Issue, I came across an interesting observation. Thai character cluster consists of up to four parallel lines which is
-Base line ( pertains to consonants etc..)
-Upper line ( Diacritic )
-Lower line ( Diacritic /upper vowel)
-Line above the upper line (Upper Diacritic)
If you look at a good Thai language engine, a character cluster can contain up to three input characters given in the picture below

So think again when you ask someone in the interview : how many bytes does a char occupy : he might answer - multi byte( Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean)!! Recruit him. He knows what he's talking about.
