I think this is a great idea. In a similar light - I'd like to offer my company's services as a media contact point for PostgreSQL in Thailand and SE Asia (as appropriate). We're just now opening our new offices in Bangkok (last year we got Reuters Software Thailand to deploy their first SOA system on top of a PostgreSQL Slony cluster rather than SQLServer) and have been pretty serious Postgres users since 1998. We can be a media contact and translate any press releases into Thai, Malay, Indonesian and/or Chinese (Singaporean). We expect to be evangelizing PostgreSQL pretty heavily around here soon and are sponsors of the first BarcampBangkok coming later this month. Please let me know what we need to do.
best regards,

Working with the PostgreSQL community is a joy. I love getting
together with the PDXPUG members every month, and advocating here in
Portland on behalf of PostgreSQL. I am so excited for all the new
groups, and can't wait to see what they have in store this coming
year.
Thank you!
