A blog about Thailand, journalism, travel, technology and more

I have devoted numerous posts to Thailand’s ongoing political instability of late, often linking to various media reports. But I realized that I have neglected, in recent months, to point to some of my own stories. So here’s a re-cap:

In addition to filing pieces about breaking news in Thailand for ABC News Radio in New York,¹ I am now covering business and economics issues in the region for BNA, in Washington, DC.

I cannot link to my BNA stories here since they’re subscriber-only, but some recent topics I have covered include:

• Thailand’s Map Ta Phut industrial estate issue²
• Labor issues and economic governance in Vietnam
• Asia’s economic recovery
• How exporting firms in Thailand are using the country’s various free trade agreements

I also recent wrote a recent story for AFP about Thai rice farmers and free trade. You can see the piece on the Jakarta Globe site here. It ran on March 7.

And, finally, I have written a number of fun travel/lifestyle stories for CNNGo.com of late. Here are a few:

• Attention dogs: How to live the good life in Bangkok
• 3 work-friendly Bangkok office escapes
• Q&A with Bangkok 8 author John Burdett
• The Siam Sunray: Chasing down Thailand’s ’signature’ cocktail³

1. I’ll try to give you a heads up next time a story is due to run. I’ll most likely mention it quickly on Twitter. [↩]
2. Hence my interest and subsequent posts on the topic here at Newley.com [↩]
3. You’ll recall that I blogged about the Siam Sunray here a while back. [↩]
