The briefings have included updates on official security statements and the current state of tensions in the border area, along with detailed explanations of security policies and management strategies issued by the Royal Thai Army and border security units.

 

In total, 11 documents—comprising six official military security directives and five translated orders—have been distributed to military attaché offices of 42 countries, both based in Bangkok and abroad. These materials were also provided to 26 Thai and foreign military attaché offices worldwide.
