Anti-scam task force dismantles illegal structures in Shwe Kokko and KK Park



The Government of Myanmar is conducting large-scale operations through a joint task force, comprising security personnel, administrative bodies, and local authorities, to clear illegal buildings in the Shwe Kokko and KK Park areas. These regions are known to have the highest concentrations of online scams and gambling operations. The mission involves the systematic demolition of illegal structures and the destruction of seized equipment used in these criminal activities.

As part of the ongoing crackdown, further demolitions were carried out yesterday in Section 3 of the Myawady-Maethawtalay (KK Park) area. The task force dismantled 12 additional illegal structures, including two three-storey buildings, nine two-storey buildings, and one single-storey building. To date, 478 out of a total of 635 illegal buildings identified in the KK Park area have been systematically demolished.

Since 8 December, joint teams have also been conducting search and clearance operations in and around Myawady, Kayin State. These efforts aim to prevent illegal foreign nationals from residing in the area and to dismantle the infrastructure required for online scams. Yesterday, inspections were conducted on a further 17 illegal buildings, consisting of two four-storey, three three-storey, five two-storey, and seven single-storey structures.

Yesterday, in the Shwe Kokko and KK Park areas of Myawady Township, authorities systematically burned the items used in online scams and gambling to ensure they could not be repurposed or reused.

The government has designated the suppression of online scams and gambling as a national duty. Reports indicate that the authorities will continue to coordinate with both domestic forces and the governments of neighbouring countries to ensure that such illegal activities cannot gain a foothold anywhere within Myanmar.
