Ladies and Gentlemen:
Thank you Harvard University and all the organizers from
the Thai Studies Program at the Harvard University Asia Center for
allowing me to represent the suppressed voices of
millions of pro-democracy dissidents both in Thailand and around the world. The
Organization of FreeThais for Human Rights and Democracy (OFHD) was established on June 24, 2014 to
be a center for efforts to inform the world of
the facts and truths about the undemocratic and rights abusive acts committed
by the military regime that has long served the minority elites. OFHD’s goal is
also to seek peaceful solutions among Thais of different political views based
on the internationally accepted democracy principles, respect for human rights, and non-violence means.
OFHD never intends to be the
enemy of our brothers and sisters anywhere. We
never aims at using forces to
topple the dictatorial regime and the elite networks, but we believe that most Thais must
be adequately knowledgeable about
the structural problems that all Thais are facing, the multiple causes, and the shared responsibilities among
them all to find solutions and
to collectively create a
better regime that benefits the Thai citizens of all walks
of life more equally. Dialogues
in which all voices are shared, as
Harvard has graciously initiated for us today, are crucial for the success that Thailand needs.
Lastly, may I emphasize the
importance of help from our international friends? What
Harvard is doing today is a great example for
our friends in the academia. I am hoping that more universities and organizations will
care to listen to more of what we, as representatives of
unfortunate Thais, will have to say in the near future. We need your help.
Thank you,
