Authorities have uncovered and detained five Chinese nationals involved in telecom fraud and related online criminal activities, and conducted verification procedures for deportation, according to official reports.
The government has been
systematically identifying and investigating foreign nationals who entered and
resided illegally in border areas and who participated in unlawful activities,
including online gambling and online scams. The authorities have transferred
those individuals to their respective countries in accordance with existing
laws and procedures.
In the latest case, the
five Chinese nationals were found to have entered through illegal routes after
transiting via neighbouring countries, including Thailand, and were located at
sites near Myawady Township in Kayin State. Officials completed initial screening
processes to facilitate deportation.
A joint departmental
team has been collecting personal data and records required for the prompt
repatriation of the detained foreign nationals. Member of the Myawady District
Administration and Management Committee Lt-Col San Shwe inspected the ongoing documentation
work and coordinated necessary measures.
From 30 January 2025 to
14 February 2026, a total of 14,205 foreign nationals who entered Myawady
Township illegally were detained. Authorities reported that verification
processes for all detainees have been completed. Of them, 13,117 were deported
and transferred to their respective countries via Thailand in line with legal
procedures, while the remaining 1,088 foreign nationals are ready for transfer
and are properly accommodated.
The government stated
that it continues to cooperate actively with neighbouring countries, regional
partners, and international organizations to identify, arrest, and take
effective action against individuals involved in online scam centre operations
and their foreign organisers. It also affirmed that foreign nationals facing
hardship or those who were victims of human trafficking are being coordinated
for swift repatriation.
