Nearly 2,000 Chinese citizens who were working in the online gambling and online scams (Zhapian) were arrested by the State Administration Council and handed over to the Chinese government on 21st November 2023 reportedly. 

Of them, 1,816 people are men and 43 are women and a total of 1,859 people were handed over to the Chinese government.

The Chinese government is negotiating with the SAC to arrest the Chinese employers and employees doing business of online scams and hand over them to China.

However, due to the fact that no effective measures were taken, shouting slogans that they would suppress those working in online scams and eradicate dictatorship, the Three Brotherhood Alliance (the MNDAA, the TNLA and the AA) launched the Operation-1027.

The operation is attacking the Tatmadaw camps in Mong Ko, Chin Shwe Haw, Theinni, Naunghkio, Namkham, Phaung Sai, Kyukote (Pang Sai) and has captured some towns.

China was behind the operation or China allowed the Three Brotherhood Alliance to launch the operation, which domestic politicians have believed. After that, the SAC

started cracking down on online gambling businesses and the culprits were handed over to China only when the military pressure has increased, they pointed out.

The SAC has already handed over 3,918 Chinese citizen including 185 women who were working in online scams to China from 31st October to 21st November 2023.
