(FILES) This pool photo taken on July 17, 2025 and released on July 18 by Agence Kampuchea Presse (AKP) shows computers, smartphones and other equipment seized during a raid on a scam centre in Kandal province. China is moving against the cyberscam tycoons making fortunes in Southeast Asia, driven by mounting public pressure and Beijing's desire to keep control of judicial processes, analysts say. In 2025, a series of crackdowns largely driven by Beijing -- which wields significant economic and diplomatic influence in the region -- saw thousands of workers released from scam centres in Myanmar and Cambodia and repatriated to their home countries, many of them to China. Now Beijing has turned its focus to the bosses at the apex of the criminal pyramids, netting its biggest player so far with the arrest and extradition of Chen Zhi from Cambodia in January 2026.
