Does Thailand have any enemies?


Travel Info
I was wondering if Thailand has any nation/terrorist group/etc. that they are at odds with. For example, South Korea has the North, Russia has Chechnya, India and Pakistan has each other, and so on and so on. So is there any threat that Thailand has?

Only enemy i know that Thailand has are natural disasters such as flash floods, tsunamis etc
the border w/Burma can be uneasy at times.. The three southern provinces have problems w/ an islamic populace - other than that, mostly just political fighting with each other??
WEll, if you are following the news in Asia, today was a good day to get an answer to your question.
7 or so Thai soldiers were killed in one of the southern provinces that continuously have trouble with Muslim fighters.

Muslims in the 3 southern provinces have complained of porr treatment since the beginning of the co-existence. This last year was particularly violent, with over 2300 people killed in the area. It is more than just car bombs or a street flare-up these days. There are fully trained snipers on both sides.

This year is the first in recent where Thailand really felt a dent in their tourism due to the violence. It is a shame because the tourism industry is just starting to recover from the tsunami. I live in Korea and many families here forwent the Thailand vacation to safer areas like China nad Korea's southern islands. IT remains tempting because of hte cheap incentives the Thai governemnt gives to come there.
There is an insurgency in the very deep south, the provinces bordering Malaysia.

Oh and a guy called Thaksin Shinawatra.
Hi,

His enemy is invisible, terrorist are from Malaysia and Cambodgia......
