Thai prime minister Abhisit Vejjajiva has launched a hotline for people to ring in with their suggestions for national reconciliation after the kingdom's political crisis.

Under the 'Six days, 63 million ideas' campaign, 300 phone lines will be up for 12 hours a day for six days.

Some of the calls will be answered by Mr Vejjajiva himself, as well as government ministers and Thai movie stars.

But Mr Abhisit says there will be numerous calls unrelated to the political process, after he answered the first three callers and was asked by one for a better government pension.

"I expect most of the incoming calls will be about personal debts," he said.

Mr Abhisit says the project will enable the government to listen directly to people's needs and their suggestions will be used as part of his five-point road map to reconciliation, after anti-government protests rocked the capital.

Two months of mass Red Shirt rallies in Bangkok sparked outbreaks of violence that left 90 people dead, mostly civilians, and nearly 1,900 injured, ending with a deadly army crackdown on May 19.
