There is a subordinate called ‘Helmet gangs’ go out to lend money in markets or communities. causing the villagers to know only the creditor’s nickname This uses the method of collecting debts by walking around the market or in the pl
ace where the debtor makes a living. In this part, the Ministry of Interior will send details of creditors outside the system to the police in order to carry out an investigation and find a way to arrest them, such as List of names and locations where this group of people goes to lend money All of which are illegal acts. because there is no license to operate a lending business Moreover, they collect interest that exceeds the legal rate.

The mediation process is very important. because it refers to the results of operations He emphasized that every area should complete the mediation to 100% according to the target.’
