What's New

Local Chiang Mai News

The websites below provide English language insight into local Chiang Mai news and events.

  • City Life.  This online and hard copy magazine is a very good source of information about events and happenings in Chiang Mai.
  • Chiang Mai Mail.  This online newspaper provides insight on local events. It's a good source for understanding day-to-day issues impacting local Thais.
  • Our Chiang Mai. This website appears to be more blog than news outlet. The website is maintained by volunteers with a common goal of protecting and preserving Chiang Mai for future generations.

International News

We have had no trouble accessing online versions of major US newspapers such as the New York Times, Washington Post, Fox News and our hometown Atlanta Journal Constitution.

Accessing live stream news services has been more problematic.  For example, we typically stream MSNBC from http://www.msnbc.com/now. We have found that here in Chiang Mai we get "the selected item not currently available."

Selecting video on YouTube results in "The uploader has not made this video available in your country."

We did find this website http://www.livenewson.com that provides live streaming of news shows from the America, United Kingdom, India, etc.

Enjoy.
