Distributing Climate Change Flyers [Thailand] After receiving the SOS climate change message from our beloved Master, initiates in Thailand quickly began to spread the urgent news around the country. They first contacted a large national daily newspaper, where they posted the SOS message in the February 15 and 16, Golden Year 5 (2008) issues. The initiates also distributed about 300,000 Thai and 30,000 English flyers on the streets of Bangkok as well as in offices, schools, shops, temples and parking lots. Moreover, 4,917 sets of posters, flyers, VCDs and CDs were mailed to many leaders of organizations throughout Thailand, including governors, heads of TV and radio stations, editors of newspapers and magazines and directors of schools, banks and hospitals. Spreading Vegetarianism Also, on the early morning of March 23, after an overnight group meditation session, the fellow initiates distributed loving vegan food together with climate change flyers at Lumpini Park in the center of Bangkok’s business district, where many people come to do their morning and evening exercises. To let the public know about how delicious and easy to make vegetarian food can be, the sisters and brothers distributed 350 sample vegan food packages, and the recipients’ responses were very positive, with many coming to ask about our Association and for more information on global warming and its solutions. Then on the evening of March 24, the initiates went to Saraburi Province and distributed 500 food packages to local factory workers. During the distribution, many passers-by also requested flyers. An old lady who was illiterate asked for a flyer because she wanted to see our beautiful Master’s picture on the front. When the distribution was completed, it started raining, and everyone felt Master’s great blessing. The Thailand initiates are now looking forward to the next distribution and are grateful to God for this wonderful opportunity to spread Master’s love and information about saving our Mother Earth.
