China will continue to deepen international law-enforcement cooperation and take tougher steps to combat cross-border crimes, especially telecom fraud and online gambling, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said at a regular press briefing in Beijing on Thursday.
Guo made the remarks in response to a media query regarding combating cross-border telecom and internet fraud.
"Competent authorities have released information. For some time, China has been actively working with Myanmar and other countries in combating crimes of cross-border telecom and online fraud, eliminating the scourge of online gambling and telecom fraud, protecting the safety of people’s life and property, and keeping the exchange and cooperation between regional countries in order. These efforts have achieved remarkable results. China will continue deepening international law enforcement cooperation, step up efforts of combating telecom fraud and online gambling and other related cross-border crimes, and eradicate the problems of gambling and scam," he said.
