BAKU (Azerbaijan), Sept 4 (Bernama) — Istanbul will host the next General Assembly of the Organisation of Asia Pacific News Agencies (OANA) in 2010, said OANA president Dr Ahmad Muchlis Yusuf.
Speaking at the conclusion of the 30th OANA Executive Board meeting here Wednesday, he said the Turkish news agency, Anadolu, had offered to host the meeting since Istanbul had been designated as the European culture capital for that year.
Dr Ahmad Muchlis said the venue for the next OANA Executive Board meeting had yet to be finalised although Iran’s Mehr News Agency had tentatively offered to host it next year.
