Siam had to sacrifice part of its territory to settle the crisis when France blocked the Chao Phraya River with two of its warships. It proved to be an object and priceless lesson for the Siamese, as during the crisis, foreigners serving in the Thai Government sector were powerless to intercede. On conclusion, King Chulalongkorn (King Rama V) immediately commanded the establishment of the Royal Thai Naval Academy and even sent a few of his sons to study administration and military affairs in Europe, so that on their return, they were well able to develop naval equipment and training in Siam to be on a par with international standards.
