Shwe Kokko scam compounds flattened in wide-ranging crackdown

 

Treating the fight against online fraud and online gambling as a matter of national duty, the Government is systematically carrying out the complete demolition of illegal structures in the Shwe Kokko area to prevent them from ever being used again for illicit scam and gambling operations.

As part of these operations targeting the remaining illegal buildings in Shwe Kokko Phase II, heavy machinery has been deployed to dismantle key structures. The demolition of one five-story building has reached 90 per cent completion to date, while the demolition of another five-story building is currently 15 per cent complete.
Out of 63 targeted structures in Shwe Kokko Phase II, authorities have categorized the demolition methods based on building type and surrounding conditions: 25 buildings are slated for mechanical demolition with heavy machinery, four buildings for controlled implosion, and 34 buildings for manual, floor-by-floor dismantling due to their proximity to residential homes. Thus far, all four buildings designated for controlled implosion and one building designated for mechanical teardown have been fully demolished. The systematic demolition of the remaining 58 buildings will continue moving forward.

Recognizing online fraud and online gambling as serious threats to the global socioeconomic fabric and national security, the Government remains committed to cracking down on these operations in close coordination with neighbouring and regional countries to eradicate them once and for all.
