Yes, the yardstick for immigration ought to be table manners. Any culture which eats with their bare hands off the floor should be banned. We only want quality people.

:-) What about chopsticks?

Chopsticks are far more complicated and elegant eating utensils than the crude knife and fork.

Irrelevant aside: the Thais don't use chopsticks, only a fork and spoon. But don't get it backwards, they'll laugh at you. The spoon is used for eating, while the fork is used to push items off of the plate and onto the spoon. You can use the fork for your pad thai.
