New buzz at Nepali Times

Nepali Times is coming out in an expanded 20-page edition from Friday March 1, 2013

Every Friday, Nepali Times will continue to carry expert analysis, in-depth reporting and human interest stories on rural development, travel and culture that readers have come to expect from the paper. In addition, however, Nepali Times will now also carry a 8-page special middle section called 'Buzz' that will feature happenings around town, lighter articles, profiles, interviews, restaurant and gadget reviews, movie updates and a health section.

We are sure that the Buzz section will create a new buzz. It will complement the world class content and production values of Nepali Times with a superbly produced and designed weekly supplement that will draw a sophisticated, inspirational and younger English-speaking readership.

All the content of Nepali Times will also appear on the paper's popular and high-profile online edition. With a 'digital first' policy, nepalitimes.com has become a trusted must-read for an up-market English readership in Nepal, the Nepali diaspora and also for a worldwide reader base of people interested in Nepal.

Also from March 1 2013, Nepali Times is partnering with China Daily Asia Weekly from Hong Kong. All existing and future subscribers of Nepali Times will get a free copy of China Daily's 24-page weekly syndicated tabloid newspaper with a unique focus on global politics, business, trade and culture from an Asian perspective.
