Officials from the Japanese and Australian embassies visited Sanam Luang Wednesday to observe police operations in the area, as authorities deal with the massive crowds.
There are now eight checkpoints around Sanam Luang and 18 surveillance units.
The foreign delegations also handed out banana cake, butter cake and fruitcake to police and mourners.
“We have shared the sadness of Thai people over the passing of HM King Bhumibol Adulyadej,” Keisuke Hosaka, from the Japanese embassy, said.
