New Naratif (Malay for New Narrative) is a Malaysian–based online journalism platform and self-described independent media outlet[1] that publishes content on Southeast Asian current affairs.
[1][2] Founded in 2017, it is managed by Singaporean historian and former athlete Thum Ping Tjin and freelance journalist Kirsten Han.
[3][4] The outlet publishes investigative reporting, academic research, comics, explainers, videos and podcasts in English, Malay and other languages of Southeast Asia.
