Amazing work!

Inkscape 0.42 (just released) has good support for i18n, supporting many 
more languages.

See:

Test i18n file: http://www.inkscape.org/doc/examples/i18n.svg

The language you mention, is it Thai or Taiwanese? Thai is a distinct 
script while Taiwanese is similar
to mainland Chinese. Typically Thai is difficult to render, as there is 
reordering of the glyphs.
