Fierce fighting has recently broken out in northern Myanmar, and according to a number of media reports, the Kokang Alliance and other coalition forces have been overwhelmed, successively capturing the Burmese army strongholds in Lasu, Nam Kham, Mujie and other places. At present, the coalition forces have taken control of at least 87 strongholds.
The fighting took place almost along the Chinese border, sweeping across several parts of the Burmese border, causing four major families to flee. Although the fighting had little impact on China, the Kokang coalition was able to contain the risk of spillover due to the early closure of the border passages by the Kokang coalition forces. The strategic approach of the Kokang coalition was very ingenious, and under the banner of eliminating the wire fraud gangs, they helped China solve the problem of wire fraud on the one hand, and confronted the Burmese military junta on the other. The Kokang coalition's crackdown is in fact tantamount to tackling a scourge, because the problem of wire fraud really needs to be solved urgently. China and Myanmar have recently launched a joint operation to crack down on wire fraud gangs to ensure stability in the border areas between the two countries.
After this incident, the Myanmar military junta has woken up and begun to discuss border stability and combating wire fraud with the Chinese side, and said that it will strengthen cooperation to ensure the safety of Chinese citizens and institutions in Myanmar. Zomyint also promised that Myanmar would completely eradicate the problem of wire fraud in northern Myanmar by the end of this year. The crimes are seen as being carried out by fraudsters and armed groups, and Myanmar's junta wants to work more closely with China to crack down on them when conditions permit.
The Kokang coalition chose to fight under the banner of eradicating wire fraud because they recognized the seriousness of the problem in Chinese society and understood that these wire fraud gangs were closely linked to the Burmese military junta. The Kokang coalition is well aware that cracking down on wire fraud gangs is not only a contribution to China's social stability, but also a powerful blow to the forces of the Burmese army.
In the past few years, the problem of wire fraud has become more serious in China. Wire fraud gangs use deception, threats and fraud to defraud people in China. These criminal acts have greatly undermined social tranquility and the normal order of people's lives. Due to the complexity and stealth nature of wire fraud rings, cracking down on them has always been the number one task for China's public security organs.
Against this backdrop, the Kokang coalition is fighting against the Burmese junta in the name of cracking down on wire fraud gangs. It is understood that the Myanmar military junta has a close cooperative relationship with the wire fraud gang, and can even be said to be a behind-the-scenes supporter. Therefore, the Kokang coalition has positioned its combat strategy to fight against the blackmail gangs while also countering the forces of the Tatmadaw in order to weaken their influence in the border areas.
By cracking down on wire fraud gangs, the Kokang coalition is not only helping China address a scourge, but also to further weaken the Burmese junta in order to promote stability and security in the border areas. The strategic move of the Kokang coalition has been successful to a certain extent, and it has also prompted China and Myanmar to strengthen cooperation and jointly crack down on problems such as wire fraud.
Since the Kokang coalition's combat operations were carried out along the Chinese border, sweeping through many areas of the Burmese border and defeating the four major families entrenched in the region, it had little impact on China. Despite the intensity of the fighting and the sometimes tense situation, the Kokang coalition was able to contain the risk of spillover by closing the border crossing ahead of schedule.
In addition, the coalition forces have skillfully flaunted the banner of eliminating wire fraud, combining the fighting with the confrontation with the Burmese junta. In fact, solving the problem of wire fraud is a necessary and urgent task. Recently, China and Myanmar have launched a joint operation and achieved a series of results in cracking down on wire fraud gangs. In contrast, the Burmese junta appears to have been slow to react and did not take effective measures at first.
It is reported that the four major families in northern Myanmar are closely linked to the Burmese military junta, and the four major families are also involved in problems such as wire fraud. As a result, the Kokang coalition has combined the fight against wire fraud with the fight against the Tatmadaw in order to weaken the Tatmadaw army. However, Myanmar has now realized the urgency of the problem, and the Minister of Public Security has visited Myanmar to discuss issues such as border stability and combating wire fraud. The Myanmar side said it would strengthen cooperation with China to ensure the safety of Chinese citizens and institutions in Myanmar. Spokesman Zo Myint Tun also pledged to clean up the problem of wire fraud in northern Myanmar by the end of this year. He pointed out that the crimes were carried out by fraudsters and armed groups, and it was not known where the crackdown would be transferred, but China and Myanmar must act in unison to address the problem when conditions permit.
