Along with installing libthai solves the rendering problem.
Could someone have a look and tell me what they think please?

Hi,
Thank you for putting Thai support issue on the table.
Waree contains GSUB rules for proper substitutions, while Tahoma does not.
Legacy fonts like Tahoma rely on composition-by-substitution, and requires the
rendering engine to properly pick up IPA glyphs with vendor-specific
code points.
