Genevieve Woo

In 2015, Woo rejoined Mediacorp and currently presents News 5 on Mediacorp Channel 5 and News Now on Channel NewsAsia.

She left Channel NewsAsia in 2014 and joined Hyflux, a Singaporean company specializing in water engineering on April 2, 2014 as the Senior Vice President, Corporate Marketing and Communications.

Another film, A Month of Hungry Ghosts, which Woo and Kern co-produced, made its debut in local cinemas on August 7, 2008. The feature film captures the rituals and performances throughout an entire seventh-lunar-month Hungry Ghost Festival in Singapore. A Month of Hungry Ghosts was nominated for Best Film at the inaugural Singapore Film Awards at the 22nd Singapore International Film Festival.

In 2007, Woo co-produced a short film called The Mitre Spell, which weaves a whimsy tale around the mysteriously spooky, colonial-era Mitre Hotel off Killiney Road in Singapore. The film premiered at the 2007 Singapore International Film Festival. The Mitre Spell was short-listed for The Best of First Take 2008, a special screening of audience favourites of each month, organised by The Substation.

In 2006, Woo set up film-production company Mythopolis Pictures with Singapore-based American film director Tony Kern.

In 2004, she crossed over to parent company MediaCorp and served as its vice-president of corporate communications before joining Channel NewsAsia in 2007.

After graduating from university, Woo started out as a copywriter in advertising before turning to print journalism. In 1999, she joined Parkway Holdings where she managed corporate communications. She returned to journalism in 2003, serving for a year as an assistant editor at TODAY, a free English-language tabloid in Singapore.
