It seems that you have not yet understood what I wrote (I'll
quote it here):

Coding systems defined in code-pages decode non-ASCII
characters into charsets mule-unicode-xxxx-yyyy (including
Thai characters).  But, tis620 decodes Thai characters into
the charset thai-tis620.

As iso-8859-11 is defined in code-pages.el, it decodes byte
sequences into characters of the charset
mule-unicode-0100-24ff, and to display them, an iso10646-1
font is used (by default).  On the other hand, as
thai-tis620 decodes byte seuquences into characters of the
charset thai-tis620, an TIS620 font is used for them.

*Now* I finally understand! And loading an Elisp file with some fontsets configured and choosing the right one I can see the Thai characters!

Sorry for wasting your time!

(Which makes me think of not launching GNU Emacs with -Q in future but with -Q -l <a bit of Elisp code> ...)
