Thailand-China-Myanmar Join Forces to Smash Call Center Gangs by Demolishing KK Park and Chwe Kokko Buildings

A historic crackdown operation "Thailand-China-Myanmar" join hands to tackle gray border areas by demolishing the scammer gang's command buildings "KK Park" and "Chwe Kokko" down to rubble

On 15 December 2025 GMT+7, the Royal Thai Police, through the Anti-Cyber Scam Center (ACSC) led by Pol. Lt. Gen. Jiraphop Phuridej, Assistant Commissioner of Police and Deputy Director of the Police Cyber Task Force, along with Mr. Liu Zhongyi, Assistant Minister of Public Security of the People's Republic of China, and their delegations, traveled to Mae Sot District, Tak Province, to join forces with Myanmar authorities in the largest crackdown on transnational crime to date.

They released images showing the demolition of the scammer lairs—luxury buildings reduced to ruins. A key element of this cooperation was Myanmar security officials guiding Thai and Chinese teams to inspect two primary target sites: KK Park and Chwe Kokko, the main headquarters of call center gangs defrauding people worldwide.

Field inspections revealed that the tall buildings and offices once serving as hideouts for scammers have been permanently demolished. Now only empty spaces and ruins remain, confirming the serious joint effort to uproot these operations and deny any place for scam bases in the future. This disrupted the Chinese gang networks and their scammer employees, preventing them from defrauding people in multiple countries any longer.

Later at 14:20 GMT+7, at the conference room of the Second Friendship Bridge on the Myanmar side, a trilateral meeting took place among Pol. Lt. Gen. Jiraphop Phuridej and his Thai delegation, Major General Min Htike Myo, Deputy Commander of Myanmar Police, and his team, as well as Mr. Liu Zhongyi and his Chinese delegation. They concluded decisive measures whereby Thailand will use the Anti Cyber Scam Center (ACSC) as the central hub for information exchange among the countries.

Additionally, they proposed establishing a Joint Task Force to exchange information and evidence to expand the network crackdown within 24 hours. The emphasis was on the principle that crime knows no borders, so suppression must be borderless and collaborative without restrictions, acting swiftly. They will continue coordinated efforts to cut off essential resources like electricity and internet signals used by criminals in border areas.

They also agreed to cooperate in facilitating and streamlining procedures for repatriating foreign nationals who fled Myanmar, ensuring swift processes, reducing the burden on Thai officials, and safeguarding both the foreigners and all parties involved.

As a result of demolishing the buildings and bases, many Chinese scammers attempting to flee KK Park and Chwe Kokko were arrested by Myanmar authorities. Mr. Liu Zhongyi and his team inspected detention facilities in Myawaddy city, currently full of Chinese suspects held pending extradition to face legal proceedings in the People's Republic of China. This marks the end of the transnational scam networks that have long troubled Thai citizens and people worldwide.

However, this international cooperation sends a clear warning that border areas will no longer be safe zones for criminals, as the three countries have joined forces to produce concrete results.
