Abstract

In response to the increasingly rampant transnational Telecom fraud crimes between China and Myanmar, China and Myanmar have launched wide-ranging law enforcement cooperation on the basis of existing international cooperation mechanisms and have achieved remarkable results. However, on the one hand, the complex social situation in Myanmar has resulted in discrepancy in law enforcement capacity between China and Myanmar. On the other hand, the mechanism of law enforcement cooperation between China and Myanmar is not yet developed. Moreover, the judicial cooperation is still in a state of absence. These factors have brought challenges to China and Myanmar in combating cross-border crimes. China and Myanmar should seize the opportunity of jointly combating Telecom fraud crimes to deepen the international cooperation in the field of nontraditional security.
