Thais do not want violence

A recent survey shows Thai’s are getting tired of the political violence that has plagued the country in recent months. In the survey, 94 percent supported the campaign to end the political violence, and to restore national unity.

The public-opinion poll was conducted by Assumption University over 19 provinces in all regions of the country. The university surveyed 2,698 eligible voters. The survey was reported to include all age groups with various levels of educations. The findings showed it did not matter how old or young, or how educated, Thai’s want to stop the violence.

Noppadon Kannikar was in charge of the survey conducted throughout Thailand. He believes Thailand can come together and unite despite the differences in political opinion. Mahidol Universtiy held a special lecture that addressed worldly problems, and how to address these issues in an intellectual manner. Noppadon Kannikar was a speaker addressing the political problems in Thailand.

"It is reassuring to learn that most Thais want to stop violence and have amicable talks. If Thais can weather this crisis, we shall be able to live peacefully despite our polar differences in political ideology," he said.
