It could very well be Katahdin.
This youtube video summary(i cant watch it at work) says Katahdin in thailand
This paper shows testing katahdin in the Philippines with one of the contacts being a University in Thailand.

This study was also done in Thailand and lists 104 katahdin sheep included in it from 1998-2012.

Interestingly enough the study also mentions Bond, Corridale, Dorper, Santa Innes, and a Thai native breed.
This is anther study performed in Thailand, again showing Katahdin and Dorper both in Thailand from at least 1998-2011. It also mentions Merino, Dorset, and Barbadoes Blackbelly. It also shows at least 2 of the 4 research stations had Dorper and Kathadin sheep.

This link show that in 1997 the first purebred katahdin sheep were shipped to Thailand from the US.

It also mentions the first shipement of Santa Innes from Brazil to Thailand in 1997.
So i would say the odds of it being a Kathadin or Katahdin cross are fairly high.

It has been decided that for the time being we will wait until we get a bit more organised. DH has said yes he definitely wants sheep, just gotta get the time right first. At the moment we are putting in a bit of 7 ft high fencing...so yeah....I can be patient. Will finally be able to let the animals we do have out to free range for the first time in a year!
