Thai language sorting on MySql for google cloud SQL

[Konstantinos Kokkorogiannis]

We use Google Cloud SQL as the database server for a wordpress site.

We use the colation utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci

One of our editors in Thailand pointed out that the Alphabetic sorting is wrong in the results when the db is queried.

Their suggestion was to

```

modify 'Collate' of our database from 
'utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci' or whatever to 'utf8mb4_thai_520_w2' which is available already in Maria DB 10.1.15 or above version.

```

But this collation is not available in mysql for Google Cloud SQL.

Anyone has any ideas on a solution?
