Anyway, I found by trial and error that if I also put the older 2013.30 Thai English Map in the same Map directory, somehow the search results come out in English.
That trick was described by syzygy as used by tourists who return home to China with a Garmin bought overseas which cannot input any chinese characters. They load both local Chinese and English [pinyin] maps of China but deselect the latter in the map menu. Even deselected it allows for search of POIs on the unit's English keyboard but they can then be routed to on the Chinese map which is the only one selected. With AU maps, both Sensis and HERE versions can be loaded with only one selected to enrich the POI display. Best of course not to have two detail maps covering the same area selected at the same time.
