SYDNEY, April 2 Asia Pulse - Highlights of today's newspapers:

THE AGE

- A devastated Ian Thorpe, desperate to salvage his reputation, will trawl through his medical records in a bid to find an explanation for his irregular drug test. An outcry has erupted in the US over the secret deal struck by a Bush administration appointee to slash David Hicks' jail term to just nine more months.

- The French journalist who broke the story about Ian Thorpe's adverse drug test was "completely shocked" to learn that the Olympic champion was unaware of the findings until his newspaper made them public.

- The Victorian government is preparing to consider widening the availability of surrogacy to Victorian couples. Australia's efforts at addressing indigenous health are the worst of comparable developed countries, a report released by Oxfam Australia says.

- US President George W Bush has condemned Iran's seizure of 15 British sailors and marines as inexcusable and demanded that the "hostages" be released.

- Airline Partners Australia is preparing to move to plan B in its bid to gain control of Qantas by laying the groundwork for a new debt package that would allow the consortium to change the terms of its $11.1 billion takeover bid.
