"I would like the general public to please show hospitality towards visitors coming to participate in the upcoming 35th ASEAN Summit," said Prawit, adding that the government has already declared Nov. 4-5 as public holidays to avoid road congestions in Bangkok and its vicinity.

Some 1,700 policemen and joint units will be guarding the summit venue, hotels, transportation routes, and related event venues in Bangkok and at the summit venue.
