I have turned arround this issue, through adding itemRenderer inside List/spinnerList, it renders the Arabic text (only Tohama font) properly on Galaxy Tab II

<s:itemRenderer>
    <fx:Component>
        <s:ItemRenderer >
            <s:Label text="{label}" right="10" paddingTop="5" paddingBottom="5" fontSize="24" />
        </s:ItemRenderer>
    </fx:Component>
</s:itemRenderer>
