Thaivisa.com signs republishing agreement with Associated Press (AP)

HONG KONG: -- Thaivisa.com has signed a republishing agreement with Associated Press (AP). The agreement allows Thaivisa.com to republish World News, SE-Asia news, technology news and Thailand related news on Thaivisa Forum and Thailand Tech.

The Associated Press (AP) is a multinational nonprofit news agency headquartered in New York City. The AP is owned by its contributing newspapers, radio, and television stations, all of which contribute stories to the AP and use material written by its staff journalists. As of 2014, the news collected by the AP was published and republished by more than 1,900 newspapers, in addition to more than 5,000 television and radio broadcasters. The photograph library of the AP consists of over 20 million images. The Associated Press operates 243 news bureaus and it serves at least 120 countries, with an international staff located worldwide. Associated Press also operates the Associated Press Radio Network, which provides newscasts twice hourly for broadcast and satellite radio and television stations.

The AP Radio also offers news and public affairs features, feeds of news sound bites, and long form coverage of major events. Many newspapers and broadcasters outside the United States are AP subscribers, paying a fee to use AP material without being contributing members of the cooperative.

"This allows thaivisa.com to continue to provide its members with the best possible news coverage from Thailand and around the world", says Barry Main, Marketing Director of thaivisa.com. "Look out for the new AP content linked from our newsletters and news forums", says Barry Main.

Well done George and the team.

Congratulations.

Thaivisa offers a wonderful service to its members and non members alike.

This republishing agreement will only strengthen Thaivisa'a ability to bring us news.

Nice to hopefully be getting some articles that are well researched, double checked and clearly written.

Great work thaivisa.com

I really enjoy the website and find the forums very useful

Please keep it up

Well done. The current situation makes the job more difficult, and screening news is no small chore.

Still, well done.

Does this mean we can cite AP when we take quotes from its reports?

Thank you. Congrats on the AP news.

Good job.
