Back home, I used to buy and make "Bosto" rice.

The rice was packaged in a handy pack, ready to boil.
Boil in hot water for 5 minutes and ready.
When the rice was ready, you could pick the rice 1 by 1.
Not sticky like the Thai rice.
And above all, I loved the taste.

I have been looking in many shops, but I could not find anywhere something that would be like "Bosto" rice.
I have seen something similar in Foodland in Pattaya.
But the price was way over the top.

Does anyone here knows where I can buy this rice in Korat?

I've never heard of Bosto rice but it sounds like par-boiled boil-in-the-bag rice.

Not all Thai rice is sticky. Far from it. Get yourself some nice Thai Jasmine rice. Add some extra flavour yourself if you need it.
If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. If you can't explain it at all, you don't understand it at all.
