KUNMING, October 1 (Xinhua) — Law enforcement agencies from China, Laos, Myanmar, and Thailand concluded the 157th joint patrol of the Mekong River on Tuesday, according to the Public Security Department of Yunnan Province in southwest China.
More than 100 law enforcement officers from four countries and seven patrol vessels took part in the joint patrol.
The mission aimed to ensure the security of waterways and combat cross-border crimes such as online gambling, telecommunications fraud, drug production and trafficking.
During the patrol, law enforcement agencies from the four countries held an information-sharing meeting in Muang Mo, Laos, to analyze the security situation in the Lancang-Mekong River basin. They also conducted joint training exercises at key sections of the river, focusing on practical aspects such as coordinated command and emergency response.
In addition, three Lao patrol vessels arrived in Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, for a planned friendly visit to the local water patrol unit.
The Mekong River, known as the Lancang River in China, is one of the most important waterways for cross-border navigation in Southeast Asia. Joint river patrols involving China, Laos, Myanmar, and Thailand have been conducted since December 2011. –0–
