Helping Filipinos in Singapore stay informed, connected, and empowered.

Our Story

We started in 2009 with a simple idea: Filipinos in Singapore needed a place of their own — somewhere to find news that matters to them, share experiences, get practical guidance on life and work in Singapore, and feel a little closer to home.

Over the years, FIS has grown from a small online community into one of the largest and most trusted Filipino community platforms in Singapore — spanning our website, Facebook page and group, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and on-ground events.

In 2017, our work was recognised with the Sulo ng Overseas Filipino — Gawad Sulo Award, an honour we share with every kababayan who has been part of this community.

What We Do

  • Community journalism

    Singapore news, policy changes, and guides that actually affect Filipinos here — work permits, MOM updates, cost of living, and more.

  • Content creation

    Vlogs, podcasts, and live streams featuring Filipino stories, community events, and voices you won’t find in the mainstream press.

  • Merch & on-ground activations

    We show up in person — at concerts, gatherings, and community events — because online alone isn’t enough.

  • Product endorsements & partnerships

    We work with brands that respect our community and offer real value to Filipinos in Singapore.

  • Job postings

    Helping Filipino talent find opportunities with employers in Singapore.

Our Mission

To help every Filipino in Singapore feel informed, connected, and empowered — whether you're a professional on an Employment Pass, a domestic worker, a student, or a family building a life here. We tell stories that matter, flag news that affects you, and keep the community close.
