After four years of screaming about the cyber slavery crisis to any editor, diplomat, official or international law enforcement agent that would listen, it’s incredible to see such extensive coverage on the crisis in SEA in both @BBCWorld and @TheEconomist. However, it’s deeply depressing that after this time and publicity the situation is worsening. Not just in Southeast Asia but several other fragile regions. Secondly it’s absolutely incredible how Cambodia and Laos have managed to play a truly impressive PR campaign to the point where the general discussion now mostly focusses on those compounds over the myanmar border. No, Zhao Wei and the Golden Triangle Special Economic zone/Kings Romans, have not stopped. They have consolidated control and condensed active compounds to smaller areas. In Cambodia, the situation has, in no way, improved. It is worsening by the week. No serious compounds are shut down and remain so. No bosses have been arrested. The military , police and top levels of government not only provide protection but can actively run these criminal operations. It’s growing throughout the country. You hear about it less because some of the main groups orchestrating this fraud and slavery crisis have become incredibly litigious. Editors are not taking the risk to publish. They are winning. These criminal groups are even sponsoring European football teams. We will be releasing a series of detailed reports on this. The evidence is astounding. We can’t let the triads PR teams run the narrative on this global crisis.
