Myanmar

Myanmar is currently grappling with various challenges including fraudulent activities, military confrontations, and international refugee management. Notorious scam bases operating within the country have been targeted in a crackdown seen as cosmetic ahead of an ASEAN summit, aiming to appease world leaders while political ties with fraud networks persist. The Myanmar army has intensified its efforts against insurgents through relentless air strikes, reportedly receiving support from China. SpaceX has also severed Starlink services to over 2,500 scam devices used in Myanmar's fraudulent camps along the Thai border. Meanwhile, Thailand is allowing Myanmar refugees to work within its borders for the first time, addressing labor shortages and aid cuts affecting nearly 87,000 refugees who have been living in camps for decades. These developments highlight ongoing security, economic, and humanitarian issues facing Myanmar.
