Phumtham Wechayachai, the deputy prime minister, is concerned about a potential disaster of foreigners leaving Myawaddy’s shuttered con centers.  ,
He stated on Tuesday that the state may try to encircle them until their home countries agreed to send them back. Particularly concerning was the unlawful entry through normal border crossings.
” The number of individuals is building up in Myawaddy. We are considering this because we are concerned about overcrowding]of facilities]. There are many healthy border crossings, according to Mr. Phumtham, but if those in charge cannot control this and leave them, it will become our trouble.
He was responding to rumors that thousands of people had been detained for screening in Myawaddy,  , which is directly contrary Mae Sot borders region in Thailand’s Tak state.
Mr. Phumtham claimed that the government was attempting to arrange for these immigrants ‘ quick relocation with international officials. If their home countries had requested their quick relocation, Thailand refused to accept them.
The Taiwanese authorities was among those cooperating, he said. But, coordinating with African countries with no offices in Thailand was hard.
Mr Phumtham, even defence secretary, said there were similar issues over the reduction of fraud centres based in Cambodia. Between Cambodia and Thailand, there were numerous biological bridges.
The deputy prime minister said,” I firmly believe that they will not be permitted to enter Thailand without the appropriate functions ‘ consent.”
He stated that while urging the government to stop the government from preventing call fraud centers operating from it, the authorities would continue to deny cross-border electricity, oil, and digital supply to Myanmar towns bordering Thailand.
