It's because we caught in between French and British territories (Indochina & Burma respectively) so they just used us as a border.

Actually we lost quite handful of land mass to the European too especially the western side of Frence Indochina (we annexed part of Laos and Cambodia a long time before that), but since most of the land we lost are our colony, not the main territory. It's still be OK.

Actually when the Axis defeat the Allied early in the war, Japan return some of the land that had been conquered by Frence and Britain to us, but after those days in Hiroshima and Nagasaki you can guess it, we lost it back to France and Britain (but luckily eventhough technically we lost the war but there are a group called "Serithai" that sided with the allies underground and this Serithai with the help of the US, keep us independent)
