Not sure the level of Maths is quite as good as you may think. On paper they can solve huge sums and complicated equations but when it comes to applying it, they are often found wanting. Most maths exams I've seen have also been multiple choice. Problem come with the usual Thai teacher not asking any questions and challenging students to think and apply skills. Not true of every school but certainly what I've seen.
