Taiwan Labels Thailand a High-Risk Travel Destination

Taiwan has classified Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, Cambodia, and Laos as high-risk travel destinations due to their links with fraud rings. Travelers will now see safety warnings on airline tickets and are urged to use a dedicated safety app. The move follows the recent rescue of 260 foreign nationals, including seven Taiwanese, from a Myanmar scam center. Authorities are increasing efforts to prevent citizens from being lured into fraudulent operations. Airlines are also asked to reinforce security messages. Taiwan's proactive measures highlight the growing concerns over international crime syndicates targeting travelers.
