If you book HKT-BKK on TG, your bags will certainly be tagged to final destination. TG at HKT is doing this very well and frequently, even for non Star Alliance partners. I dont know for PG. Please keep in mind that there are 2 airports in BKK; your international connection will be from BKK rather than DMK. Please make sure you dont book a low cost carrier to/from DMK.
I was about to post the same thing. Not all local carriers to HKT fly out of Suvarnabhumi. If you're trying to connect and have to transfer across town at the wrong time of day, good luck with that.
