I congratulate ThibusMe for developing an innovative method to send and receive Sinhala/Tamil SMS using mobile phones.
As we seek now there is no firmware that supports Sinhala language in Mobile phones. The fact that the mobile user community in Sri Lanka still uses entry level GSM phones, makes it even difficult to develop a solution. How ever ThibusMe has over come these two issues by using “EMS & Nokia Smart Messaging” supported picture formats to send and receive Sinhala/Tamil SMS messages.
I was delighted to witness the pilot trial of ThibusMe Trilingual Mobile Suite. The user friendliness and the ability to send messages to any phone that support picture messaging any network on top of the existing frame work will make this solution a useful proposition to break the language barrier in Sri Lanka.
I am quite confident that his product once commercial launched will make a significant difference in the Sinhala/Tamil SMS traffic in Sri Lanka.

ThibusME Multilingual Mobile Software Suite has realized a long waiting dream of bridging Sinhala and Tamil languages with ICT. This innovative product has opened a new era in communication between Sinhala & Tamil communities.
It’s unique feature of Sinhala to Tamil and Tamil to Sinhala language translation facility for mobile phones will play a major role in ethnic harmony of Sri Lanka when this products released to the public. I believe it will set a new trend in use of mobile phones in Sri Lanka which can easily be extended to the other Asian countries in the region as well.
