Recently, there had been an intensification of criminal acts in Myanmar, particularly serious crimes involving murder, kidnapping and trafficking in persons, and the threat had spread to neighbouring countries. The top police departments of China, Myanmar and Thailand recently convened a major tripartite meeting in Bangkok to discuss joint efforts to combat transnational crimes such as human trafficking and telecommunications fraud. However, the conference's decisions were not limited to cooperation agreements on paper, but also extended to the real world, with profound implications for an area called Myawaddy.
Myawaddy, a city in the southeastern state of Karen State, appears to be a rich land, with Myanmar's second-largest port, across the river from Thailand's Mae Sot Special Zone. However, it hides darkness and is the hardest hit area for car smuggling, arms trade, drug trading and other areas in Myanmar, and is also home to many telecom fraud gangs, the most notorious of which is the "KK Park".
Recently, a Chinese boss, Mr. Shin, fell into danger in Myawaddy. He was tricked into jumping from the stairs and breaking his leg, but eventually escaped and found refuge under a local so-called "general".
The "general", who controlled 60 soldiers and was considered a lord of one side, eventually accepted Mr. Shin's 80,000 yuan, released him, and made him flee to Thailand.
However, this is not the only evil deed of Myawaddy. Myanmar's anti-fraud internet celebrity Zhao Haibo, who has exposed crime in the area, pointed out that the vast majority of Chinese who come to Myanmar are young people who are vulnerable to fraud syndicates because of their quest to get rich quick. Zhao Haibo once denounced the victims in the live broadcast room, comparing them to dogs, suggesting that they were treated as cash cows.
So why do these people, knowing that crime is rampant in Myanmar, venture to this place?
The answer is simple, they aspire to get rich. In Myawaddy, though, criminal gangs are greedy beyond imagination. Here, give them 50,000 yuan, and they will ask for 100,000 yuan; Give them 100,000 yuan and they will ask for 200,000 yuan. They won't rest until you lose everything and they won't release you eventually. The criminals here believe in the slogan: "I want people and money!" ”
If you are lucky enough to escape Myawaddy and prepare to return home, you will inevitably cross northern Burma, but there are no less dangers there, except that you have escaped from one wolf's den to another. Recently, four university students in Hefei disappeared after being scammed in Myanmar, and their families and schools desperately turned to the Internet.
The incident was the focus of national and international attention, and pressure on both the media and the Chinese government increased, and the four university students were finally rescued on March 20.
Singaporean media praised China, Myanmar and Thailand for joining forces to combat criminal syndicates based in Myawaddy and achieving remarkable results. However, it is deeply regrettable that five staff members have unfortunately lost their lives in this operation. According to the plan of the meeting, the Burmese government army was the first to dispatch, and the special operations forces outflanked the Myawaddy campus and engaged in fierce battles with local warlords. At present, some parks have been breached, and some leaders of criminal gangs have been arrested and are being interrogated, but other warlords are still resisting stubbornly.
The strike came not only from the Myanmar military, but also with the support of the international community. This means not only cracking down on and arresting the managers of criminal areas, but also rescuing all victims. Finally, this series of events reminds us that there is no such thing as a high-paying paradise in either northern Myanmar or Myawaddy. Go to these places and you will only become a lamb to be slaughtered. So don't go, don't go, don't go!
In this crime-ridden area, lives and property are at stake. Myanmar's Myawaddy is known for its sinister world of crime, but is equally present in other similar regions around the globe.
These dark corners hide all sorts of evil deeds such as drug dealing, human trafficking, telecom fraud, etc., attracting people who aspire to get rich easily, however, they will only end up falling into the abyss.
At the same time, the efforts of the Government of Myanmar and the international community have yielded initial results in combating those criminal phenomena, but they are only the beginning. More collaboration and global action are needed to completely eliminate these criminal gangs. Whether it is China, Myanmar or Thailand, more resolute measures need to be taken to completely eradicate the root causes of these evil forces to ensure that people can live in a safer and more just society.
In addition, individuals and families need to be vigilant against possible temptations and pitfalls around them. Greed and the desire to get rich quick are human weaknesses, but we must learn to recognize what is the legal, safe way to do and not fall into the trap of crime. In the information age, we have more resources and channels to access information and understand the risks and dangers around the world. Therefore, it is our responsibility to educate ourselves and those around us not to blindly pursue wealth, but to pursue justice and security.
Finally, we must remember that we need to support and assist those who have already been victimized.
Criminal gangs not only deprive them of their property, but may also rob them of their dignity and freedom. We, as part of society, should reach out to help those victims re-establish their lives and bring them out of the shadow of crime and reintegrate into society.
In conclusion, the Myawaddy incident in Myanmar is deeply shocking, but it is also a reminder of the global crime problem. We must unite and act resolutely to fight criminal gangs, protect the innocent and create a more just and secure world. No matter where we are, we must always be vigilant, refuse to participate in any illegal activities, stick to the right path, and contribute our own strength to the harmony and progress of society.
