Cyberscam operations, which have thrived in Myanmar’s lawless border areas for several years, lure foreign workers with promises of high-paying jobs but hold them hostage and force them to commit online fraud.
Four hundred Indonesian nationals will return home on Tuesday and “around 161” are to come back on Wednesday, Judha Nugraha, the director of citizen protection at Indonesia’s foreign ministry, told AFP.
Indonesian authorities already repatriated 140 nationals from Myanmar via Thailand last month.
Thousands of Indonesians have been enticed abroad in recent years to other Southeast Asian countries for better-paying jobs, only to end up in the hands of transnational scam operators.
The United Nations estimates that as many as 120,000 people -- many of them Chinese men -- may be working in Myanmar scam centres against their will.
