The Myanmar government has intensified its crackdown on illegal online gambling and scam operations in the Shwe Kokko and KK Park areas, demolishing additional unauthorised buildings and bringing the total number of structures destroyed in KK Park to 519 out of 635, according to the state-owned Global New Light of Myanmar.

Authorities have been carrying out systematic operations to enter and clear illegal buildings in the two areas, which have been identified as major hubs for online scams and gambling. The latest action took place yesterday in Section 3 of the Myawaddy–Maethawtalay area, also known as KK Park, where four illegal buildings were demolished. These included one four-storey structure and three two-storey buildings used for online scam and gambling activities.

With the latest demolitions, the number of illegal buildings systematically destroyed in KK Park has risen to 519, out of a total of 635 identified structures. The operations have been conducted by joint teams comprising security personnel, administrative authorities and local officials.

Demolition work using heavy machinery has been completed in KK Park, while fire cylinders have been used since December 14th to ensure complete destruction. Five additional two-storey buildings were destroyed using this method on Monday, bringing the total number of fully demolished buildings to 71.

Materials used for online scams and gambling in both the KK Park and Shwe Kokko areas were also systematically burned to prevent further misuse. The government reiterated that combating online scams and illegal gambling is a national responsibility and said the operations would continue in coordination with domestic forces and neighbouring countries to prevent such activities from re-establishing themselves in Myanmar.
