We are today introducing World News on Thaivisa.

Selected Hot stories and Breaking News from around the world to keep you informed about the world outside Thailand.

This news feed subforum is updated automatically in real-time, and is currently in BETA.

We are working with several news sources, initially we will publish news content produced by BNO News (bnonews.com).

More sources will be added later on.

Your feedback is welcome!

It sounds like an excellent new feature for your forum George. Good Luck with it.

Noticed multiple posts on the same story, Is there a way to avoid this?

Does world news mean the USA.

See this as a Live Newsfeed, sometimes a story changes and is updated with new facts, and it will be some duplicates.

We'll shortly trim the feed so it will show less of US National/US State news items.

This project is a work in progress (BETA) so your input is valuable.

Thanks for the feedback so far!

Excellent less need for me scouring the web

More traffic to the site, why not, if people find it of interest, it couldn't hurt ...

It does kind of dilute the Thailand only "rules" though, eh?

Excellent less need for me scouring the web

My opinion as well.

World News On Thaivisa

At last, but better late than never.

Thanks for creating a subforum, the general forum was getting a bit crowded.

BNO News is committed to providing news content at the lowest price available. Our policy is: if you find a lower rate, we'll match it.

BNO News provides content to mainly local media in the United States.

BNO News’ mission is to provide fast, unbiased quality content to newspapers, television stations, radio stations, and any other media in the United States.

peanuts & monkeys come to my mind.

And looks like its all that what is considered as 'world news' by Americans for an American audience. Probably actually just content spam to please some search engine robot spider.

But hey its still a good idea but definitely needs some human being who does the selection of the news and not just a software programm doing it and it needs a mixture of news from different content providers all over the world.

Funny would be to get a daily review what kind of international news made it into the Thai language news media. So us foreigners can get an idea how the world is seen according to Thai news.

It's a great idea and a great addition to the forum, it may need a little tweaking in the future, but as you said it is in beta. I for one am grateful you added it.

Thanks for the feedback so far!

We are still tweaking, and the local US news is now set to lower priority, as our goal is "World News"
