Fare Basis: "F"
Airlines: NH
Routing: BKK-JFK-BKK (via NRT)
Published Fare: around THB170,000 r/t
I understand this fare is re-routeable and endorseable, but it also seems like the way I want to re-route is very limited. In other words, if I fly with NH on the sector BKK-JFK (via NRT), can I re-route and endorse the return segment to another airlines e.g. SQ & TG on JFK-FRA (o) - BKK?

Short answer is no. The clue is in the combinations paragraph and the fare construction explanation.
[i]-TRAVEL MUST BE VIA THE FARE COMBINATION POINT.
NOTE: FARE USED IN COMBINATION MUST BE SHOWN SEPARATELY ON THE TICKET.
22 INTL CONST - FARE WAS CONSTRUCTED BY COMBINING THE BKK-LAX
F FARE AND THE F ADD-ON FROM LAX TO NYC.[i/]
Your fare construction point is LAX, as explained in paragraph 22. The last part of paragraph 17 (combinations) is listed above that in the italicised rule above - it states travel must be via the fare combination point.
This is apart from the fact that the fare is for all intents and purposes a BKK-LAX fare (with an add-on). To return back to BKK via Europe is over in mileage (if a mileage fare), not permitted (if routing fare) and is not a return fare as you would be using two global indicators.
That's my read on it, anyway.
Cheers.
