According to Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, the governments of Thailand and Cambodia are actively working to eradicate call center fraud sites.
She made the remarks at a conference on Friday with the steering committee to examine efforts to combat human trafficking, call center schemes, and drug trafficking.
The prime minister’s first official visit to the Army Headquarters in Bangkok was even a result of this visit.
Chief of the Defense Forces Gen Songwit Noonpakdee, Royal Thai Police inspector-general Pol Gen Thatchai Pitaneelaboot, as well as staff from the Office of the Narcotics Control Board, the Royal Thai Navy, and the Royal Thai Air Force were among the visitors.
Ms. Paetongtarn said she discussed the issue with Thai Prime Minister Hun Manet and that they agreed to work together after discussing how to combat call center criminals in Cambodia.
Cambodia has shown unwavering participation. Whatever kind of cooperation is required at the level of the working group, there is always a conversation going on and support is usually available, according to Ms. Paetongtarn.
She added that discussions have been held with the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission ( NBTC ) in order to address pending issues.
We want to totally eliminate this problem, despite the significant progress made in the contact center assault. Therefore, the private business will need more of its assistance,” she said.
The prime minister responded to questions about issues that Thai people are being defrauded from the Poi Pet place in Cambodia while the state simply has put in place strict regulations in the Tak province’s Thai-Myanmar border region. The prime minister said the state is taking proactive steps and has received favorable participation from both neighboring countries.
When we requested assistance from Cambodia, they said they were more eager to work with us and to engage with us.
They have been quite helpful, and we are now getting a lot of information about the causes of these issues and are actively working to resolve them, she continued.
When pressed on the slow development of the Poi Pet call center assault, Ms. Paetongtarn claimed that Thai citizens who had been repatriated were being processed for legal actions.
” We are working together on this issue, and there are no obstructions,” she said.
Critics claim that the government has delayed in responding because only about 100 of these companies have been rescued despite the involvement of dozens of Thai people in the fraud networks.
Over the past two days, Pol Gen Thatchai claimed the prime minister has assigned him to work with various organizations in Cambodia.
” We are currently undergoing conversations, and action will begin immediately. We will have to delay until the proper moment while the Vietnamese authorities are planning a crackdown, he said.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs ‘ Department of Information’s Director-General, Nikorndej Balankura, claimed the government is assisting foreigners who have been drawn to Myanmar’s con gangs.
7 372 international citizens had been helped as of Thursday, with 4 895 of them coming home via Thailand. Most were from China (3, 634), followed by Indonesia ( 653 ) and India ( 549 ).
