Diversity of Thailand Army Forces

" Thailand army forces are the same as other countries' army forces: The military mission is to defend the nation". However, Thailand had a big problem caused by Thai Communist Party. Especially, for the late 7 years since the neigbouring countries, which was in the indochinese allience, came into the communist line for the first time. Thailand had both the communists inside and outside the border, and they believed strongly in weapon attack. Therefore, the second possibility of Thailand army forces were to be against the revolt and opposed inside the country in order to keep the peace with the Thai Communist Party.

10 years ago, Thailand had never encountered the serious internal crisis. Thailand military arm forces were sent all points to defend the security, but it was in failure because the communist forces were seperated into the villagers. Therefore, a neccessary mean must have been found out to attack the political game. Likewise, Mao tsetung used to play the political attacking game, and We (Thailand) had to make the villagers know that the ary forces were intergrated into the " Democracy Process". Before as it was known that many times of military coup d'eta committed in Thailand. But the military dictatorship image was changed into self-inquiry. Thus, the mailitary forces were integrated into the democracy process and for 5 years they took their much efforts to serve their people. In addition, they participated in a lot of generious programs for the poor. For instance, self-defense and development activities practiced in 8,000 villages. Thailand planned to provide the assistance to its villagers to be against the communism ideology. And also, the military army forces had to work with good cooperation with the ministry of interior. However, Thailand did not forget about 80 percent population of people who were in poverty. Therefore, Thailand was hoped to be slowly developed country, but this effect required all people to work hard with high patience. When this reason was applied by all of us, no longer coup d'eta was committed and all was on application. all of people who lived in the country must have the common ideas, but what happened was the past dream.

Thailand reached its luck but the policy against drug, corruption, and poverty was not effectively enforced if all of those were still in power.
