About Us

Our Mission

Phuket Times is an independent digital newspaper covering Phuket, Thailand and the stories that matter to residents, businesses and visitors. Our mission is to publish timely news, useful local information and clear context that helps readers understand what is happening and why it matters.

What We Cover

Our coverage includes local news, business, travel, immigration, property, technology, nature, sport, lifestyle and important developments from Thailand and around the world. We aim to balance breaking updates with practical guides and longer-form reporting.

Editorial Standards

We work to distinguish verified facts from opinion, identify sources clearly, correct material errors promptly and avoid misleading headlines. Imported archive material is reviewed and organised by our editorial team before publication.

Independence and Transparency

Editorial decisions are made in the public interest and are not controlled by advertisers. Advertising, sponsored content and commercial partnerships should be clearly identified so readers can distinguish them from independent editorial coverage.

Corrections Policy

When a material factual error is confirmed, we aim to correct it promptly and transparently. Significant updates may be noted within the article. Requests should identify the article, disputed statement and reliable evidence supporting the correction.

Contact the Newsroom

Readers may send corrections, news tips, partnership enquiries or feedback through our Contact Us page. We welcome specific information and supporting evidence that can help us improve a report.
