NOID Dendrobium from Thailand
This is one of the Thai orchids donated to our Botanical Garden. It's from section Dendrobium. I waas thinking it was a species, but after many hours searching the internet, I cannot find any species that look similar, so now I'm thinking a hybrid. As a stretch, I am hoping someone might recognize it.

Dendrobium Alliance, possibly, but I don't think it's genus Dendrobium. If it's a hybrid, esp. intergenera, then good luck! I did some checking and I think we need more info. When you say Thai, do you mean it came from a Thai collector, or that it grows in Thailand? That may help.
After further study of your images, the throat is similar to the Nobile Dendros. But something is just not right. The canes appear to have a cluster of leaves on the end (maybe it's just the angle of view). That's pretty uncommon in dendros. I'm just guessing here, as you can tell!

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

The leaves are scattered all along the cane...I'd say nobile may indeed be in the background but I suspect there are other species in the mix. The plant came from Thailand...probably from a Thai collector but I was given the impresson it was suppose to be a species native to Thailand, but I'm thinking its a hybrid. The canes are pretty small and short...only about 5" on that blooming cane.
