Notorious Online Deception Complex Associated with Chinese Underworld Targeted

The Burmese military announces it has seized a key the most infamous fraud complexes on the frontier with Thai territory, as it regains important land previously lost in the continuing domestic strife.

KK Park, south of the border town of Myawaddy, has been associated with online fraud, money laundering and human trafficking for the past five years.

Countless people were lured to the compound with promises of well-paid employment, and then compelled to operate sophisticated frauds, taking billions of dollars from victims across the planet.

The junta, historically compromised by its associations to the deception business, now says it has taken the facility as it increases control around Myawaddy, the key commercial route to Thailand.

In recent weeks, the military has driven back rebels in multiple parts of Myanmar, seeking to increase the amount of territories where it can organize a scheduled poll, commencing in December.

It currently hasn't mastered significant territories of the country, which has been fragmented by fighting since a armed takeover in February 2021.

The election has been disregarded as a fraud by anti-junta elements who have sworn to obstruct it in regions they hold.

KK Park commenced with a rental contract in early 2020 to construct an industrial park between the ethnic organization (KNU), the rebel faction which dominates much of this area, and a unfamiliar HK listed corporation, Huanya International.

Researchers suspect there are relationships between Huanya and a notable China-based underworld individual Wan Kuok Koi, more commonly called Broken Tooth, who has since backed other deception centers on the frontier.

The complex developed swiftly, and is clearly observable from the Thailand territory of the border.

Those who succeeded to get away from it recount a violent environment imposed on the thousands, numerous from continental African countries, who were confined there, compelled to labor excessive periods, with torture and physical violence administered on those who did not manage to achieve targets.

A declaration by the military's official media said its troops had "liberated" KK Park, freeing in excess of 2,000 employees there and confiscating 30 of Elon Musk's Starlink internet equipment – widely used by scam centers on the Myanmar-Thai frontier for internet functions.

The statement blamed what it termed the "terrorist" Karen National Union and volunteer resistance groups, which have been fighting the junta since the overthrow, for unlawfully controlling the territory.

The regime's declaration to have closed this notorious scam facility is very likely aimed at its main backer, China.

Beijing has been pressing the military and the Thai authorities to take additional measures to stop the unlawful operations managed by Asian organizations on their common boundary.

In previous months many of Asian employees were extracted of fraud complexes and transported on chartered planes back to China, after Thai authorities eliminated availability to power and fuel resources.

But KK Park is only one of at least 30 analogous complexes positioned on the boundary.

A large portion of these are under the control of ethnic Karen paramilitary forces associated to the regime, and many are presently operating, with numerous individuals running scams inside them.

In actuality, the support of these militia groups has been essential in helping the armed forces repel the KNU and other resistance groups from land they took control of over the previous 24 months.

The military now controls nearly all of the highway linking Myawaddy to the other parts of Myanmar, a target the junta established before it organizes the opening round of the poll in December.

It has taken Lay Kay Kaw, a modern community founded for the KNU with Asian funding in 2015, a era when there had been hopes for enduring peace in the territory following a nationwide peace agreement.

That represents a more important defeat to the KNU than the seizure of KK Park, from which it did get some revenue, but where the bulk of the monetary benefits were directed to regime-supporting paramilitary forces.

A well-placed source has revealed that scam work is persisting in KK Park, and that it is possible the military took control of only part of the extensive complex.

The insider also believes Beijing is giving the Myanmar junta inventories of Asian persons it seeks taken from the scam compounds, and transported back to stand trial in China, which may clarify why KK Park was targeted.
