The study was done by gathering data and information from documentary sources, in-depth interviews and focus groups. It was revealed that the management of the reserve system was still inefficient in that the structure of agencies was still inappropriate, lack of the clarity, and not in the same standard. In addition, the Army ROTC curriculum and the reserve training course were still inappropriate and the standards of those courses were not similar to the training course of active components which caused reserves being unable to work with the active components efficiently. Moreover, the reserves still lacked understanding of the concept and ideology in sacrificing personal gains for the public and the nation. Other issues were that, furthermore, people and other sectors did not have the opportunity to participate, a lack of clarity in the laws about benefits for the reserves, obsolete rules and regulations that did not support the future actions efficiently.
