Thaksin sought to position Thailand as a regional leader, initiating various development projects in poorer neighbouring countries. As part of its effort to increase international ties, Thailand had reached out to such regional organisations as the Organization of American States (OAS) and the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE). When East Timor gained independence from Indonesia, Thailand contributed troops to the international peacekeeping effort. In the 2000s, Thailand had taken an active role on the international stage and participated fully in international and regional organisations. Thailand has developed increasingly close ties with other members, with progressing regional co-operation in economic, trade, banking, political, and cultural matters. During the Cold War, Thailand sought to prevent the spread of communism so it joined the United States, including participating in SEATO alliance, sending expeditions to Korea and Vietnam, and offering the US to use its base.
Thailand was the most visited country in Southeast Asia in 2013, according to the World Tourism Organisation. In 2019, Thailand received 39.8 million international tourists, ahead of United Kingdom and Germany and was the fourth highest in international tourism earning 60.5 billion US dollars. Prior to the pandemic, Thailand was the world's eighth most visited country according to the World Tourism rankings compiled by the United Nations World Tourism Organisation. As of 2012, due to its favourable taxation for 2-door pick-ups at only 3–12% against 17–50% for passenger cars, Thailand was the second largest consumer of pick-up trucks in the world, after the US. As of 2025[update], the Thai automotive industry was the largest in Southeast Asia and the 12th largest in the world. In 2014, Credit Suisse reported that Thailand was the world's third most unequal country, behind Russia and India. It is the second largest economy in Southeast Asia after Indonesia, ranking midway in the wealth spread in Southeast Asia as the fourth richest nation according to GDP per capita.
Coal-fired power plants produce an additional 20% of electricity, with the remainder coming from biomass, hydro, and biogas. This means the country uses about twice as much biocapacity as it contains, resulting in a deficit. Bank of Thailand reported that during 2006–16, Thailand's top 5% largest companies had 85% of all corporate revenue in the nation, and only 6% of the country's companies were in export industries, which made up 60% of the country's GDP.
Varieties of Chinese are also spoken by the large Thai Chinese population, with the Teochew dialect best-represented. The largest of Thailand's minority languages is the Lao dialect of Isan spoken in the northeastern provinces. It is the principal language of education and government and spoken throughout the country. Twenty million Central Thai (together with approximately 650,000 Khorat Thai) made up approximately 20,650,000 (34.1 per cent) of the state's population of 60,544,937 at the time of completion of the Mahidol University Ethnolinguistic Maps of Thailand data (1997). The remaining 4.1% of the population are Burmese (2.0%), others (1.3%), and unspecified (0.9%).
Phrom also marched the troops south to occupy Chakangrao from the enemy as well as founding the city of Songkwae. Mangrai unified the surrounding area and created a network of states through political alliances to the east and north of the Mekong. As a result, several Tai city-states were established, scattered from Điện Biên Phủ in present-day northwestern Vietnam and highland Southeast Asia to northeastern India.
