That is lower than I would expect to see. Some banks charge less for certain countries because of international branch networks/relationships etc and usually Thailand is not on the list of countries for cheap money transfer.
The usual course of action is to send a SWIFT payment, which (to my knowledge) is not possible to do over internet banking because SWIFT is an independent system used by banks to effect payments, using built in encryption between the two banks involved in the transaction - which is not mandatory and therefore means it is not possible to just simply pay money from your bank to anywhere in the world. The banks would need to have swapped electronic codes first, before being able to effect payments between each other.
It used to be so simple in the old days of Tested Telexes !! 55555
