I tried:
-open a konsole
-export LANG=th_TH.UTF-8
-I tested with date, cal, the output seems UTF-8 for me, good
-konqueror /tmp &
-create a new file with Thai file name, it appears as "???"

I tried again with fish (instead of local file access), same result.

Could you please enlighten me how to create a file with UTF-8 
filename?
