Inside the Investigation of the World's Biggest & Most Brutal Fishing Fleet
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 жов 2023
- A look at how Ian Urbina and an international team of reporters at sea and on land conducted a four-year investigation that revealed a broad pattern of severe human rights abuses tied to the global seafood industry. They focused on China because it has by far the largest high-seas fishing fleet and processes much of the world’s catch.

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.
World court should not allow this to happen. Those china men are only rush for money. They care less for their foreign workers. Communist style.
I've been work for 13 months on chinese fishing vessel it was so hard to get back home because there is no human rights and there is still remains people like me.
Im praying for you 🙏🏾 you guys should make a lawsuit , nobody deserves to be hurt at work
watch the murder story of the squid fishing ship < Lurongyu 2682 > where only 11 from the 33 crew members came home alive
Nah ... Time probably won't do a story about it .
If the victims were all Chinese .
I wonder if Time have made a documentary about Indonesia Gov cover-up of the 1998 Race Riots .
Thanks for that not that I'm a reporter but I will check it out.
They’re also exposing “Human Trafficking” the workers are on the ships are forced to work in horrific conditions and will get killed if they don’t perform the way they’re supposed to! Sounds like their families lives are threatened back home too!
You were out there for years. You must have gotten much more video that’s this. This should be a 2 or 3 hour documentary. I’d like to see that.
Not sure if it’s tied to Time’s reporting but the New Yorker released a very extensive article on this, highly recommend reading.
Can you send the link please?

Great work
I remember seeing huge 'cities' at sea of Russian fishing fleets off West Africa in the 1970's when I was at sea! How there are any fish left now is simply amazing!
Because the sea is boundless and bigger than anyone can ever really imagine
@@joddogrubbish fish stocks are in exponential decline in every ocean right across the world.
@@joddog The sea is the farthest thing from boundless. On the contrary, we're experiencing the highest levels of fish population decline and species extinction. Educate yourself before you make yourself look dumb.
I was fishery officer in the Falkland's over 20 years ago certainly terrible conditions, what I did witness South Koreans were by far the most brutal how they treated non Koreans and the Japanese were most respectful and the non Japanese crew were well treated.
Asians are still a Largely Racist People.
Yea right. The Chinese are the most brutal. It’s well documented
why did you feel the need to compare different nationalities @userbunchofrandomnumbersandletters?
@@sforza209 yes they are the most brutal now - but 20 years ago there was only a fraction of the Chinese fishing fleet that there is today. The number of Chinese boat has increased 20x in the last 20 years.
@@vilAvainbecause it’s very relevant so you know which country/ product and nationality to boycott.
These poor people need to speak to their loved ones....they need help!!!
Governments know what’s going on but turn a blind eye to greed
Its not brutal anymore.. Its insane..inhumane.. This type of fishing company should be banned from recruiting workers internationaly.
Makes me hesitate to eat fish 😳
I bet you still do though
i do still eat fish. i eat less fish when i am unsure of the source. @@justinantebellum1320
There's a few longline vessels currently fishing here off newfoundland from Japan and other countries like these
What are they going to do after they overfish all of these places?
💀 ☠️ 💀
they definitely have been overfishing these areas ever since industrialization started. we are depleting our oceans and causing an environmental catastrophe while dumping all our trash into it.
but it isn't like the scientists haven't been trying to tell us that for a while 😅
Exactly what they do now, illegally fish other peoples waters.
Its insane seeing all those vessels sitting in the far reaches of the ocean all doing the same thing.
these chinese fisherman is nothing compared to the indonesian fisherman that they hired to work there , the death rate is insane . they were given rusty color water to drink , salt water to bath , and instant noodle to eat .
why would they wan to work there anyway?
@@kaizokuzombie1011 No other options probably or were given false promises of wealth....
Yeah tbh it makes me humbled a lot of times, I have it so good where I was born.
@@kaizokuzombie1011 Always false promises, basically sold into slave labour, same thing happens to many south asians or any one from a poorer country who is desperate.
from west philippine sea up to the vast world ocean,chinese fisherman were the most cruel fishing race in our planet
Funny fake news and disinformation.
It happens only in the Atlantic Ocean onboard deep sea fishing ships .
Well done boss Qu,👍
so interesting
Gotta save some fish for the future!!! If we keep taking from our oceans we are not gonna have anything left.
Sending for support and ❤️❤️god bless ❤️❤️🙂
Why aren't the automatic captions enabled on this? I don't hear well so I can't follow this.
Put ur ear piece in then old man.
@@sforza209 I'm mostly deaf from birth, thanks for the brilliant suggestion though.
They cleanse the oceans till there's nothing left. Hardly anything is left to grow to a good size. Most big catches are taken at there peak breeding times . Which in due course has obvious effect on overall size and numbers. There's now 8 billion people on this planet. That says it all does'nt it. The wildlife is disappearing, insects, fish, trees etc. Eventually there won't be anything. Who can you thank? Mankind
Wish I knew how to contact, I have dozens of radio loggings of these ships.
So you didn’t help the people who are slaves???
How do you stop this entitled behavior
You cant. Its everyone crimes. Do you really thinks other countries did not do this?
@@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.
Okay, did they help those two?
Over sooner then we all think truly
Like it or not we're all guilty, why? Money.
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.
All the crew should be saved and all the fishing boats sent to the bottom of the ocean they are killing the world supply
They will deplete the stocks.What will happen then?They shouldn't be allowed to do this.
The Chinese do and take what they want! They just don't give a dam!
@@senianns9522
Fake news and disinformation.
The Chinese aren't the only deep sea fishing operators .
It's legal .
4:03 dude didn't even have gloves 🧤?? 😮😳
No narration?
Boy, yall have some major cajones scuba diving in ocean at night. Call me a wuss. 😭😂
Ya true we need to help fishing boats seamen’s
Very terrible life for them
In 1993 I’m working at fishing carriers vessel I know all what they said most Chinese so sad 😞
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.
I mean I knew it was bad, but wow......................
good overview but no detail at all... where is the actual documentary that explains it all?
The team is doing some good work, but nothing ever happens to the ships brutal captain.
Thank you China for making Seafood cheaper for all of us. Lol American companies that buy Chinese Seafood arent complaining tho.
Eu companies as well not just America
Wait, at 10:31, when the two said "*they* wont let us go", who did they mean by "they"?
Who do u think? The vessels captain
Chinese
Employer
please don't forget Daniel.
Were the victims that requested help rescued? 😭
Mankind and greed will Never end, there are no limits, until the end of our planet.
when they rolled their message in a bottle i turned that crap off
Those boats are simply plunder machines. How do we get rid of them?
Help Her
i dont even want to know how much money they spent doing this. instead of helping these people they just film it for us to enjoy😂🤦♀️
those asking to be rescued are chinese imagine other nationalities whose they think are lesser human being than them.
Use pigeons instead bottles?
Look like same my face🤣🤣🤣
They should band the ship from travel anywhere..😡
That is China style.
Next time you eat calamari steak...remember where it vame from😢😢
🤔🤔🤔🙄🙄🙄
Supply and demand. As long as western countries want it . Ships like this will supply it .
Quit blaming the west.
@@nobody687 then who ?
@nazsalabarria860 maybe the ones doing it. They said half stays in China. Well, the truth is the majority stays in Asia. Americans are not big fish eaters. Still blaming the west for others' actions is old and gas lighting. These companies undercut other markets and aggressively push their product.
Those who fish maybe?? Especially under those conditions??
It’s to up to consumers to stop buying the fish for it to stop happening but it’s also up to the big companies to stop putting profit above safety and sustainability in their priorities.
I can't help but feel sorry for the deckhands, I would imagine many more then just those who came forward are enslaved, hell the cptn might as well be enslaved as well.
quality is very sad for an outfit like time.
plesse..save them
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.🤔
All done with the cognisance of the Chinese government. There's the problem!
I laughed but nobody’s laughing,China is playing the backed up a little bully on a off the charts…retort
Funny false narrative and disinformation.
These are private commercial fishing operation ... Not State-run .
CIA knows how to work.
Western mega fishingships also around the globe. German, Dutch, etcetera
I'm sure they all have regulations and I'm pretty sure china doesn't
At least save the dog!!
Help them get home dont just do this for 👍 on youtube !!!!
They are squid fishing with hooks. Big deal
Yeah man , this is in fact a sustainable way of fishing , do the people who commented about the fish stocks even know about fishing !? The Dutch fleet are far greater pirates than these poor guys , they kill everithing in their paths , systems like " flyshooting" or "electrotrawling", killing everything , even shrimp , clams , crabs , worms , entire eco-systems ...
This video is not about overfishing the international " lawless" waters , but about the poor workcircomstance of the "prisoners" on those ships !
As a sportsfisherman this makes me sad seeing how many people don't get the point ,even the guys who made this video .
This video should be titeld "prisoners abord fishing vessels"... 😢
This Video proves nothing
China been doing this for centuries lol.
Funny fake news and disinformation.🤡
Deep sea fishing came very late for the PRC 🇨🇳 .
ROC 🇹🇼 started much earlier than the PRC .
then american complain about being gay in america while people live like this 😂
But we have Americans that whine and complain because someone didn’t make their latte the right way 🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼
This video definitely makes me feel blessed to be born American though.
Cause you have never worked in physically difficult jobs like Construction or Mining or Logging or Steel factories .
You have only worked in cushy Desk jobs .
Lots of Americans work in physically demanding jobs too .
I'm still waiting for the reporting bruh.
They are fully oriented how to respond on posible intruders.. never believe on them
Didn’t show anything the headline mentioned. Crap
