Muangthong United striker Teerasil Dangda opened the scoring for Winfried Schafer's side in the 29th minute when he latched onto a through-ball and forced his way into the box, before lifting the ball over the onrushing Devala Gorrick.
However, the All-Stars equalised just before halftime when Douglas Cardozo fired home from the spot, although the War Elephants restored their lead on the hour mark when Sumanya Purisay applied the finishing touches to a sweeping team move from ten yards out.
And there was no coming back for the Premier League selection side from then on as Thailand put their foot on the pedal, with Chatree Chimtalay adding a third from close range in the 80th minute, before Mongkol Namuad and Adul Lahso completed the rout with further strikes in the closing stages.
