The CCP is reported to have tightened control over Chinese citizensโ€™ overseas travel to save face as so many citizens are fleeing.

The sharp increase of Chinese citizens joining the โ€œrunโ€ movementโ€”fleeing China by both legal and illegal meansโ€”has attracted international attention since the Chinese Communist Partyโ€™s (CCP) three-year draconian โ€œzero-COVIDโ€ lockdowns that caused countless humanitarian tragedies.

Most of them have taken various routes to the United States, their ideal destination.

Meanwhile, the CCP is reported to have tightened control over Chinese citizensโ€™ overseas travel to save face as so many citizens are fleeing, in contrast to the CCPโ€™s claim of โ€œconfidenceโ€ in its system.

Different Routes

According to media reports and what fleeing citizens told The Epoch Times, Chinese nationals at various economic strata take different routes into the United States.

People with sufficient funds can enter Mexico through a Schengen visa or a short visit visa. Some use a Korean visa to enter Panama without a visa, and some people directly obtain a Mexican visa under the arrangement of an agency and cross the U.S. southern border via the shortest route.

Other Chinese have taken longer routes, first flying to Thailand, then to Turkey, then to Ecuador. Others fly to Turkey via Hong Kong.

Mr. Lu, who is doing business in Thailand, told The Epoch Times that the Chinese regime has tightened its exit controls. His full name, along with others mentioned in this story, is being withheld for his safety.

If people join a tour group, they wonโ€™t be bothered by border control agents. But people traveling independently will most likely be interrogated for extended periods by customs about their reasons for going to Thailand.

โ€œThe authorities are worried that after people go to Thailand, they may go from Thailand to Turkey, South America, and then enter the United States,โ€ he said. โ€œSome people from Chengdu, Luoyang, and other parts of China told me that when they were leaving China as individuals, theyโ€™re all interrogated, the shortest questioning time was 25 minutes.โ€

Mr. Lu believes that the reason why customs have interrogated people like this was that they must have received orders from above to probe peopleโ€™s reasons for leaving.
