DPA Think Tank

Neutral-Objective Intelligence
Overcome the information war /propaganda.

Defense Politics Asia (DPA) is not just a media outlet, where we are most well known for our media face with our coverage of the Ukraine War on YouTube — but it is our Think Tank side of us that is actually our soul. Our Think Tank / Research / Analysis core is what sets the foundations for our reporting on the Ukraine War. If you appreciate our objective and neutral work on the Ukraine War, then you would be glad to know that we provide Research / Analysis services as part of the Think Tank part of DPA.

Who this is for

Governments, funds, corporations, or even political entities that want an independent and strictly neutral-objective read on the matters of interest (Geopolitics, Economics, Politics, Military, War, etc). We build entirely custom pipelines based on our neutral-balance methodologies to objectively analyze any given issues — free from mainstream media bias or information warfare/propaganda operations talking points.

How it works

1

Brief

Agree on what DPA is commissioned to work on and for how long.

2

Payment

Invoice will be sent and payment will be made before we start any work. No work will be done without payment locking in the commission. It will always be full payment of the contract length (as it constitutes the investment of manpower and resources to the project).

3

Operations

Reports/Analysis will be delivered as per the agreed formats on the agreed schedules. There may be lead time required to the start of some commission (to build up the pipeline and resources to work on specific projects).

Commission DPA
