Tell your problem and opinion.

The idea that the government invite people to tell their problem by telephone direct to the prime minister and another department director is not a new idea, but Thai government make a new trend with bring the movie star to listen and record the million problems.
Thai prime minister Aphisit Wetchachiwa led most of his team to sit and record the problem from the people. He aspect to get 63 million opinions in 6 days with start from the first of July. Aphisit chose TOT to install of 300 telephone lines in the government's house for this program. On the first day, the economic is the most popular problem. The only one number is 02 304 9999. Everyone from everywhere can dial this number to complain, suggest or to tell your every opinion.
I think, this is the good solution, but it will be happen in short term and this program can't solve the problem like every project in the past. The government just show off to get more vote after the situation in May. I can imagine after this campaign will be nothing happen to solve of all people problem.

  2. Tarn is right that I suggested using the sources listed in "Looking for Something to Read?" but as I repeated in my recent comments on Tum's post "Could we use another website for writing?", they are suggestsions; it can be OK to use others.

    I'll write more on this tomorrow morning.

  3. Although most of our governments do not sincerely listen to the public or seek for the real solution to our society's long-standing problems, I do have some hope that it might be different this time.
