A report via the Asian Correspondent Dot Com website, citing blogger Nick Berser, ranked interest in social media Facebook among 30 nations.
Statistics showed rising Facebook registration in all Southeast Asian nations.
Thailand is ranked 21st in terms of Facebook membership.
However, Facebook membership for Thai nationals grew 240 percent in 2010 and almost 4,000 percent for the past two years.
As a result, Thailand is ranked the second country in the world, after Brazil, with the highest Facebook user growth.
Other Asian countries also see rising interest in Facebook.
The number of Facebook members has increased over 100 percent in Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia, and India.
This has pushed Asia to become an important region for the expansion of various social media.
Internet usage is expected to grow further in Thailand and Southeast Asia with the introduction of smart phones and Wi-Fi internet which will help increase the number of Facebook users in Thailand, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Indonesia.
