That means someone tried to do a zone transfer using your server.
With dig, the syntax for this would be:
dig @your_server_ip strs.co.th AXFR
If the user's IP isn't a legitimate user of your bind server, it might
be an attempt by the user to find a remote DNS server to perform zone
transfers on his/her behalf.
