We’re recruiting an Archivist / DAM specialist - could it be you?

EIA introduced a digital asset management system AssetBank to manage the large volume of images and footage collected over the years. The collection comprises approximately 30,000 images and 5,000 hours of film. A significant amount of this is in analogue and in old formats and therefore currently difficult to search for images and clips that can be used in our campaigning and for historical research purposes.

The Archivist will be responsible for managing the digital asset management system and cataloguing/digitising significant parts of this historical collection. We estimate this would comprise 5,000 still images and 500 hours film.

Thailand: Smuggler stopped at Malaysia border with two baby orangutans, 51 tortoises & raccoons

Two baby orangutans were discovered at a border control in Thailand after they were packed into suitcases by smugglers.

Shocked customs guards stopped a 63-year-old Malaysian man at a checkpoint and discovered his car was packed full of wildlife.

The driver, named as Ismail bin Ahmad, had been attempting to smuggle the two baby orangutans in two large suitcases across Thailand’s southern border from Malaysia.

But officers searching his vehicle also discovered 51 endangered tortoises and six raccoons.
