Thumbs up Local or World News?

Hello

What is best? News and Sports from your own country or News and Sports from UK and USA newspapers? Which would you prefer to read?

jamaby.com finds stories for students of English everyday. But soon News from your country might be there, if people want it.

There is also a mailing list Jamaby Weekly.

Thanks
Jason

Your Country

I should add, all the news will be in English.

It will be useful to intermediate, upper intermediate and advanced students.

Thanks again
Jason

Smile Local Versus World

Thanks for your opinion.

One more question,

If I was not able to provide Vietnamese News would you be interested in South East Asian News, which would include some Vietnamese stories?

Regards

Jason

PS I don`t like American Football either I am English.

South East Asian News would be fine. Let me know once done. I would be interested in taking a look then.
