Fall in love with your career.
Why do people fall in love with their careers?
For us at Youth Asia, here’s why:
1. New Experiences, Learning and Growth
Because we have the profitability and funding – we can be VERY ambitious. This helps us to grow grow grow, making your career a rollercoaster of new experiences. This means you’re getting paid to learn, take on audacious responsibility, and to grow beyond your limits.
2. Life is fun
We only hire people who have the proven ability to… have fun. This ensures you’re surrounded by people who know the meaning of fun, and can bring that into their work.
Not enjoying your work is a sin. You’re going to spend most of your adult life working, might as well have fun with it ;)
3. Get paid to contribute back
We believe in the potential of youths as consumers, active participants, and creators in society, and our businesses are a living testament to this belief. If you are passionate about doing work for the youths, this is the place to get paid to do so.
4. Always moving towards a big, exciting vision
Little plans never excited anyone. And it’s always good to know every little thing you do every day is going to amount to something BIG. But a big vision alone isn’t exciting… you need momentum. After all, action always speaks louder than words. And the past 2 years in Youth Asia, the momentum speaks for itself, and it’s a great feeling for anyone involved.
5. Positive Interesting Motivated People
The team with the best players win, and in this day and age, working with positive, interesting, motivated people will bring out the best in you, no matter who you are.
What we do at Youth Asia
We build and grow business related to the 1.4 billion youth population in Asia. Right now, the core business involves online research, social media advertising, campus marketing, youth festivals and mega projects. Our aim is to become a conglomerate of regional businesses who exist to serve youths, are run by youths and owned by youths (under the age 35).
A selection of people who chose a career @ Youth Asia
While they’re all pretty different, you’ll notice that they all have much in common – big responsibility, passion for their work, and the desire to do something extraordinary!
Nguyen Vu Nguyen (Vietnam)
Originally the programming lead for the Paypal of Vietnam, he came on to volunteer his skills for a project with Youth Asia for 6 weeks. With that experience, he went home, quit his job, said goodbye to friends and family, and brought all his stuff to Malaysia for a full time adventure to shape YouthSays.com’s evolution. He’s a programmer by skillset, an explorer by nature (has lived and worked in over 3 countries), and one of the few people who truly follows his heart.
Mai Amante-Sison (Philippines)
A top AIESEC trainee with a Master’s in Educational Technology and a newlywed, she left her country to explore vast opportunities and possibilities working with Youth Asia full time, taking on new roles and challenges from day 1.

She’s been working with youths all her life. In Dubai, Lithuania, and then Malaysia. She leads the community team by example – by partying during weekday nights while maintaining super productive and capable the next morning.
