Factiva, a Dow Jones & Reuters Company, has unveiled a new range of Asia Pacific sources available via its flagship product Factiva.com. A total of 18 Chinese language publications have been added to Factiva's existing industry leading content set, with new additions from Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia and Korea.
"As local enterprises strive to compete in the global market, access to quality and timely information is becoming a key differentiation factor," said Simone Wheeler, marketing director for Factiva in Asia Pacific. "We have focused on aggressively expanding access to key Chinese language business-oriented newspapers, newswires, vertical industry sources and business periodicals across Asia, so that our customers have the information they need, whatever their native language and location, to make the best business decisions."
In addition to the new Chinese content, Factiva offers a Chinese search capability, bringing users a step closer to the full Chinese interface version of Factiva.com, which is due to be launched in the region in early 2003. The newly expanded Chinese language content set includes Hong Kong Economic Journal Monthly, Ming Pao Daily, Ming Pao Instant News, China Infobank news channel and the Dow Jones Chinese Financial Wire. From Singapore, titles include Lianhe Zaobao, the Chinese language editions of the Korean Chosun Ilbo and Joins.com, and Malaysia's Nanyang Siang Pau, China Press and Sin Chew Jit Poh.
