JoyoNews

JoyoNews Joyo Indonesia News Service is a nonprofit, subscriber-supported service entering it's 15th year of operation. The Joyo email news letter was distributed daily.

In the summer of 1996, Gordon Bishop obtained a computer and began compiling news on Indonesia and distributed it to close friends, including Indonesians. At that time, the Indonesian press was still restricted, and the news distributed by Bishop helped bring outside perspective to Indonesian readers. As a consequence, the email distribution grew organically and became Joyo Indonesia News. Gordon

adopted an alias of Joyo, derived from Joyoboyo, a Javanese poet. The newswire was part of Internet activism in Indonesia that contributed to civil activism and a student movement that ultimately toppled down Suharto in 1998. By 2001, Joyo Indonesia News distributed free of charge more than 80,000 news articles to subscribers. JoyoNews is now run by Bishop's colleagues. Stay tuned for our very exciting developments! Best wishes / Salam hangat,
Joyo Indonesia News Service
