The
Nation |
Independent and courageous news
paper. Has received a few international awards for his courageous reporting of political
events. A good example of how free the press is now in Thailand (at least
before Khun Taksin became prime minister). |
By far the best source of reliable informations in English about Thailand. Few up-dates all day long except on Saturdays and Sundays (Look for the "Breaking news" section) |

Bangkok Post |
The second national newspaper in English written to please the expat's community and to give them something to talk about... | The best cartoons, a good hard and software section on Wednesday. OK for sports news and the selection of foreigner news agencies. But informations about Thai politics and business not really reliable, sometime even dangerously misleading, but we have to admit some progress. | |

| Joris Home page |
In fact it was "Joris Goetschalckx" home page but as nobody is able to pronounce his name correctly except Dutch people, it has been shorten in Joris Home Page. This site was from a polyglot |
SCT = soc.culture.thai, the news group where to meet every body interested in the country, the culture, the food (?), etc... Popular with resident and regular visitors as well as with Thai living overseas and who like to keep in touch with their country. Unfortunatelly, as Joris never got time enought to maintain the website he preferred to cacncel the whole thing.
