COICA

[Poomjit Sirawongprasert]

Dear all,

I'm following all your comments closely. If the Bill is approved, there
might cause a lot of problem to my country - Thailand, in two aspects.
Firstly, Thai internet users own gTLD domains more than ccLTD - .th.
Secondly, Thailand is one of the country that is in the U.S. infringement
blacklist.

Keep on reading all your sharing, thanks ahead.
