Situation
Currently at war with China. Reasons indicate creating bridge to have access to Indonesia but now that Indonesia is part of Cartel alliance along with VN, reason may not be the same as before.

Now that Asia is becoming more and more unstable, will this indicate a change in position for Thailand and make their move?

No clear alliance has been made for Taiwan and in the current war, they haven't been a major contributor yet. Possibility of Taiwan to take action may incur.
Situation
Taiwan has not been active in wars since the beginning so there is not much information regarding the situation in Taiwan except for politics. Situation is like Thailand, being neutral, probably observing and waiting.
7.) Philippines
Description
Ranked 21 in Citizen statistics and 26th in productivity and has access to oil and medium grain. Production has been mostly on tickets to supply countries in need. Having a border with 4 countries and no official alliance, Philippines is also neutral as of now in the Asian war.
Politics
Current President is
SichiRonoa . With population not as great as other countries, Philippines has been focusing on the active citizens of the country and making sure to keep them united. Government is functioning well and well coordinated. Has made good relations with nearby countries which made it hard for PH to choose a side and thus ending in neutrality.
Situation
Having ended the first war with Indonesia in a draw and peace treaty, now Asia has started to become a war zone not only for Asian countries but also from non-asian countries. With alliances growing and countries getting stronger, neutrality might not be the best solution but due to relations with fighting countries this makes it hard to choose one for PH as making alliances will always have its costs.
Countries in Asia will sooner or later participate in wars to come or make alliances to strengthen their relations with other countries. With alliances already made in some countries, there are still those that have remained neutral up until now. The future is unsure and only time can tell what the outcome will be here in Asia.

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
