      The Italian and Uruguayan officials sent their Spring Festival greetings as Chinese embassies held colorful activities to celebrate the most important festival in China.

      The Chinese Embassy in Italy held a reception in Rome on Jan 22, gathering over 600 representatives including Italian political figures, students, and personnel from Chinese enterprises in Italy.

      The reception featured various activities such as intangible cultural heritage handicraft exhibition, stage performance, and experiencing Chinese calligraphy.

      The attending officials sent their Spring Festival greetings, saying the past year set another milestone in Italy-China relations and they hope the Year of the Snake will be a year of peace and harmony.

      "I send my Spring Festival greeting to the Chinese government and the Chinese people. The Chinese people enjoy a long history and culture. The Italian people and the Chinese people spend together an important period in history. I hope this year will be a year of peace and harmony," said Margherita Cassano, president of the Supreme Court of Cassation of Italy.

      The Chinese Embassy in Uruguay hosted a Spring Festival reception in Montevideo on Jan 23, gathering both Chinese and Uruguayan artists in a wide range of performances including concerts, martial art performance, dragon dance, and lion dance.

      The officials said the festival celebration helped connect people from the two countries together and marked the deep friendship between Uruguay and China.

      "The inscription of the Spring Festival on the UNESCO list is remarkable. Despite that Uruguay and China are geographically distant, the solid friendship between the two countries will bond us together," said Mauricio Zunino, mayor of Montevideo.

      China, Myanmar, Thailand joint hands in fighting against cross-border telecom fraud

      High-level officials from China, Myanmar and Thailand have recently engaged in multiple discussions for establishing a joint mechanism to combat cross-border telecom fraud.

      Police authorities in the three countries have all intensified their operations to combat telecom fraud in the Myawaddy region. Thailand has implemented measures such as cutting off power, internet, and fuel supplies to Myawaddy, while also increasing patrols along the Thailand-Myanmar border to block the smuggling and transfer of individuals involved in fraud crimes.

      Myanmar has launched an extensive crackdown on telecom fraud operations in Myawaddy, apprehending suspects and rescuing Chinese nationals trapped in the area.

      The collaboration among the three countries has led to significant progress, with large numbers of telecom fraud suspects from the Myawaddy area having been arrested.

      The first group of 200 Chinese citizens suspected of involvement in telecom fraud was repatriated from Myanmar to China on Thursday.

      They were initially transferred to Thailand's Mae Sot near the border with Myanmar earlier that day, before being flown back to China on four chartered flights, escorted by police officers from east China's Jiangsu Province.

      "Under the unified deployment of the Ministry of Public Security, Jiangsu police will mobilize a specialized team to investigate into the first batch of transferred individuals in the joint operation and take decisive legal action against any criminal activities," said Ding Jie, head of the case investigation unit under the anti-fraud and new crime team of the Jiangsu Provincial Public Security Department.

      In response to the escalating telecom fraud issue in Myawaddy, the ministry has been strengthening collaboration with law enforcement agencies in Myanmar and Thailand to intensify crackdown efforts.

      At the end of January, with the support of Chinese embassies in Thailand and Myanmar, the ministry dispatched task forces to both countries for multiple rounds of talks, aiming to strengthen trilateral cooperation and establish a joint mechanism to combat cross-border crimes like telecom fraud and human trafficking.

      "The tripartite mechanism between China, Myanmar, and Thailand for combating telecom fraud and other cross-border crimes will operate on a regular basis. China's public security authorities will expand practical cooperation with more countries, focusing on rescuing victims, capturing key figures and funders behind telecom fraud rings, and intensifying efforts to dismantle fraud operations in Myawaddy. We are committed to cracking down on cross-border crimes such as telecom fraud to protect the legitimate rights of Chinese citizens," said Liu Ningning, an official with the criminal investigation department of the Ministry of Public Security.
