Actually Burma could be a very interesting place to explore in T2K - especially considering the fact that you have enough canon information on Thailand to make a basis for a good campaign in the area from the Bangkok module, either using MERC or the regular game.
And considering the absolute collapse of India, Pakistan and China and how far Thailand's military has declined it could become the dominant military power in the area if the junta could hold together. And there is a good chance that their oil refineries could have been left intact.
All three are very small, with the biggest of them only able to handle 26,000 bbl/day, far below the 100,000 bbl/day that was the usual threshold for getting nuked. (Thanlyin Refinery (Myanma Petro-chemical Enterprise), 26,000 bbl/d, Thanbayakan Refinery (Myanma Petro-chemical Enterprise), 25,000 bbl/d and Chauk Refinery (Myanma Petro-chemical Enterprise), 6,000 bbl/d)
Thus you could have the combination of a large although very basically equipped military combined with just enough oil production to let them be dangerous to their neighbors
