1.In recent years, there have been incidents where foreigners are promised attractive conditions, such as high compensation, through social media and then trafficked to areas near the border with Thailand, specifically Tachilek in Shan State and Myawaddy in Kayin State, where they are illegally forced to work.

2.Since the coup in February 2021, these border areas have come under the de facto control of ethnic armed organizations, and due to the deterioration of security, they have become regions where the current Myanmar regime has little governance. Additionally, fighting has intensified in the surrounding areas, increasing the risk of becoming embroiled in criminal activities. Therefore, if you fall victim to a crime in these regions, it will not be easy for law enforcement authorities to rescue or resolve the situation, and our embassy may not be able to provide prompt and adequate support.

3.If you come across job offers promising high salaries through social media, please understand the above situation and exercise caution to avoid being deceived.
