The purposes of this study are to assess the politics, economy, and diplomacy of Thailand for their major characteristics and trends in 2017 and propose their future prospects. In Thailand, the official mourning period of one year ended in October, 2017 when a funeral was held for the former king Bhumibol Adulyadej. Former King Bhumibol, who ruled the country for 70 years, played a decisive role in politics in the country. Since the military was able to maintain the legitimacy of its political interventions by taking advantage of his power as a king, the absence of a king with strong power was a huge blow to the military. What moves did the military make in the last year after losing the driving force behind the legitimacy of its political interventions? What effects did the mourning period of one year have on Thai economy under the military regime? Where are the politics, economy, and diplomatic relations of Thailand going? One of the major characteristics of Thai politics in 2017 was an attempt for the military regime to partner with current King Maha Vajiralongkorn and establish a reciprocal symbiotic relationship with him. The military needs strong royal power to ensure the legitimacy of its political interventions, and the new king is in need for support from the military to solidify his unstable position, which means that they are in a relationship of mutual understanding today. Despite the recession of the consumption atmosphere around the nation due to the mourning period of one year, Thai economy maintained its growth tendency in 2017. As for its diplomatic relations, Thailand kept its friendly relations with China and opened the possibilities of improving its distant relations with Western countries especially including the U.S.A. after the coup in 2017.
