Police are stepping up measures to protect foreign visitors as scam artists and criminals are back on the prowl now the country has reopened to overseas tourists.
Last Saturday, Thailand recorded 10 million foreign tourist arrivals for the year, with celebrations to welcome overseas visitors taking place at seven airports and two immigration checkpoints.
The Tourism and Sports Ministry organised an "Amazing Thailand 10 Million Celebrations" event to highlight the steady revival of the vital tourism industry after a Covid-induced downturn that lasted more than two years.
