Bangkok’s Tourist Police launched a major Halloween security operation on Saturday as 60,000 revellers were expected to descend on Khao San Road. Tourist Police Commissioner Police Lieutenant General Phongsayam Meekhanthong personally led a 95-strong deployment to protect visitors and maintain order. Meanwhile, police warned of theft, suspicious drinks, dangerous crowds and six common tourist scams. Organisers forecast spending exceeding ฿200 million across the two-night festival. However, the celebrations come amid a police corruption investigation, a midnight closing crackdown and a bitter licensing dispute. Only four of more than 30 surveyed venues hold proper entertainment licences, while officials examine reforms affecting over 1,000 Bangkok nightlife and entertainment businesses.

Bangkok’s Tourist Police launched a major Halloween security operation on Saturday, deploying 95 officers and volunteers to Khao San Road. Up to 60,000 revellers are expected across the two-night festival, with organisers forecasting spending exceeding ฿200 million.

Tourist Police Commissioner Police Lieutenant General Phongsayam Meekhanthong personally led the mobilisation and inspected the famous nightlife district. Meanwhile, national police issued urgent warnings over theft, suspicious drinks, tourist scams and dangerous crowds.

The operation comes amid a police corruption investigation, a midnight closing crackdown and a growing battle over entertainment licences.

Tourist Police chief leads 95-strong Halloween deployment and inspects crowded Khao San Road

The security operation began outside Chana Songkhram Police Station on Saturday, October 31. Phongsayam assembled senior commanders and officers ahead of the evening celebrations.

Alongside him was Police Major General Surapong Thaiprasert, commander of Tourist Police Division 1. Other senior officers joined the mobilisation, which brought together four separate security and public assistance groups.

The deployment comprised 40 Tourist Police officers and 30 officers from Chana Songkhram Police Station. Additionally, Phra Nakhon District supplied 10 municipal officers, while 15 Tourist Police volunteers completed the contingent.

The combined force was assigned crime prevention, public order and visitor assistance duties. Its responsibilities also extended to residents, entertainment establishments and businesses operating in the crowded district.

Following the assembly, Phongsayam personally led an inspection of Khao San Road. He met foreign tourists, Thai visitors, business owners and entertainment venue staff. During the inspection, the commissioner questioned operators about conditions and the atmosphere surrounding the Halloween celebrations. He also sought feedback on tourism activity and the situation facing businesses.

Officers ordered to patrol proactively as Tourist Police expand direct assistance to visitors and firms

Officers received instructions to maintain direct contact with visitors and respond promptly to requests for assistance. In particular, Phongsayam ordered personnel to take a proactive approach rather than wait for incidents.

They were also directed to remain accessible to tourists and members of the public. The deployment placed senior Tourist Police commanders directly inside one of Bangkok’s busiest nightlife districts.

The operation follows the Royal Thai Police’s crime prevention policy for fiscal year 2027. That programme prioritises crime suppression, public assistance and closer engagement with local communities.

As part of this, officers are expected to work directly with businesses and residents. The Tourist Police have also incorporated two established public assistance initiatives into their operations.

The first is One Team One Strongest for Safety Tourism, which promotes coordinated security work. The second, Your First Friend, encourages tourists to approach officers directly when they need assistance. Both programmes form part of the Tourist Police’s wider visitor protection strategy. Their emergency assistance hotline, 1155, operates 24 hours a day.

Khao San Road braces for 60,000 Halloween revellers as police issue nationwide warnings over crime

The mobilisation coincides with a massive Halloween celebration organised by the Khao San Road Business Association. The two-night festival, One Halloween: Creature of the Night, began on Friday, October 30. Celebrations continue on Saturday, with approximately 30,000 visitors expected each evening. Consequently, organisers anticipate total attendance reaching 60,000 across the weekend.

Association president Sanga Ruangwattanakul said organisers had committed more than ฿5 million to the celebrations. The programme includes elaborate horror installations, street performances, a parade and major costume competitions. Nearly ฿1 million has been allocated to competition prizes. Furthermore, American specialists were hired to help create the Halloween decorations.

The event is expected to attract substantial numbers of international tourists alongside Thai visitors. Organisers also anticipate spending exceeding ฿100 million each evening. Across both nights, that places projected commercial activity above ฿200 million. These figures are organisers’ forecasts, rather than confirmed attendance or revenue.

In parallel, the Royal Thai Police issued a nationwide Halloween security advisory on Saturday. Police Lieutenant Colonel Boonyanuch Phongiswaranan, deputy spokesperson for the Royal Thai Police, announced the warning. She identified large public gatherings as potential targets for criminals. The advisory specifically highlighted theft, suspicious drinks, crowd dangers and road accidents.

Police warn of suspicious drinks, theft and fires as Tourist Police launch six-scam Halloween campaign

Police urged visitors to secure their belongings while moving through crowded entertainment districts. They also advised against travelling alone through unfamiliar areas. Of particular concern were drinks offered by strangers or left unattended. Officers warned partygoers to remain alert to suspicious beverages during Halloween celebrations.

Another warning addressed fires and smoke inside crowded venues. Police instructed visitors to leave dangerous areas immediately rather than stop to record videos. Likewise, groups were encouraged to establish meeting points before entering large gatherings. This would allow separated friends to regroup if crowds disrupted contact.

Road safety formed another part of the police advisory. Officers warned against drink-driving and encouraged the use of public transport. Separately, police issued video guidance specifically for foreign visitors attending Halloween celebrations. The national police emergency hotline remains 191, while the Tourist Police can be contacted on 1155.

On another front, Tourist Police Commissioner Phongsayam launched a Halloween campaign targeting six common tourist scams. The initiative, entitled Six Ghosts of Fraud, uses the festival’s imagery to identify established criminal practices. Its warnings cover transport, tourist attractions, rental services, restaurants, nightlife businesses and retail outlets. Foreign visitors were urged to check prices and conditions before handing over money.

Taxi overcharging, nightlife fees and rental disputes targeted in Tourist Police Halloween fraud warning

The first warning concerns taxi and transport overcharging. Police highlighted drivers refusing meters and operators imposing unclear or excessive fares. The second targets fraudsters falsely claiming popular tourist attractions are closed. These claims are used to redirect visitors towards alternative destinations or businesses.

Rental disputes form the third category, particularly those involving boats and jet skis. Police identified contested damage claims and unclear rental contracts among the principal problems. The fourth warning concerns restaurants and service providers concealing prices. It also covers unexpected charges imposed after customers have received services.

Nightlife businesses feature prominently in the fifth category. Police warned about undisclosed entrance fees, drink prices and additional charges at entertainment establishments. Finally, the sixth category targets gemstone and tailoring scams. These include misleading sales claims, expensive purchases and disputes involving refunds.

Phongsayam urged tourists to establish prices and contractual conditions before making payments. The campaign accompanies the Tourist Police’s wider Halloween security operations across Thailand. It also places particular emphasis on financial scams affecting international visitors. Tourists experiencing difficulties can contact the 1155 hotline at any hour.

Ghost-faced Tourist Police greet Halloween crowds as Bangkok imposes traffic restrictions near Khao San

Notably, some Tourist Police officers adopted an unusual appearance for their Halloween duties on Khao San Road. Video published by Thairath News on Saturday showed officers wearing ghost makeup while welcoming visitors. They continued assisting tourists while participating in the festival atmosphere. Their appearance formed part of the visible police presence during the celebrations.

The footage showed Tourist Police engaging directly with visitors in the entertainment district. Their activities accompanied the larger security mobilisation led by Phongsayam and his senior commanders. Officers were also instructed to maintain contact with entertainment operators throughout the festivities. The combined operation brought local police, municipal authorities and volunteers into the same security effort.

Elsewhere in central Bangkok, police introduced extensive traffic restrictions on Saturday. The measures were connected to a royal ceremonial procession rehearsal near the Grand Palace and Ratchadamnoen Avenue. Both areas are close to the Khao San Road nightlife district. Altogether, 16 roads were subject to restrictions, with 23 alternative routes identified.

The restrictions covered morning and afternoon periods, with evening movements expected to continue until approximately 7.30 pm. As a result, motorists travelling towards the Halloween celebrations could encounter difficulties accessing the historic centre. Police advised drivers and taxi passengers to consider alternative routes. The traffic police hotline, 1197, remains available for assistance.

Khao San nightlife scandal deepens as ministers confront corruption and widespread licensing breaches

The Halloween operation also comes amid a major controversy surrounding Khao San Road’s entertainment businesses. The district has become the focus of investigations into suspected police corruption and illegal payments. At the same time, midnight closing restrictions have intensified a dispute over entertainment licensing. Business operators are pressing for changes to the regulations governing nightlife establishments.

On Friday, October 30, Prime Minister’s Office Minister Paradorn Prissananantakul chaired a high-level meeting at Metropolitan Police Bureau headquarters. Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt attended alongside Metropolitan Police Commissioner Police Lieutenant General Siam Boonsom. The discussions examined proposed changes to nightlife regulations affecting Khao San Road and neighbouring Rambuttri Road.

Central to the talks was a proposed Khao San–Rambuttri Sandbox. The arrangement could permit qualifying entertainment establishments to remain open later. However, the discussions followed investigations into suspected illegal payments involving nightlife businesses and police officers. The corruption controversy has brought renewed attention to licensing and enforcement practices.

A recent inspection exposed the extent of the licensing problem. Only four of more than 30 surveyed establishments possessed proper entertainment licences. The findings revealed that most venues examined lacked the required authorisation. They also raised questions about existing arrangements governing entertainment businesses outside designated nightlife zones.

More than 1,000 Bangkok venues face scrutiny as officials consider new safety rules and later opening

The problem extends far beyond Khao San Road. Authorities have identified more than 1,000 entertainment-style businesses across Bangkok. Many operate in areas affected by entertainment zoning and licensing requirements. Consequently, the proposed reforms are being examined against a much wider regulatory problem.

Officials are considering how qualifying establishments could operate under revised arrangements while meeting safety requirements. A 17-point safety checklist forms part of the proposed assessment process. Businesses seeking to benefit from later opening hours would face scrutiny against those standards. In addition, authorities are examining licensing conditions affecting entertainment establishments outside designated zones.

The government has given participating agencies 15 days to develop further proposals. Those discussions will determine the next stage of the proposed Khao San–Rambuttri Sandbox. For the moment, existing restrictions remain in place. Meanwhile, investigations into suspected police corruption continue alongside the licensing review.

The dispute has brought together senior government officials, Bangkok municipal authorities and Metropolitan Police commanders. Their discussions cover opening hours, entertainment licences, safety controls and enforcement practices. The proposed sandbox is intended to establish new operating arrangements for qualifying businesses. However, the plan remains under development following Friday’s meeting.

Halloween crowds converge on Khao San Road amid licensing crackdown and expanded police operation

The timing places Halloween directly alongside a major examination of Bangkok’s nightlife industry. Khao San Road is hosting tens of thousands of visitors while its businesses face licensing scrutiny. Furthermore, the corruption investigation has placed police enforcement practices under examination. The controversy extends to entertainment establishments elsewhere in the capital.

Against that background, Saturday’s security operation brought the Tourist Police commissioner personally onto Khao San Road. His deployment assembled 95 officers and volunteers from four participating groups. Their duties cover crime prevention, public order, tourist assistance and contact with local businesses. The mobilisation also places Chana Songkhram Police Station at the centre of the local operation.

The national Halloween advisory adds warnings about theft, suspicious drinks, fire hazards and dangerous driving. In addition, the Six Ghosts of Fraud campaign targets financial scams involving transport, shopping and nightlife services. These measures operate alongside the Tourist Police’s direct engagement with visitors on Khao San Road.

Organisers expect the two-night festival to attract 60,000 visitors and generate spending exceeding ฿200 million. Nearly ฿1 million in competition prizes forms part of an event costing more than ฿5 million. The celebrations include international tourists, street performances, horror displays and elaborate costumes.

Tourist Police maintain 95-strong Halloween security operation as nightlife licensing dispute continues

Yet the festivities are taking place during a major licensing dispute and continuing investigations into suspected police corruption. Senior officials have begun examining new arrangements for the district’s entertainment businesses. Meanwhile, existing operating restrictions remain in force as agencies prepare their proposals.

For Saturday night’s celebrations, the immediate police priority is maintaining order and protecting visitors. Phongsayam has personally inspected Khao San Road and directed officers to work closely with tourists and operators. The 95-strong contingent has been mobilised for security and public assistance duties throughout the festivities.

The Tourist Police have also confirmed that assistance remains available around the clock. Their 1155 hotline operates continuously, while national police emergencies can be reported through 191. With 30,000 visitors expected on Saturday evening, Khao San Road remains the centre of Bangkok’s Halloween celebrations.

曼谷旅游警察周六启动了一项大规模的万圣节安保行动，预计将有6万名狂欢者涌入考山路。旅游警察局长蓬萨亚姆·米坎通中将亲自率领95名警力部署，以保护游客并维护秩序。与此同时，警方警告民众注意盗窃、可疑饮品、危险人群以及六种常见的旅游骗局。组织者预计，为期两晚的庆祝活动总消费将超过2亿泰铢。然而，此次庆祝活动正值警方反腐调查、午夜查处以及一场激烈的许可证纠纷之际。在接受调查的30多家场所中，只有4家持有合法的娱乐许可证，而官员们正在审查影响曼谷1000多家夜生活和娱乐场所的改革方案。

曼谷旅游警察周六启动了一项大规模的万圣节安保行动，在考山路部署了95名警员和志愿者。预计为期两晚的万圣节活动将吸引多达6万名狂欢者，组织者预测消费额将超过2亿泰铢。

旅游警察总监蓬萨扬·米坎通中将亲自率队视察了著名的夜生活区。与此​​同时，国家警察就盗窃、可疑饮品、旅游诈骗和人群聚集等问题发布了紧急警告。

此次行动正值警方对腐败行为展开调查、午夜查封行动以及娱乐场所牌照之争愈演愈烈之际。

旅游警察局长率领95人万圣节巡逻队巡查拥挤的考山路

安全行动于 10 月 31 日星期六在 Chana Songkhram 警察局外展开。Phongsayam 在晚间庆祝活动前召集了高级指挥官和官员。

与他并肩作战的是旅游警察第一分队指挥官苏拉蓬·泰普拉瑟特少将。其他高级警官也参与了此次动员，此次动员汇集了四个独立的安全和公共援助小组。

此次部署包括40名旅游警察和30名来自查那颂堪警察局的警员。此外，帕那空县派出了10名市政警员，另有15名旅游警察志愿者组成了完整的队伍。

这支联合部队的任务是预防犯罪、维护公共秩序和为游客提供帮助。其职责范围还包括该拥挤区域内的居民、娱乐场所和商户。

会议结束后，蓬萨亚姆亲自带领团队视察了考山路。他会见了外国游客、泰国游客、商户和娱乐场所工作人员。视察期间，他询问了经营者关于万圣节庆祝活动的状况和氛围，并了解了旅游活动和商户面临的挑战。

旅游警察奉命加强巡逻，并扩大对游客和企业的直接援助。

警员接到指示，要与访客保持直接联系，并迅速响应求助请求。特别是，Phongsayam 指示人员要采取积极主动的方式，而不是被动等待事件发生。

他们还被指示要随时为游客和公众提供服务。此次部署将高级旅游警察指挥官直接派驻到曼谷最繁华的夜生活区之一。

此次行动遵循泰国皇家警察2027财年的犯罪预防政策。该政策优先考虑打击犯罪、提供公共援助以及与当地社区更紧密地合作。

为此，警员需直接与商家和居民合作。旅游警察还将两项既有的公共援助计划纳入其行动之中。

第一项是“团结一心，共创安全旅游”，旨在促进安保工作的协调开展。第二项是“您的第一朋友”，鼓励​​游客在需要帮助时直接联系警员。这两项计划都是旅游警察更广泛的游客保护战略的一部分。他们的紧急援助热线1155全天24小时开通。

考山路严阵以待，迎接6万名万圣节狂欢者，警方就犯罪问题向全国发出警告。

此次动员恰逢考山路商业协会举办的大型万圣节庆祝活动。这场名为“一个万圣节：夜之生物”的为期两晚的节日于10月30日星期五拉开帷幕，并将持续到星期六，预计每晚将吸引约3万名游客。因此，组织者预计整个周末的总参与人数将达到6万人。

协会主席桑加·鲁昂瓦塔纳库尔表示，主办方已为此次庆祝活动投入超过500万泰铢。活动内容包括精心设计的恐怖装置、街头表演、游行和大型服装比赛。其中近100万泰铢用于比赛奖金。此外，主办方还聘请了美国专家协助制作万圣节装饰。

预计此次活动将吸引大量国际游客以及泰国本土游客。主办方预计每晚消费额将超过1亿泰铢，两晚累计消费额预计将超过2亿泰铢。以上数据均为主办方预测，并非实际到场人数或收入。

与此同时，泰国皇家警察于周六发布了全国范围的万圣节安全警示​​。泰国皇家警察副发言人布尼亚努奇·蓬吉斯瓦拉南中校宣布了这一警告。她指出，大型公共集会是犯罪分子的潜在目标。该警示特别强调了盗窃、可疑饮品、人群聚集危险和交通事故等问题。

旅游警察发起万圣节六大骗局防范行动，警告民众警惕可疑饮品、盗窃和火灾。

警方敦促游客在人流密集的娱乐场所活动时保管好个人物品。他们还建议不要独自前往不熟悉的区域。尤其要注意陌生人提供的或无人看管的饮料。警方提醒参加万圣节庆祝活动的人们，要对可疑饮料保持警惕。

另一项警告针对的是拥挤场所内的火灾和烟雾。警方指示游客立即离开危险区域，不要停留拍摄视频。同样，警方也鼓励团体在进入大型集会场所前约定集合地点。这样可以分隔人群，以便在人群阻碍联系时，朋友们可以重新集合。

道路安全是警方公告的另一部分。警方警告民众切勿酒后驾车，并鼓励使用公共交通工具。此外，警方还专门为参加万圣节庆祝活动的外国游客发布了视频指导。全国警察紧急求助热线仍为191，旅游警察的联系电话为1155。

另一方面，旅游警察总监蓬萨亚姆发起了一项万圣节宣传活动，旨在打击六种常见的旅游诈骗手段。这项名为“六大诈骗幽灵”的活动，利用万圣节的意象来揭露常见的犯罪行为。宣传内容涵盖交通、旅游景点、租赁服务、餐饮、夜生活场所和零售商店。活动敦促外国游客在付款前仔细核对价格和相关条款。

旅游警察万圣节诈骗警告：出租车乱收费、夜生活场所收费和租车纠纷等问题成为打击目标

第一条警告针对出租车和公共交通过度收费问题。例如，警察司机拒不打表，以及运营商故意标价过高或收费过高。第二条警告针对的是诈骗分子，他们谎称热门旅游景点关闭，以此误导游客前往其他目的地或商家。

第三类是租赁纠纷，特别是涉及船只和摩托艇的纠纷。警方指出，主要问题包括有争议的损坏索赔和不明确的租赁合同。第四类警告涉及餐馆和服务提供商隐瞒价格，以及在顾客接受服务后收取意外费用。

第五类重点关注夜生活场所。警方警告称，娱乐场所可能存在未公开的入场费、酒水价格和其他额外收费。第六类则针对宝石和服装定制领域的诈骗。这些诈骗包括虚假宣传、高价商品推销以及退款纠纷。

蓬萨亚姆敦促游客在付款前务必确认价格和合同条款。此次宣传活动是泰国旅游警察在全国范围内开展的万圣节安保行动的一部分，尤其关注针对国际游客的金融诈骗。遇到困难的游客可随时拨打1155热线。

万圣节期间，曼谷考山路附近实施交通管制，身着鬼脸的旅游警察迎接熙熙攘攘的人群。

值得注意的是，一些旅游警察在考山路执勤时，以不同寻常的装扮亮相万圣节。泰叻新闻周六发布的视频显示，一些警察化着鬼脸妆容迎接游客。他们一边为游客提供帮助，一边融入节日气氛。他们的装扮也成为庆祝活动期间可见的警力部署的一部分。

录像显示，旅游警察在娱乐区直接与游客互动。他们的行动与由蓬萨亚姆及其高级指挥官领导的大规模安保行动相配合。警员们还被指示在整个节庆活动期间与娱乐场所经营者保持联系。此次联合行动汇集了当地警方、市政当局和志愿者，共同维护治安。

周六，曼谷市中心其他地区也实施了大范围的交通管制措施。这些措施与大皇宫和拉差丹农大道附近的皇家仪式彩排有关。这两个区域都靠近考山路夜生活区。总共有16条道路受到管制，并指定了23条替代路线。

交通管制措施涵盖上午和下午时段，预计晚间交通管制将持续到晚上7点30分左右。因此，前往参加万圣节庆祝活动的驾车人士可能会遇到进入历史中心的困难。警方建议司机和出租车乘客考虑其他路线。交通警察热线1197仍可提供咨询服务。

考山夜生活丑闻持续发酵，部长们正努力应对腐败和普遍存在的违规许可问题。

万圣节行动正值考山路娱乐业深陷争议之际。该地区已成为警方涉嫌腐败和非法支付的调查焦点。与此同时，午夜关门限制加剧了娱乐场所许可证方面的争议。经营者们正力促修改夜生活场所的相关法规。

10月30日星期五，总理府部长帕拉东·普里萨纳南塔库尔在曼谷警察局总部主持召开了一次高级别会议。曼谷市长查查特·西提蓬和曼谷警察局局长暹·汶颂中将出席了会议。会议讨论了拟议的夜生活管理条例变更，这些变更将影响考山路及其附近的兰布特里路。

会谈的核心是拟议中的考山路-兰布特里沙盒计划。该计划可能允许符合条件的娱乐场所延长营业时间。然而，此次讨论是在对夜生活场所与警务人员之间涉嫌非法支付的案件进行调查之后展开的。这场腐败丑闻再次引发了人们对许可证发放和执法工作的关注。

最近的一次检查揭露了许可证发放问题的严重性。在接受调查的30多家场所中，只有4家持有合法的娱乐许可证。调查结果显示，大多数受访场所都缺乏必要的授权。此外，调查结果还对现行的夜生活区以外娱乐场所的管理规定提出了质疑。

曼谷超过1000家场所面临审查，官员们正在考虑新的安全规则和推迟开放时间。

问题远不止考山路一带。当局已在曼谷查明超过1000家娱乐场所。其中许多场所位于受娱乐场所分区和许可证要求约束的区域。因此，拟议的改革方案需要从更广泛的监管问题角度进行审视。

官员们正在考虑符合条件的场所如何在修订后的安排下运营，同时满足安全要求。拟议的评估流程包含一份17项安全检查清单。希望延长营业时间的商家将面临这些标准的审查。此外，当局还在审查影响指定区域外娱乐场所的许可条件。

政府已给予参与机构15天时间制定进一步方案。这些讨论将决定拟议的考山-兰布特里沙盒项目的下一阶段。目前，现有限制措施仍然有效。与此同时，对涉嫌警察腐败的调查仍在进行，许可审查工作也在同步进行。

这场争议促使政府高级官员、曼谷市政府官员和曼谷警察局指挥官齐聚一堂。他们的讨论涵盖营业时间、娱乐场所许可证、安全管控和执法措施等内容。拟议的“沙盒”计划旨在为符合条件的企业建立新的运营模式。然而，在周五的会议之后，该计划仍在制定中。

万圣节期间，考山路人潮涌动，与此同时，警方加大了许可证查缴力度，并扩大了行动范围。

万圣节恰逢曼谷夜生活行业面临重大审查之际。考山路迎来数万游客，而沿街商户却面临执照审查。此外，反腐调查也使警方执法行为受到质疑。这场争议还蔓延至曼谷其他地区的娱乐场所。

在此背景下，周六的安保行动中，旅游警察局长亲自前往考山路。他召集了来自四个参与团体的95名警员和志愿者。他们的职责包括预防犯罪、维护公共秩序、为游客提供帮助以及与当地商家联络。此次行动也使查纳颂堪警察局成为当地行动的中心。

全国万圣节安全警示​​新增了关于盗窃、可疑饮品、火灾隐患和危险驾驶的警告。此外，“六大诈骗幽灵”行动旨在打击涉及交通、购物和夜生活服务的金融诈骗。这些措施与旅游警察在考山路上与游客的直接沟通同步进行。

主办方预计，为期两晚的节日将吸引6万名游客，消费额超过2亿泰铢。活动总成本超过500万泰铢，其中包括近100万泰铢的比赛奖金。庆祝活动包括国际游客、街头表演、恐怖秀和精美服饰。

旅游警察维持95人警力的万圣节安保行动，夜生活许可证纠纷持续发酵

然而，这些庆祝活动正值一场重大的许可证纠纷和对涉嫌警察腐败的持续调查期间举行。高级官员已开始研究该地区娱乐企业的新安排。与此同时，在各机构准备提案期间，现有的运营限制仍然有效。

周六晚的庆祝活动中，警方首要任务是维护秩序和保护游客安全。蓬萨亚姆警长亲自视察了考山路，并指示警员与游客和经营者密切合作。一支由95人组成的队伍已部署到位，将在整个庆祝活动期间负责安保和公共服务工作。

旅游警察也已确认，他们全天候提供援助服务。他们的1155热线24小时开通，而国家警察紧急情况可拨打191报告。预计周六晚将有3万名游客涌入考山路，这里仍然是曼谷万圣节庆祝活动的中心。
