Letting a thousand flowers bloom in Thailand.

Looks like Thai kids will learn to "C" faster than others worldwide. Based on this article at ABC News, Thailand hopes to distribute one laptop per child

This program was made possible by Nicholas Negroponte. Here's a link to the program: One Laptop per Child. If possible try and support it.

Will this drive tech entrepreneurship in Thailand?

I certainly hope so. Not only will kids learn computing, they'll teach their parents too, who'll realise that this is an incredibly efficient way to work and do business, and take advantage of it.

Now let's wait for news that someone rolls out a nationwide WiMAX network across Thailand and we'll really get going there..
