eumenades Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 1 minute ago, thesetat said: i do not predict this sale will be a good thing for Asean now or for its members.. As Asean now always took their posts from other news services, now with Thaiger as the owner I think the only news we will actually see will be the same we can see in the Thaiger online. So why have this app? The only good that came out of this sale is for the owners of Asean now. Perhaps now is a good time to start up website free from Thaigers influence. Utilizing many sources to get us our information. Who can say that Thaiger is unbiased in their approach to giving news to its followers? I can not count the number or ads i have seen in Thaiger shown as a news report when it should have been in their advertising section to promote Thailand. Tis a sad day for Asean Now. Great stuff, Thesetat. I am delighted that so many of our contributors are 'media savvy' and can discern the forces running behind editorial shenanigans. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the moderators will remain an important part of the forum, yet the question on will there be change is a fair and valid question. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post retarius Posted April 19 Popular Post Share Posted April 19 I'm so glad they picked a really quality newspaper as a partner. As a user of Asean Now I'm happy, but as a businessman, I know that the combination of two weak businesses never results in a strong new business. Rather the reverse, the weaknesses of both parties become more glaringly apparent. 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Robert Tyrrell Posted April 19 Popular Post Share Posted April 19 Good Morning !!! Great News!! 🙂 Hopefully we can finally get some non bias news reporting with facts and not gas lighting either side 🙂 You know common sense factual news reporting good or bad and having the staff to write it and report it properly for all!! 🙂 Which I find more so with Thaiger News 🙂 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post impulse Posted April 19 Popular Post Share Posted April 19 (edited) My suggestions to the new mgt: 1) Bring back non-anonymous emojis so we know who put up all those scrunchy faces. 2) In the poster reputation rankings, use AI to rate the positivity of the poster's contribution. And how many of each type emoji they used. Expose the downers, the trolls and the meanies. And the positive contributors. 3) Fix the ridiculous amount of full page ads on mobile platform.

Well, in addition use clear names? With address and phone number? And a recent taken photo? Splendid idea, isn't it? Not haters anymore, no gutter language, no proof of stupidity.
