Recently, Ta Kung Pao reporters went deep into the Thai-Myanmar border to investigate the gathering place of telecom fraud terrorists, attracting high attention from all walks of life.
Finally, the state has taken action!
On January 15, the Ministry of Public Security issued a document with a very firm attitude:
"The Ministry of Public Security attaches great importance to this, immediately deploying police forces across the country to comprehensively review the situations of Chinese citizens missing or trapped abroad, and to fully carry out investigative work. With the support and assistance of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and our embassies and consulates abroad, we are fully coordinating the rescue of the trapped personnel."
"The police will continue to maintain a tough and high-pressure stance against cross-border telecom network fraud crimes, especially in new fraud hotspots like Myawaddy in Myanmar, further strengthening international law enforcement cooperation and jointly launching crackdown operations with police forces of relevant countries, fully destroying overseas telecom fraud dens, and coordinating the rescue of trapped personnel, effectively safeguarding the safety of people's lives and property and their legitimate rights and interests."
This document specifically mentioned Myawaddy.
After all, the telecom fraud dens in northern Myanmar have been cleared, and now it's Myawaddy's turn.
Moreover, on January 16, in Beijing.
During a meeting with envoys from the 10 ASEAN countries in China, Wang Yi, a member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Minister of Foreign Affairs, made a public statement:
"Recently, a series of malicious cases of online gambling and telecom fraud have occurred continuously along the Thai-Myanmar border, seriously threatening the safety of Chinese citizens."
He clearly stated: "Relevant countries must take responsibility, adopt strong measures, resolutely crack down on online gambling and telecom fraud, safeguard the safety of people's lives and property, and never allow criminals to escape justice!"
In just a few words, his statement was powerful and resonant.
The Chinese Ministry of Public Security released details of the fraud case involving Wang (a mainland actor Wang Xing), revealing that he was trafficked to multiple telecom fraud parks.
Currently, Wang, Sun, Yang, Wu, Lin, Xu, and others have been rescued and safely returned to the country.
While rescuing the missing and trapped personnel, the police are also advancing the investigation of the case, tracing and uncovering a criminal group specializing in cross-border human trafficking hidden in Myawaddy, Myanmar.
Currently, the Chinese and Thai police have jointly arrested 12 domestic and foreign criminal suspects, and the investigation and arrest of other suspects are ongoing.
The Ministry of Public Security sternly stated: It will continue to maintain a tough and high-pressure stance against cross-border telecom network fraud crimes, keep a close watch, relentlessly pursue, deeply advance special crackdown operations, enhance international law enforcement cooperation, fully destroy overseas telecom fraud dens, and arrest criminal groups
'financiers' and key members, fully coordinating the rescue of trapped personnel.
This statement and action fully demonstrate the firm determination to crack down on telecom fraud and ensure the safety of nationals, and also signify the impending doom for telecom fraudsters.
Myawaddy, it seems, is not far from being wiped out.
