A new month/year/decade calls for a change – unfortunately, for Hong Kong’s foreign population, that change in the media we’re given still hasn’t happened. Faced with a Beijing-run newspaper and an overblown free magazine that lost its luster years ago, we’re constantly given new publications that promise so much more than they deliver. Free magazines come and go in this town, and many foolishly attempt to be the next Rolling Stone, the next Vice or the next GQ. Few, if any, give us Hong Kongers what we want: a magazine by the people, for the people, about the people.

Not anymore. Brouhaha is the voice of the people. Launching in January 2010 and distributed around the major hubs of the city, those bold enough to pick it up every month will be presented with a daring new look at our beloved Hong Kong: from tackling social issues that many publications are too scared to approach, to looking far deeper into the local and regional pop culture scene than any magazine has dared attempt, it will force you to sit up and take notice.

With its clean, modern design scheme, and team of young writers and editors all eager to present you with articles, interviews and reviews that challenge the norm, it sets itself far apart from the masses.

We shouldn’t say more than we already have. But we can say you will be impressed, and more importantly, you will make some noise.
