Default Unknown enamel collar badges

These came with a lot of other badges and buttons. Clearly well made but I have absolutely no idea what they are or where to begin to look. Any thoughts welcome.

That is interesting as this button was amongst the lot and is clearly Thai.

My wife took a look at this picture of the button and said it looks like Ministry of Education. She is a Thai by the way.

Trident - "Emblem of the Royal House of Chakri, the ruling Dynasty of Thailand (formerly Siam), founded in 1782. The Emblem depicts a 'Chakra' (disc) and a 'Trisula' (trident) intertwined."

Second part - Variation of Royal Thai Army emblem.

Third part - Incorporates part of Royal Thai army cap badge.

Haven't found out which unit but hopefully this may point you in the right direction.
