Myanmar's junta government is installing Chinese-built cameras with facial recognition capabilities in more cities across the country, three people with direct knowledge of the matter said.
Fisca and Naung Yoe, both headquartered in Yangon, did not respond to requests for comment.
The three sources also said Myanmar procurement firms that won the tenders sometimes use facial recognition software developed by local and regional companies as the Chinese software licenses are costly. They did not name the software companies.Closed-circuit television or video surveillance systems are used by many cities around the world to discourage crime.
In Mawlamyine, there are now over 200 Dahua cameras and more are due to be installed, another of the sources said. Huawei cameras were combined with facial recognition software in Naypyidaw, one source said. In Yangon, the surveillance system consists of a Hikvision traffic command centre and a mix of camera brands, said another of the sources.
