Come up with an idea

Mekong Citizen is a place for stories from all corners of Southeast Asia. As long as the story you'd like to tell is related to the environment, go for it. Develop the story. Ask your professors, advisors, or colleagues and friends what they think.

Reach out to people

If you're a more experienced journalist, you know that the people you interview are the core of your story. If you're interested in telling the story of changing agricultural practices in Isaan, find farmers to interview.
