Generally Thais are friendly people who try to avoid conflict, and I wouldn't say they have any enemies as such.
I believe they generally enjoy good relationships with most European countries, which is re-inforced by many tourists coming to Thailand and leaving with good memories, and also a close relationship with Japan and the US who are significant trading partners/investors in Thailand. They are also good friends with their neighbours in Laos, who speak a fairly similar language.
That said some of these international relationships are currently under some strain as the protectionist Thai government (sorry military junta !)is threatening to impose tighter regulations of foreign owned businesses in Thailand. This had led to diplomatic discussions with many countries I am sure.
Relationships are less warm with traditional rivals such as Myanmar- who Thais have not forgiven for sacking the then capital at Ayuthaya, destroying many temples and Buddha images, Cambodia their immediate neighbours and recently Singapore, whose government was recently involved in the purchase of a Thai company which owned a satellite. The Thais did not want the satellite to go into foreign ownership.

Mr. Nowhereman, I recommend you if you have no knowledge or has not been educated well enough, then you'd better shut your mouth up.
Your answer (not only this one) has lot of bias and not accurately reflect the fact. You are someone who benefits from previous government and may not be happy with the current government who're trying to bring cheaters to court. Question to you: How much money you or your company earned (legally or illegally) from previous administration?
