Illegal mining cost Malaysia $1.1 billion



Over five years, authorities discovered 14,000 underground farms that caused more than $1.1 billion in damages to the state energy company TNB.

Miners are tracked using drones and thermal sensors—as operators constantly move and disguise their equipment. This year alone, another 3,000 cases of electricity theft have been recorded.

Authorities believe the schemes are controlled by organized crime groups.
