WAR!!! WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR? (an editorial)

Absolutely EVERYTHING!
War is one of the major pillars of this game, it keep soldiers interested, economies working, and well, the game fun in general.
Thailand has a problem, or rather, blessing, when it comes to war.
Thailand is completely safe, and surrounded by one of the world's superpowers, Indonesia, and we have very very good relations with indonesia.
This means, Thailand is perfectly safe from invasion, but at the same time has no room or ability to expand.
I believe this could serve as a good draw for soldiers.
If the Thai people were to expand it's military, and make a large mobile force, i believe we could expand the population of thailand rapidly.
This army could work in state owned ticket and weapons companies while in thailand, thus fueling themselves, and maybe even in a couple state companies in indonesia when off to war, because i assume Indonesia would be where our military would be stationed very often.
A bigger emphasis on the thai military would also draw in many more people from around the world, because they all want to be a part of an active fighting force that allows them to enjoy the military aspect of the game more than their home nation does. It would also be a fun aspect for those who are more into roleplay as a soldier, and it would just be a more interesting aspect to thailand.
This bigger push towards a slight militarization of thailand would be followed with an ambitious recruiting campaign across the eworld, maybe in more languages than english. I believe that a successful media campaign that has an emphasis on the newly reformed thai mobile forces might interest quite a few people, and bring many to our smaller enation.
Now, i dont believe thailand should become a military dictatorship, or a socialized nation, but i do think it would be a good idea to set up state companies where the troopers in reality build their own weapons and tickets.
I think that a successful buildup of a military in thailand would make for a much more interesting enation, and would bring a large amount of people into the nation and build up the labor force, wich I know is a major problem
Just my two cents about a slight militarization and it's benefits.

Maybe open up war games with somebody when our services are not needed?
Malaysia may be intrested, or perhaps we could offer the oppertunity for training to Indonesia? They dont fight Romania every single day you know, only most days.
indonesia or malaysia might be interesting choices.
lest we forget the high oil just below us

Owning a weapons company I may be biased but I'd be for some fighting.
WE FIGHT!
Instead of Peace or Atlantis, wouldn't it be wise for Thailand to ally with other non-aligned or neutral countries to prevent being pushed around or living in fear? A sort of alliance of neutrality.
What's really keeping Thailand from becoming a vassal to one of the super powers?
I certainly agree that war would make Thailand more attractive to some citizens. Right now we're a sleepy little backwater, which is fine, we have good and mostly selfless citizens here which prompted me to stay here, but the game is only interesting so long without somekind of chance, adventure, etc.
I can barely stand politics in real life, let alone a game 🙂 (actually politics in eThailand are way better than real life)
Thailand will not become a vassal, simply because it lacks strategic importance to all nations.
eThailand is not going to become a vassel state, its going to become a slave state to eIndonesia at the rate its going...
nobody is safe from Indo invasion.
