The foreign ministers of China and Thailand said Lancang-Mekong countries will step up intelligence sharing, joint training and capacity building to combat cybercrime and scam operations. The commitment emerged from Beijing-Thai talks and covers the six-nation Lancang-Mekong grouping. It matters because cross-border scam centers, many clustered along the Thai-Myanmar border, have become a major drag on regional tourism and investor confidence. Watch for concrete funding and staffing for joint exercises, and whether the cooperation extends to repatriation of scam-center workers and asset recovery.
