If she do not want them in the Thai army, let them enroll in the British, that should do it for them. 

 

Or as some worried mothers do here in the village, pay 30 000,- to let them skip the lottery! The thai boys are really looked after by their moms, but they treat their girls very different. No mercy

Perhaps you think the same.

 

No modern army fights without protection for its troops other than the Thai army, who send their troops out in unarmoured pick up trucks and on motorcycles to protect teachers and government workers at the same time and place every day.

 

A good professional army is led by good officers from the front. When was the last time any officer above the rank of lieutenant or the odd captain was injured in the line of duty. When was the last time a senior officer was seen leading patrols from the front and was injured or killed?

 

Back in 1978 South Africa introduced the Buffel armoured  truck to protect its troops from landmines and ambushes.

The Buffel was the first truly effective landmine-protected armored personnel carrier to enter service anywhere. The South African Army began deploying it in the operational area from 1978.

 

It has been replaced by the Mamba APC which would be practical in Thailand.

In Thailand when too many troops get killed and wounded the fat cat generals just order some more as they are cheap and expendable, and not as valuable as generals, who sit in comfort well away from the fighting in their air conditioned offices and armoured limos.

Thailand has their own APC's.

Of course they do, but where are the APCs positioned? They are not where they are needed, which is in the south to protect the troops and police, but around bases in or near Bangkok, just in case the peasants revolt.
