Over 23,000 men have voluntarily enlisted in the armed forces this year so far, with eight venues nationwide recording a full quota of conscripted men, according to a new report by the Royal Thai Army (RTA).
Nine days into this year's annual conscription period, 445,706 eligible Thai males, or about 56% of all those who are eligible to sign up, have committed to some form of action, army spokeswoman Maj Gen Sirichan Ngathong said on Tuesday.
