IN the latest episode of 10 Minutes With Journlaw, I interview Reporters Without Borders correspondent for Timor Leste about media freedom issues there and elsewhere in the region.

Howarth is a veteran newspaper reporter, editor and manager who has worked throughout the Australia-Asia-Pacific region for more than four decades.
He is Reporters Without Borders (RSF) correspondent for Papua New Guinea, Timor Leste and the Solomon Islands.
In this interview we talk about media freedom issues in the region.
