The UK is working with international partners to tackle the threat of cyber-enabled fraud emanating from scam centres in Cambodia, Myanmar, and elsewhere in Southeast Asia. We have used sanctions to disrupt the networks behind these illicit activities and, where appropriate, we are providing technical assistance to strengthen the capacity of governments and law enforcement to address this issue. Nevertheless, it is important that we continue to go further, which is why strengthening international cooperation is at the heart of the Government's Fraud Strategy for 2026-29, published on 9 March.
We are supportive of actions taken by Governments in Southeast Asia to tackle the threat of scam centres, including most recently in Cambodia. We continue to monitor these efforts and regularly review the latest evidence of the threat of cyber-enabled fraud. This includes assessing emerging trends of displacement into other jurisdictions and our ongoing work to address the issue at a regional level. In regards to funds lost by UK victims of fraud linked to foreign-based scam centres, I refer the Hon. member to the answer given to question 21153 on 18 December 2024.

To ask His Majesty's Government what representations they have received concerning the making of military awards for bravery for those involved in the activities of Unit 731 in Southeast Asia during the Second World War.
To ask His Majesty's Government what representations they have received concerning the making of military awards for bravery for those involved in the activities of Unit 731 in Southeast Asia during the Second World War.
Unit 731 was a Japanese secret research facility which operated between 1933 and 1945 and conducted human experiments to test potential military uses of biological and chemical agents.
The victims, who were all killed, were predominantly Chinese, and to a lesser extent, Russian, Korean and Mongolian. Reports of Western and Commonwealth Prisoners of War being victims of Unit 731 are unverified and there is no confirmed evidence of UK nationals being held there.
The Ministry Of Defence has received no correspondence making representations for military awards for bravery, in respect of those involved in the activities of Unit 731 during the Second World War.
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the long-term sustainability of farmed salmon in the context of farmed salmon feed production worsening food security in Southeast Asia and West Africa and exacerbating global inequalities.
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the long-term sustainability of farmed salmon in the context of farmed salmon feed production worsening food security in Southeast Asia and West Africa and exacerbating global inequalities.
Farmed salmon is a key UK food export, and the sector provides vital support to many remote or fragile communities, particularly in Scotland, where its production is concentrated. While aquaculture policy is a devolved matter, the UK Government regularly raises in a variety of international fisheries forums the need to ensure the long-term sustainability of farmed fish.
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the implications of the increased naval and infrastructure presence of China in Southeast Asia for the UK's strategic and economic interests.
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the implications of the increased naval and infrastructure presence of China in Southeast Asia for the UK's strategic and economic interests.
The UK has enduring interests in South-East Asia and is committed to maintaining regional security and stability. In the South China Sea, we are committed to international law, the primacy of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), and to freedom of navigation and overflight. We oppose any action that raises tensions or the risk of miscalculation, take no sides in sovereignty disputes and encourage all parties to settle their disputes peacefully through the existing legal mechanisms, particularly UNCLOS.
