11. Verification of Receivership & Readership Carrier Delivery and Mail Distribution Voice Of Asia reported an average mail distribution of 925 during the audit period. Mail distribution was verified through the review of USPS mail statements and/or additional publisher support documents. Voice Of Asia did not report average carrier delivery distribution during the audit period. Carrier delivery is verified through the review of carrier statements and additional publisher support documents.

12. Verification of Distribution Controlled Bulk / Demand Distribution The Circulation Verification Council interviewed and/or visited controlled bulk/demand distribution locations chosen randomly from the publication’s delivery list. The purpose was to identify the number of locations who indicate they receive the publication on a regular basis, and further verify the number of publications distributed at the beginning of the edition cycle, and the number of editions left unclaimed by readers at the end of the edition cycle.

CVC interviews indicate that a sufficient number of reported controlled bulk drop locations indicated they received Voice Of Asia on a regular basis to substantiate the publisher’s distribution claims.

CVC interviews indicate that less than 15% of Voice Of Asia’s controlled bulk distributed editions are returned to the publisher unclaimed after the edition cycle.
