The MNDAA raise their flag over the gate to Chinshwehaw; their battle to take over the crime city run by Min Aung Hlaing’s “drug army” has begun. MNDAA announcements emphasize taking out the scam syndicates as one of their key objectives. https://t.co/JIBZBD1hWe

Rumors already circulating that the MNDAA have liberated at least one compound, freeing hundreds of Chinese nationals held as forced labor in the Kokang BGF scam compounds.

MNDAA Special Region 1 (Kokang) “Martial Law Committee” issues two important statements: (1) demands that all junta troops surrender immediately, hand over weapons, and in turn will receive guarantees for their lives and assets from the MNDAA; pic.twitter.com/fPy5TefBve

(2) demands that all Chinese citizens refrain from participating in any anti-revolutionary activities, stay away from junta posts, and forbids Chinese from supporting the illegitimate military regime. Also demands that all involved in scam syndicates surrender to MNdAA

Statement also gives guidance to victims of forced criminality and trafficking: they are to report to the MNdAA, which will provide protection and facilitate repatriation; offers rewards to anyone providing info on traffickers and scammers.

Fails to mention what nationals of other countries should do - would be good if the MNdAA might acknowledge that there are victims from across the globe in the Kokang compounds.

Further crackdown in Wa; clean up in Kokang? UWSA hands over another 140 Chinese nationals to the PRC; launches public campaign including anti-scam posters; meanwhile Kokang BGF and police mobilize to clean schools and do yard work rather than crackdown on scam syndicates. pic.twitter.com/B7tB07HhH0
