Myanmar's Shwe Kokko: Inside a city 'built on scams'
A controversial city called Shwe Kokko has emerged on the Myanmar-Thailand border, built by Chinese entrepreneur She Zhijiang and accused of being a hub for scams, money-laundering, and human trafficking. Despite attempts to present itself as a legitimate resort destination, the city continues to operate scam centers targeting global victims, while its founder awaits extradition in a Bangkok jail. The development faces mounting pressure from Chinese and Thai authorities working to shut down fraudulent operations along the border.
