Hey there! Guess what? ๐ฒ Thailand has decided to turn off the electricity in some areas along its border with Myanmar! But why would they do that? Let’s find out together!
So, there were some places in Myanmar (that’s a country next to Thailand) where bad guys were doing sneaky things like scamming people online, human trafficking ๐, and other illegal stuff. They were using electricity from Thailand to power their operations!
Thailand’s Deputy Prime Minister, Mr. Anutin Charnvirakul, announced that on Wednesday morning, they cut off the power supply to five areas. This decision was made to help stop these bad activities that were affecting people not just in Thailand, but in many countries!
This is a big step to keep everyone safe and to stop the scammers from tricking people over the phone ๐ and online ๐ป. It’s like turning off the lights on the bad guys!
Isn’t it amazing how countries work together to fight crime and protect people? Let’s hope this makes the world a bit safer! ๐โจ
