One person's advice: Accept invitation to Bangkok, but go ahead and apply to openings as they occur, especially ones that interest you and feel like a good fit for all. Accept Skype interviews, and if something happens prior to fair, then gracefully bow out of Bangkok. You can make hotel reservations early that can be cancelled if luck prevails, and hold off on airplane tickets for a while, unless you purchase tickets that can be changed. With your credentials and experience, it is likely you will get interest from schools prior to the fair. Search can open up your spots at the fair to others if you cancel as there are always plenty of interested candidates for Bangkok. Not having to make that trip or incur that expense makes the effort of an active, early pursuit of positions worthwhile.

Just for reference, I'm at a tier one school in china. We try to fill open spots before Dec 1, which I believe comes before any of the job fairs.
