Spent a lot of time asking the right questions before I found the right rooms to ask them in.
- Most fanatic lover of Chagee you will ever meet. I will name every ingredient and tell you what tea leaf it is with both eyes closed.
- Obsessed with 野人先生 ice cream. I get it as a treat every time.
- I sketch people. I photograph plants. I have what people call an eye for things — I think I just notice the niche.
- In a parallel life, I am studying Herbology, brewing potions, and talking to animals all afternoon. #Vegan
- Or I'm a professor at Cambridge. Both options are very much on the table. Who knows?
- Starting a creative agency — where strategy meets story, and both actually mean something.
- A seat at the government table. Policy built by people who understand people.
- The best ideas sit at the intersection of art, language, and power. I intend to find them all.
