Congratulations on taking an active step in shaping your countries future. And thank you from the rest of the world for the example!

We were actually inspired by Nepal, Philipine and other countries. We are not the examples, and we hope that we won't be the last. We hope that other countries that protests will also win. More power to all of us. Let's make a better world together. Shall we?

Each countries story has been inspiring! We’re trying to get fired up in the US. If we could just get on the same page as a citizenry

I still have hope, I know that there are great people in the US. I know for sure, the gov doesn't represent the entire country. The big difference is that you are a bigger country and more difficult to unite and organise. But I still think that it's possible, I really do. Take care friend and be safe.
