[@OKFNau] Open Knowledge Foundation as an Ambassador in SA

Mon Oct 21 00:28:03 UTC 2013

Hi Mate,

I'm completing my PhD at UniSA Business School at the moment.
Other than my research role, I manage a Chinese magazine network in
Australia.

Perhaps let me briefly introduce Sameway. Sameway is the ONLY free magazine
nationally distributed among the Chinese Community across Australia. *With
22,000 copies of Sameway distributed every week in Sydney, Melbourne,
Brisbane and Adelaide*, the content of Sameway includes people feature,
news feature, finance, education, health, family, real estate, spiritual
and literature. Our information section, the Infoway, consists of articles
and reports in games, technology, entertainment, sports, community
information, and cars (Driveway).

Our existing and growing audiences include Chinese from Mainland China,
Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and a handful of other countries such as
Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore.

Further information about Sameway, please visit
http://www.sameway.com.au/en/
I would like to join Open Knowledge Foundation as an Ambassador in SA.
Please kindly point me to the right contact person.

Kind regards,
