Home and Student version available on lazada for 3990 Baht.

That said, I used MS Office for 10 or so years, then my daughter convinced me to switch to google docs and google drive. Their documents and spreadsheets are virtually the same as MS. Free storage on the cloud. Information available to you no matter where you are in the world. You can identify document for off-line access. If you collaborate with others, it's simple to share a document. No more need to 'save'.......your document is saved instantaneously. If you want, you can backup any documents to a thumb drive/hard drive. All documents created in https.

Have you considered downloading OpenOffice for free?
It supports all Ms Office formats.

Is a document or spreadsheet created by OpenOffice compatable, readable and updateable, by someone using a Microsoft Office product.

You can save your output from the free Open Office (or Libre Office) as 'Microsoft' output.
Although, if you are sending documents from any system to send to another person you should, realistically, send it as a PDF file rather than as a company formatted file. That will mean that any receiver can read the document on any device or system they use. That applies no matter what Office system you are using...

To buy Office 2016 is, frankly, a waste of money.
If you must use Microsoft systems then use the free cloud Microsoft system Office 365.

Not sure about Open Office (but I expect that the same is true as they come from the same base) but the user has to save the spreadsheet in Microsoft Office format for it to be readable by Excel.
The reverse is not true, any Excel file can be read & executed by Libre Office Calc..
