I read the paper. It had one page for important Thai news, a few paragraphs of regular Thai news scattered about, 2+ pages on sports, zero world news, and about 10 pages of girly gossip. Who is your target audience?

Compare the online Bangkokpost to the UK Dailymail news. The UK news wins hands down. Instead of new useless products, why doesn't Thai news invest more in their flagship news? Example is floods ravage all of Thailand and you are lucky if the Bangkok post has more than 20 photos of this. Other news papers would have had 1,000's covering the faces, places, suffering, tragedies, etc in pictures. Thai news multimedia video is 10 years behind the rest of the world. Investigative reporting into wrongdoing is non-existent. If you read the Thai news online you have no clue of what roads are actually flooded or not?
