A complex in Myanmar near the Thai border
The opposition armed group, the Democratic Buddhist Karen Army (DBKA), in Myanmar has issued a statement demanding that Chinese nationals operating casino and food businesses in Phaya Thonezu town in Kayin (formerly Karen) state leave by February 28.
Myanmar's Eleven Media Group news site cited a statement saying that the Thai government had cut off electricity and fuel in the town to deal with online fraud, causing economic losses to local residents.
Therefore, to reduce the impact on the people and prevent online fraud groups from operating in Phaya Thonezu, DBKA issued a notice forcing Chinese nationals operating illegal activities in the casino and food sectors in the town to leave.
DBKA warned that violators would face legal consequences, and said it would increase patrols and take other measures to prevent Chinese from entering areas controlled by the armed group.
According to the Bangkok Post , DBKA previously issued another statement saying the group would take measures to help residents, after Thailand cut off electricity, fuel and internet supplies to the town.
The statement also stressed the importance of building trust with the Thai government, in the hope that Bangkok will restore electricity and fuel supplies.
Thailand's suspension of electricity, fuel and internet supplies to some areas in Myanmar near the Thai border entered its sixth day today, February 10, leaving some towns without power.
However, the lights are still on at the buildings of the online fraud gangs, because they have their own generators.
Police Chief Paithoon Sriwilai in Sangkhla Buri district (Kanchanaburi province, Thailand) said on February 10 that a man named Samrit was arrested the day before, trying to smuggle 290 liters of diesel oil to Phaya Thonezu.
