摘要 This study examines Sino–Thai relationships in the context of the developmental state theory and the dependent developmental theory focusing on the pre- and post-pandemic eras of the Belt and Road Initiative, Thailand 4.0, and the Eastern Economic Corridor (eec). The study finds that prior to the outbreak of covid-19, Thailand chose to pursue both dependency theory and developmental state theory. However, after the pandemic, Thailand faced severe democratic erosion, and Bangkok decided to follow the path of dependency theory, ultimately relying heavily on Chinese assistance, leading to disappointment throughout the country. These issues have exacerbated anti-Chinese and anti-Chinese-Thai–conglomerate sentiments, as many believe that Thai government reliance on Chinese support was influenced by the lobbying efforts of Chinese-Thai businessmen. These sentiments have become a feature of student protests and the Milk Tea Alliance. This indicates that the close relationship between Thai elites and Beijing is not shared by many Thais, and suggests that the Thai government should reconsider its development strategy. Additionally, both Chinese and Chinese-Thai businessmen should be aware of the path chosen by the Thai government and its effects on their business interests.
