You have something very valuable, don't renounce it.

Just think about the business opportunities for a second, a trusted american guy who can run companies and own land in thailand - priceless.

If you ever want to get away from the US worldwide tax system it's also extremely handy...

 

As long as you stay out of thailand no one cares about military and after a certain age you aren't forced to do it anymore anyway?

Maybe, but your are talking to a young man 17 years of age, who may see business opportunities as way less important than some essential values we should all possess. So, it could be that he just doesn't want to be associated with some things Thai..

 

And, to come back to topic, in many countries such decisions can be reversed, not sure about Thailand though.

I'd go the other way around, but that's just me..

Agreed. Only an idiot would want to keep a US citizenship. Lots of US people are looking to get rid of theirs and Uncle Sam taking taxing their worldwide income.
