Thai police raided a mansion in Chiang Mai worth over 40 million Thai baht, arresting 18 Chinese telecom fraud suspects. Eight of the suspects jumped from the second floor to escape and were injured. Police seized more than 20 computers and over 100 mobile phones. The fraud gang has been operating for about three months, paying each telecom fraudster a monthly salary of 10,000 to 20,000 yuan. The entire gang has now been arrested, with one suspect who escaped breaking his leg and being treated by Thai police.
So far, among the countries in Southeast Asia, Vietnam is the only one that does not have a large number of telecom fraud groups or many telecom fraud suspects, mainly because Vietnam has stricter regulations. It's fair to say that Vietnam is most similar to us in terms of managing telecom fraud. Vietnam still has certain standards in this regard. However, countries such as Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia, and Thailand have telecom fraud groups and many telecom fraud suspects to varying degrees, which is undeniable. Therefore, continued arrests are still needed.
Thailand has also taken many measures to arrest telecom fraud groups, but it is still insufficient. Once Thailand cracks down on telecom fraud groups, problems tend to arise. For example, when they arrested Cambodian businessman Fuguan'an, it triggered a war between Cambodia and Thailand. Of course, this was just one small reason, there are deeper reasons. Everyone knows the truth, who is the background of these Cambodian businessmen? Once they are arrested, the problems they reveal will be shocking.
The war between Cambodia and Thailand was ultimately a manifestation of accumulated tensions. Therefore, telecom fraud groups must continue to be strictly cracked down on, this is a fact. We should understand Thailand's situation, but to help Thailand deal with telecom fraud groups, we should enhance communication and send police forces to assist Thailand in handling the issue. All of these are necessary.
It can be said that these telecom fraud suspects will definitely be deported, but how they will be handled is still unclear at this time!
