No, the font rendering system in version 1.3.1 of Sun’s Java 2 Runtime Environments cannot handle the complex layout rules of these scripts. There’s work underway to add support for Thai and Hindi in a future release. Also, there may be other Java 2 runtime environments that do support these scripts.
