Dear friends of Thailand,

As you might have heard about political conflict in Thailand, or you still be in Thailand today. Tomorrow (March 12th), a massive political protest is scheduled to begin. It will either be major violence or a new chapter of peaceful co-existence of Thai people with different political beliefs. We are hoping for the 2nd option where Thai people will learn to truly live in an open society where everyone respect each other differences, even major opposite beliefs. This will ensure Thailand's sustainable growth as a liberal democracy and free economy.

Right now in Thailand, people spontaneously run various social media campaign to try to show that they're really against violence and want creative solution to this seemingly political dead-lock. There are already few thousands joining our campaign.

We believe you can help make this happen through your participation in online social networking. It happens that two opposing leaders of Thailand are using twitter and we all can invite them to talk together via twitter or tell their people to hold on to peaceful democratic process before the actual confrontation tomorrow and beyond.

If you care about Thailand , you can simply twit to both leaders' twitter at @thaksinlive and @PM_abhisit to tell them your hope that they wil ensure peaceful process and never to resort to violence. you can tell them how your perception of thailand is changing because of this. After your message please end with #thaipeace so that it will be part of this campaign.

For example, @PM_abhisit @thaksinlive both please begin talking via Twitter. I am sure you both are innovative in bringing peace #Thaipeace #welovethai

Please also join http://www.facebook.com/thaipeace which is a page dedicated for Thais who really believe in seeing a peaceful solution coming out of this conflict. You can post your constructive thought as well, although most posts are in Thai but at least you can see this Internet-enabled democratic movement emerging in Thailand.

Let's spread this love and save Thailand!
