A picture says a thousand words..by my reckoning you need at least 980 more words to describe the bug

I don't know the Thai name but the Latin name is Minimus milio assemblis hideus bruneta insectus similari termitis.

Are you sure it isn't the rice beetle...hard to tell without a pic but they cause bad skin reaction if they get squashed on your body. Also known as a Rove Beetle

Medium sized. BrownISH. Kind of ugly.

Hmmmm. I think I know exactly what you are describing and it's not what Chickenslegs suggested. It's Nondescriptus subjectivinae of the sub-class postapicwouldhelp

Medium sized, brownish and ugly and with dangerous pinch

Put some hypochondrin powder on that place that should kill them.

Just take a pic and we can tell you.
