There's some rich Thais

The combined net worths of Thailand's top 10 billionaires account for around 25% of the nation's GDP, which is US$495 billion in 2022.

Not one is military, ( guess their wealth is not reported

)

Unsurprisingly, all ten are Chinese ethnicity.
I note that the King is not on the list.
His wealth is estimated at $30bn - $70bn.

I think a huge percentage of Thais are of Chinese ethnicity.

11 to 14 percent of Thais are ethnically Chinese.

What is the corresponding net worth of immigrants in America since 1945?

You didn't really answer the deliberately, racially-charged question. Perhaps you don't want to.

What percentage do the Chinese -Thai control?

Let's play your game in the US:

How much of the economy is controlled by various religious groups?

I bet you don't answer.

this thread is NOT
about the US
NOR
Religion

Yup. It's about rich Thais. I noted that the top ten are ethnically Chinese and that I was unsurprised. Equally in pre Pol Pot Cambodia, 90% of the economic activity was in the hands of the small Chinese minority. The top Oknhas are all Chinese today. Most traders and landlords I deal with personally are Chinese or part Chinese. Why? They get up early, work hard, bargain hard and take care of family business. Consistently!

Schlarry, you didn't even ask a question. You simply wrote an eroneous statement.
"I think a huge percentage of Thais are of Chinese ethnicity."
Then you go off on a US religious tangent.
But I'll humour you. The Catholic church is the biggest landowner in the US. Ethnically Indian families top the household income list. I'm guessing they're mostly Hindu.
Time for a herbal cigarette. You've brought my 4:20 threshold forward. I thank you for that.
