In addition, the famous news agency in Qatar, Al Jazeera, now has an English Language Edition.

Every day, I search the world for the latest news. I have found that there is no convenient site to find it. Therefore, I have created this page so that I can access the news in Asia quickly.

I started with Japan and then included links to papers in Bangkok, for the convenience of my former girlfriend, whom I know to be checking my website regularly to find out what I have been saying about her. After that, I started adding other newspapers in Asia, such as the Phnom Penh Post and the Borneo Bulletin.

She's Pining Away for Sam

My list now has newspapers in Japan, Thailand, Singapore, Sri Lanka, South Korea, North Korea, Taiwan, Macau, Indonesia, Burma, Papua New Guinea, Pakistan, Bhutan, Brunei, Laos, China, Nepal, Philippines, The Maldives, Malaysia, Micronesia, Syria, United Arab Emirates, Oman, Qatar, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Palestine, Bahrain, Yemen, Kuwait, Iran, Israel, Bangladesh, Hong Kong, India, Turkey, Vietnam, Cambodia, Mongolia, Russia (Vladivostok), Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, New Zealand and Australia.

So far, I have not been able to find any newspapers on-line in Afghanistan, Tajikistan or Turkmenistan. I have just added a paper from Kyrgyzstan. I have also added MiddleXpress, a newswire which carries daily news from nine Arab countries, including Iraq.

Additions and corrections are welcome. Many of these newspapers are not listed with any of the search engines, or at least were not until I found them.
