The fraud party is distributed. There are more than four hundred armed guards in the militia.When the victim enters the park, his documents are taken away, and when he escapes and is caught, he is locked in a dark room. The bloody fingerprints on the wall are the traces of the beaten person's despair.
Fraud is open business, and in the dark there are officials. A group like the Liu family has sheltered thousands of fraud gangs, with more than 20,000 electronic fraudsters and more than 10 billion crimes.
Without legal constraints, they regard life as mustard, if If the performance does not meet the target, it will be electrocuted, beaten, some will be killed, then it will be thrown away.
In addition, in the park. There are also casinos and drug dens, which specialize in bleeding their victims out of money.
If you have no money, you can't make fraudulent calls. What should you do if you lose your value?
The flesh and blood on that person's body are also a good thing.
The United Nations 2023 report shows that Myanmar has 120,000 victims of human traffickingUNODC also noted that organ trafficking in Southeast Asia is on the rise.
Just like the 27-year-old White Russian woman Vera died after being deceived. Her family members Her organs were removed and burned.
However, everyone thinks northern Myanmar is the end of darkness, but does not know that there is a more terrifying place.
It was once a popular tourist destination, and now becomes a hub for human trafficking in Burma and the north, and even has never been. This place is Cambodia.
The Second Myanmar
According to statistics, In 2019, 23.6 million Chinese tourists went, and tourism supported 12% of the country's GDP.
But who could have imagined that the Turkish bus drivers who took tourists to the sights would later help the criminal group to catch up, and special foreigners set a trap.
For example, on the streets of Cambodia and on the net. 20,000 monthly translation fees.Advertising is all tempting.
As soon as someone got off the Phnom Penh Airport, he was picked up by two strong men into a black car. The passport was torn into pieces, locked in a small black house without windows, even crying was struck.
Previously, there was a Suzhou native Li Linpeng who didn't cooperate. First, he was hit in the back with a steel pipe. Later, he was smoked 200 ml of blood every day, and less than half a month fainted and became a "blood slave".
The U.S. State Department says that in 2024, Cambodia At least 100,000 people are still trapped in fraud dens.
In addition, there are more casinos in West Port than restaurants, in 2019 there are 91 licensed, underground is also countless, it can be said that as long as there is a house can become a casino.
There was a Guangdong boss who lost 800,000, tried to run but was broken his leg, and eventually was forced to cheat on his brother to "debit".

Of course, gambling drugs must be indispensable for Huang, Phnom Penh's red light district, One-third are girls aged 11 to 18, or 16,000.
After the girls were kidnapped, First forced to do a "virginity test", resisted and druggedIf you want to run, your face will be burned by cigarette butts.
In fact, what happened to these people is no accident. The darkness of Cambodia has long grown soil, and every problem can be traced back to the hidden dangers rooted in the roots.
Historical roots
During the Khmer Rouge rule from 1975 to 1979, Nearly 2 million people died from slaughter or famine., accounting for a quarter of the country's population at that time.
Nearly 10 million mines were left behind after the war, civilians are still being injured, and social reconstruction has lacked an important cornerstone from the beginning.
During the Vietnam War, The United States dropped another 2.75 million tons of bombs here, equivalent to dropping more than 300 tons every dayHundreds of thousands of civilians were killed.
The infrastructure is completely destroyed, generations have not received complete education, and it is difficult to build a social order.
Later, the government legalized gambling in order to make quick money, West Port’s 91 licensed casinos account for 54% of the country’s total.
Signed land Just look at passports without background, someone can enter with a fake identityCriminal gangs brought in no one stopped.
Despite a ban on gambling in 2019, many officials early received the casino money.
There are media photographs of the West Port casino replacing a "entertainment center" sign continues to operate, The patrol cop passed by without looking in.
According to World Bank data for 2024, per capita GDP is $1,700 and Southeast Asia is third.
60% of people in rural areas earn less than $3 a dayEven eating is a problem, let alone finding the right job.
According to UNICEF, nearly one-third of children aged 5 to 14 in Cambodia have to work to earn money.
When these uneducated children grow up, Criminal groups pay $3,000 a month if someone is willing to go to jail for victims of fraud.
More ordinary people, however, have long been caught up in the dark.
Oppression and Resistance
The West Port shops have to pay a monthly "protection fee", if they do not pay, they are broken., some Chinese winery owners were forced to close their businesses that had been in operation for many years because they couldn't withstand the blackmail.
Even parents should send their children to school with their bags.
The local government is finally getting serious, starting from June 2024 "Eliminate online fraud"Action, Within 100 days, 56 places were destroyed, 3,455 people were arrested, and more than 2,800 foreign suspects were repatriated to their places of origin.
Prime Minister Hongmanet ordered the integration of military and police forces, and officials who failed to perform duties would be directly dismissed and investigated.
International joint efforts are more intense, in 2024 the Chinese Cambodian police twice seized charter planes, More than 1,180 suspects of gambling fraud have been brought back to China.
Although the United States sanctions companies involved in crimes, But $17 million has also been allocated to help Cambodia clean up mines and fight against tuberculosis.
Folk rescue is the most thrilling. The Sino-Cambodian volunteer team once rushed into the hospital with military police and snatched out the girl who was guarded during gastric lavage.
Captain Chen said, The rescue man ran away at a speed of 160 miles per hour, seeing the victims being sold up to 10 times.
UNICEF didn't stop and sent social workers to provide psychological counseling to traumatized children. It also cooperated with China to investigate the levels of heavy metals in children's bodies.These scattered lights are shining little by little into the corners swallowed by crime.
Write at the end
UNICEF will build 8 child protection centers in Cambodia in 2024 to help more than 2,100 traumatized children provide guidance, also teaches basic skills to avoid being lured by criminal groups.
But these efforts are far from dispelling the darkness, and the situation in Cambodia remains severe.
The U.S. State Department's 2024 report listed it as "Level 3", About 100,000 people are still trapped in fraud dens. South Korea will have 3248 citizens stranded in 2024.The Chinese embassy has also repeatedly warned of the high-paying recruitment trap.
Scam is still escalating, from direct recruitment to remote payment and then lured abroad.
I hope more people will be vigilant, and I also hope that international cooperation can completely eliminate crimes and let the sunshine in Angkor Wat shine into ordinary days again.
