AWS ap-southeast-7 is an opt-in region. Teams that ran Thai workloads in Singapore before it existed may now have environments in both.
Scheduling on local time
Thailand uses Asia/Bangkok, one hour behind Singapore and with no daylight saving time. A Thai team whose environments live in a Singapore region should still schedule in Asia/Bangkok.
