There are a lot of them here in the Philippines. We named it Bayawak(the first picture). The second one looks like a "Kabug" in Bisaya. A big bat here in the Philippines.

Yes, there are many, as I said in the post: "The monitor lizard is common in Southeast Asia".
The second creature is a giant squirrel, it isn't that rare either but doesn't live in Bangkok sewage like monitor lizards do 😁
The third creature and babies aren't bats but flying squirrels. The beasts in my images fit the description of Laotian giant flying squirrel found in 2012 in Central Laos. I took the images in Central Laos too so it must be the same species; this is a rare one.
