THE government is investigating and identifying foreign nationals who have been residing illegally in border areas and have been involved in criminal activities, including online gambling and online fraud, and is systematically deporting them to their respective countries in accordance with relevant laws and procedures.
In this
process, a further 16 foreign nationals were identified and detained after
having entered sites in and around Myawaddy Township, Kayin State, through
illegal routes via Thailand and some neighbouring countries. They included nine
Chinese nationals, three Sri Lankan nationals, two Ethiopian nationals, one
Vietnamese national and one Malaysian national. The individuals were screened
as part of deportation procedures.
In order to
expedite their repatriation to their respective countries, departmental joint
task forces are currently collecting the necessary personal information and
records. These activities were inspected by the Chairman of the Myawaddy
District Administration and Management Committee and District Administrator U
Kaung San Lin, together with responsible officials, who also coordinated and
facilitated the required measures.
The
government is actively cooperating with neighbouring and regional countries, as
well as international organizations, to identify and arrest those involved in
online scam centre operations and the foreign nationals masterminding such
activities, and to take effective and severe legal action against them. At the
same time, effective coordination is being carried out to ensure the prompt
repatriation of foreign nationals who are in distress for various reasons and
those who have been trafficked.
