Can Thailand pay off its Myanmar problem? | The Signal Ep 39
Play
Myanmar’s civil war is increasingly becoming Thailand’s problem. Violence has crossed the border, criminal networks are exploiting the instability, and Thailand continues to shelter tens of thousands of refugees.
Instead of continuing to keep Myanmar at arm’s length, Thailand is now pursuing what it calls “calibrated re-engagement.” The goal is to bring its neighbor in alignment with ASEAN again, while addressing problems that Thailand can no longer ignore.
