Flora Jing Lin Ng named WAC's most active Country Reporter of June

World Architecture Community proudly announces that WAC's China Country Reporter Flora Jing Lin Ng has been named as the most active Country Reporter of June for successfully completing at least three articles in the WAC's Country Editors/Reporters Program.

Based between Shanghai, Singapore and London, Flora Jing Lin Ng has been reporting from China since November 2020. Flora has been the most active Country Reporter since she attended the program. 

WAC's voluntary-based Country Editors/Reporters Program was initiated in December 2017, aiming to promote local architecture, knowledge, local stories and recent developments from different parts of the world to WAC's global audience. In addition to elevate local knowledge, the program introduces new volunteer journalists and writers as the face of their country. Recently, WAC announced 16 WAC Country Editors/Reporters who write most viewed stories from all around. 

With the program, WAC's Country Reporters/Editors, who get the first information from their local geography, arrange interviews with the architects, attend the openings of buildings and have the first documents about the projects. In this way, the program lays the foundations of an ongoing communication network between architects and WAC's Country Reporters/Editors, as well as sharing new developments from the local geography with WAC's huge audience. 

The program is composed of architects, architecture students, academicians, writers, experienced journalists and new journalist candidates. Currently, WAC has 28 Country Reporters and 5 Country Editors distributed to 21 different countries
