NEWS WEBSITE MAKES WAVES IN HUA HIN

HuaHinNews.Net was established in June 2007 to fill a gap in everyday information from the coastal town, according to Leszek Myszkowski. He told The Bangkok Bugle: "The website has grown rapidly in and it's now a firm favourite with Hua Hin's expatriate residents and Thai population alike."
The website has benefited from the services of 80-year-old Khun Tuck Dechapanya, a very well known journalist with extensive experience and excellent contacts. This has enabled the website to cover the recent visit of the East Timor President and His Majesty the King's trip to the long boat races at Kao Tao. Leszek added: "We always able to supplement our unique news with many pictures".
The website is run on a not-for-profit basis and is operated by a small team of dedicated volunteers, and is a good example of a Thailand-based news publisher that doesn't need print to flourish.
