On September 30, 2026, Supamas Issaraphakdi said she had directed OCPB to coordinate with government agencies and business networks to roll out the nine assistance measures. They cover tow‑truck provision via the 191 hotline in cooperation with the police and the Tow Truck Association of Thailand, free vehicle‑repair evaluations and genuine‑parts discounts through the Central Garage Insurance Association, and installment‑payment relief negotiated with car manufacturers. For debt relief, OCPB is working with the Bank of Thailand on principal‑payment postponement, interest reductions or pauses, and extended repayment periods. Insured vehicle claims will be handled with the Office of Insurance Commission (OIC) via hotline 1186, while rental‑car associations will waive initial damage fees and provide replacement vehicles. Home‑and‑appliance support includes free inspections, service discounts, extended warranties, and waived inspection or labor fees. Supamas urged businesses to disclose prices and conditions clearly and to report any unfair charges to OCPB through hotline 1166, the OCPB Connect app, the website www.ocpb.go.th, or provincial OCPB offices.
