History

Element Magazine has been described as the first alternative high-fashion and lifestyle men's journal with featured stories connected to the Asian LGBTQI community in particular, and it is launched and based in Singapore. [1] [2] [3] The magazine was established by Noel Ng and Hiro Mizuhara in March 2013. [4] The decision to launch the magazine on digital platforms enabled the publishers to side-step Singapore's regulation of print media and meant it had no need to obtain a media license. It uses an Internet host server in the United States. [1] [5] Normative and positive depictions of gay people in mainstream media are currently banned in Singapore by the Media Development Authority (MDA). [6] The magazine boasts an average digital circulation of more than 15,000 since its launch. It is also the organizer of Asia Pink Awards, a regional Awards event that celebrates those campaigning for LGBTQI acceptance in Asia [7] [8]

Editorial

Element Magazine often promotes and features sexual health related contents and campaigns besides fashion and lifestyle. In 2013, it launched a visual campaign to promote HIV/AIDS awareness in World AIDS Day 2013. [9]
