Chinese in Myanmar to go back to China

NAYPYIDAW: Due to a turbulent political situation, worsening coronavirus infection, over 10,000 Chinese are waiting at Ruili, a China-Myanmar border city to turn themselves in, in order to return to China, putting great pressure on the border city Ruili as it struggles to fight imported Covid-19 cases.

The flow of Chinese, who plan to turn themselves in, waiting to cross the border into China hasn't stopped since June, an anonymous Ruili government official told the Global Times, noting that this comes after the government started to require Chinese staying in northern Myanmar to register their identities.
