China and America have been their only colonial influences of note and no one would accuse them of being civilised.

Strange statement. Thailand declared war on both the US and UK while they were bowing to the Japs during WW2.

On what do you base this claim of significant British influence in Thailand post-WW2?

should of kept my mouth shut can't find it now, after WW2 didn't the Brits take oveR the Admin of Thailand and introduce laws or was that way back in the 1800s when they came and traded.

Sorry long time since i read it.
