Anti-Thai sentiment involves hostility or hatred that is directed towards Thai people, or the state of Thailand.

Incidents by country

Cambodia

Anti-Thai sentiment began to flare in Cambodia due to concern from Cambodians about possible Thai political designs that the western part of Cambodia are belong to be part of Thai province.^[1] This led to a violent protest in January 2003 where Thai embassy was burned and Thai business was vandalised after a Cambodian newspaper article falsely alleged that a Thai actress claimed that Angkor Wat belonged to Thailand and the country should take over the ancient temple.^[2]^[3] The hatred towards Thai people from the Cambodians was escalate in 2008 when both countries involved in the conflict on the ownership of Preah Vihear Temple.^[4]

China

A known anti-sentiment towards Thai people in China existed in 1934 following the discrimination of Chinese in Thailand by Thai authorities. Some of the Chinese that have been deported from Thailand began to spread anti-Thai sentiment in China, by propagandising "Thai discriminate attitude" to called for an immediate boycott from the Chinese authorities to all products that been imported from Thailand.^[5]

Laos

Since the ancient times, Lao has been against Siamese territorial expansions although both shared the similar religion and there is even a request from Laotian to the French colonial authorities during the colonial times to demand a recovery to Lao lost territory on the Khorat Plateau and to get back the Emerald Buddha from Siam.^[6] After achieving independence under a Communist rule, the present Laos government are much pro-towards Vietnam and there is a rejection from the Laotian community who were mainly pro-towards socialism against Thailand influence as a democratic country.^[7]

Myanmar

As both nation shared the same religion and involved in several wars in the past, though in the present there is more anti-Myanmar sentiment in Thailand than anti-Thai in Myanmar as been proved from the publications of Thai school textbook, films and media reports. The Myanmar government did not regard Thailand as their main enemy, though they did not consider Thailand as a "trusted friend" too.^[8]
