Don’t forget the Indonesian victim named Daniel. Who was beaten and neglected so much he died from malnutrition. Unable to phone his family back home for a year. And came back home in a casket.
and his friends on board, the chinese staff decline to gave them info about daniel well being after he was transferred to another ships so he can get treated. so his friends only knew about daniel passed away after more than 6 month when they landed back in Singapore.
Or the other Indonesian guy who died on board and was put in a wooden coffin with heavy chains wrapped around it and put overboard because the captain lied about saying its what his parents wanted although the victims friends onboard said no way would they ask for a sea burial, another death by malnutrition, all these men lived off noodles and dirty water and denied cheap medication for a treatable illness.
I am Indonesian. I worked on Taiwanese longline-fishing vessel in 2010. I can confirmed, even in different kind of fishing vessel, chinese are BRUTAL including the chinese crew. Beaten, scolding, fighting among the crew, etc. Even when my left arm broke, they never let me go home until I finished my contract. One of my colleague from Phillipine die (the cause is unclear) and they put him on refrigerator room next to tuna.

Here in South Africa, the Chinese fish in our waters and totally deplete our fish stocks. They take everything, and although SA is surrounded by 2 oceans, we now have to import fish. Last year a Chinese trawler docked in Cape Town for repairs. It was found to have a few dozen dogs (for food) . They were in such a bad state , the SPCA had to remove them.
Fishing was never meant to be done like this. Were pillaging the sea, its horrific, its criminal and we need to change. Humanity is on a downward spiral and videos like this show and prove this.
They way they are "over fishing" our oceans there will be nothing left for them to take very soon. Spanish trawlers are often caught "stealing" Patagonia Toothfish from Australian territorial waters in the Indian Ocean with very basic crew conditions aboard ship. I remember looking at two South Korean large fishing boats at Tarawa, Kiribati in the late 1980's and they were disgusting, rust ridden and stinking, crew dressed virtually in rags. Australian supermarkets are well known for importing packaged seafood from China and Vietnam from cheap labour packaging factories, I will not buy them.🤔
@@garfield2742 you can. You can't stop a meteor or a hurricane or a wet fart from coming out. But you can stop boats from pillaging the sea. Only a few corrupt countries encourage it. Not every country
Humanity would need to stop consuming so much that comes from the sea, but as this would need to happen globally, it will never happen unless there's a (so far unprecedented) agreement internationally to cut down on fish and whatever else we fish from the waters. It is almost impossible, considering there is so much money for so many people involved. Also imagine being the government that has to outlaw fish, noone would vote for you again.
@@TerryHausennNot really… China is the world’s second leading exporter of fish and has the largest fishing fleet of any country. The USA for example imports ~60% of its seafood, much of that being from China. Plus it’s not just China, commercial fishing is a brutal industry.
