Pacific Press Agency photos

Pacific Press Agency is a news photo agency distributed through Newscom, supplying daily editorial coverage from photographers working on the ground across Asia, with particular strength in Southeast Asia and South Asia. The collection documents the everyday consequences of economic and political change: fuel and energy costs, consumer and household concerns, street demonstrations and organised protest, labour and rural campaigns, and human rights activism. Alongside this, it records religious and community observances, national and ceremonial occasions, and scenes of ordinary urban and neighbourhood life. Images are typically made as events unfold, with captions identifying country and context, making them suitable for news reporting, features and analysis pieces on economic pressures, civil society, faith communities and regional affairs. Picture editors, publishers, broadcasters and educational and corporate publishers can use the material to illustrate current stories or as a retrospective record of recent years. The images are available to license on Fast Media.
