Indonesia: AFP lends helping hand to Tsunami battered paper

Voila.fr recounts the story of the sole daily paper in Aceh, the Indonesian province destroyed by December's tsunami, and Agence France Presse. The seventeen year-old daily, Serambi, lost over one hundred employees to the disaster, as well as its printing presses and offices. As soon as the island country's reconstruction began, surviving members of the paper quickly began printing again, keeping their public informed. AFP has been allowing Serambi to use its breaking news, infographics and photos free of charge. Serambi's editor, Sjamsul Kahar, commented, "This service is very useful for us for the text and photos that give us a window to what's happening in the world."
