About me.

Hi! My name is Jayson Albano, and I am a Filipino-Chinese journalist from Hong Kong.

I currently work as a senior producer with the South China Morning Post, managing a team to cover breaking APAC news. I have also produced original features from shooting to post-production around the region.

I’ve made several appearances in other media such as Reuters, VICE News, Time Out Hong Kong and TRT World.

In 2019, I directed, edited and produced a short documentary in New Delhi, India about rampant drug addiction among young street kids, and the lack of resources available for them to cope. The film won an award at the Chicago South Asian Film Festival.

I received my Master of Journalism as well as a Bachelor of Arts (Comparative Literature) from the University of Hong Kong.
