THE HIDDEN DETAILS

Following on from my post earlier today about The Nation's new venture I was looking at their publicly available data posted on the Stock Exchange of Thailand's website.
Hidden pretty well in one of the reports is a mention of an 11 per cent drop in newspaper circulation during 2007. That probably explains why they're looking at new ventures, and because they don't audit any of their newspapers or magazine in Thailand (only The Bangkok Post does that) you have to rely on other means to find out the truth.
I wonder if that decline has been reflected in their media kit?

Andrew, has anyone ever told you that you look a bit like Drew Carey? I can't watch Whose Line Is It Anyway? without thinking of you.

Drew Carey? Hmmm, no. When I was younger a few people said I looked like Danny Baker (remember him?) or going even further back the character Roland from Grange Hill.
Sounds like a topic for a future blog perhaps?
