International Herald Tribune in Hong Kong

The International Herald Tribune's Asia-Pacific operation is run by IHT old-timer (not that he's old, just that he has worked for the IHT for a long time) Randy Weddle who is the Managing Director.

The IHT's offices there are the habitual default location for IHT worldwide offices - a cheap tower block in a not so hot location, but the atmosphere is certainly improved by Weddle's extremely affable demeanour.

If you know Hong Kong you'll understand what I mean by checking out the map below.

The reference was kindly provided by "Amadeo" who is today:

"extremely/incredibly/moreandmoreadverbs happy to say" that he has "landed a Web producer job with the International Herald Tribune. I can’t wait to get to work…in Hong Kong!"

Good luck Amadeo and do send us your news and views: we'd love to hear how it's going there.
