The Chinese and Myanmar leaders pledged closer cooperation against cross-border gambling, online scams and other criminal activities affecting the region.
China.- Chinese president Xi Jinping has urged Myanmar to continue strengthening its efforts against illegal online gambling, highlighting the issue during a meeting with Myanmar leader Min Aung Hlaing in Beijing.
Min Aung Hlaing said Myanmar would work closely with China to crack down on online gambling operations while enhancing security along the countries’ shared border.
The discussions are a result of China’s ongoing campaign against cross-border gambling and online scam networks that target Chinese citizens. Beijing has repeatedly warned about the risks associated with overseas gambling activities, including fraud, money laundering, human trafficking and other forms of organised crime.

The latest commitment from Myanmar comes as China continues to increase pressure on regional governments to dismantle illegal gambling and scam compounds operating in border areas, which have become a major focus of Beijing’s law enforcement and diplomatic agenda.
