Jonathan Fairfield Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 NEW Thaivisa Video News Show – Every Weekday BANGKOK:-- Thaivisa.com is delighted to announce the launch of a new daily video news show, with the first bulletin due to air on October 1st, 2015. The weekday show will be filmed from our new state of the art studios in Bangkok and will consist of the most important and interesting news from throughout Thailand. Through Thaivisa's new agreement with Euronews, we will also be able to bring you the latest world news stories in our exclusive daily news bulletin. All the latest news from Thailand and around the world crammed into a punchy 6 minutes to ensure our valued consumers receive an enhanced news service from the most viewed English language media platform in Thailand – Thaivisa. The show is an integral part of Choice Group Asia’s plans to develop and enhance the Thaivisa proposition in order to deliver a first class, modern experience for all Thaivisa’s loyal consumers. “Thaivisa is all about delivering timely, relevant information for expats living in Thailand and indeed those who live outside of Thailand but who have a strong interest in the area. With the digital era moving quickly into video, we felt this was an essential new product enhancement to ensure a better consumer experience” stated Dan Cheeseman, Managing Director Choice Group Asia. Look out for the new Thaivisa Video News Show in the news forum, in the Thaivisa Newsletter and on YouTube. -- 2015-09-28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yme Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Can I suggest one of the early reports should be on the atrociously appalling short dresses and tight shirts that some Thai university female students are prone to wearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yooyung Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Lets hope it offers something more than what usually comes out of this region in regard to 'news'. God help us if its another insipid Channel news Asia type program....magazine style, with 'safe' stories that pander to a mentally vacuous population that is completely unaware of the size of the filter that is being used by those in power to paint a rosy view of their world.......nothing to see here, move along. And of course, the inevitable feelgood story at the end of each bulletin......the panda that has just given birth to cute little cubs at some zoo in China God help all those with critical thinking skills....

craigt3365 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 I quite like the FM 103 news broadcast. Very informative and very well produced. Hopefully, this will be along the same lines. It'd be nice to have an English language news show here. Best of luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
