Myawady continues demolishing online scam hubs

THE government is placing special emphasis on eradicating online scams and online gambling operations, which threaten the global socioeconomic environment and national security. To this end, it is conducting intensive operations in cooperation with neighbouring and regional countries to eliminate these illicit activities.

As part of these efforts, illegal buildings in the Shwe Kokko area of Myawady District, Kayin State, which had been widely used as bases for online scam and gambling operations, are being demolished permanently by joint teams comprising security forces, administrative bodies, and local authorities.

In this regard, another 13-storey building was demolished yesterday through a controlled explosion using explosives. Meanwhile, two 5-storey buildings are continuing to be systematically demolished using heavy machinery.

In the second phase of the Shwe Kokko area, 63 buildings remain to be demolished. These buildings, which were used for online scam and gambling operations, have been classified into different categories according to the appropriate demolition methods, such as buildings to be demolished using heavy machinery; buildings to be demolished through controlled explosions; and buildings located close to residential homes, which must be dismantled floor by floor using manual labour. The demolition work is continuing systematically according to these classifications.

As of yesterday, among the buildings designated for demolition using heavy machinery, the demolition of one five-storey building has reached 90 per cent completion, while another five-storey building has been 20 per cent demolished. In addition, one 13-storey building designated for demolition by controlled explosion was successfully brought down completely using explosives.

Relevant interdepartmental combined teams will continue systematically demolishing the remaining buildings used for online scam and gambling operations in the second phase of the Shwe Kokko area.

The government has designated the fight against online scams and online gambling as a matter of national responsibility. It is continuing these efforts with strong emphasis and coordination with domestic forces, as well as the governments of neighbouring countries.
