Inside the Investigation of the World's Biggest & Most Brutal Fishing Fleet 

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'm glad you survived bro.good for you.not many make it home like you did.

You choose to work there dumdum.

@@devochristian7952 bro that’s some story …you should have an interview done

Yeah this was really weird... Like random facts and statements l, no real direction for the story.

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.

Can you send the link please?

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.

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.

💀 ☠️ 💀

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.

Hey, that's not fare. Women eat fish also.

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.

Who do u think? The vessels captain

Chinese

Employer

I dont think Pigeons can do well in sea, that too between the moving vessels

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 .

Funny fake news and disinformation.🤡 Deep sea fishing came very late for the PRC 🇨🇳 . ROC 🇹🇼 started much earlier than the PRC .

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.

@@peekaboopeekaboo1165 not true. many are recruited from south east and south asia. in this incident there were three different members of different communities and origins. including mongolians. i hear it also happens to many indonesians. and china is known to show major preference for the cultural majority, the han chinese i believe they’re called. either way, chins would bury such a tragedy if it makes them look bad

@@mallarieluvsgirls I'm talking about Time doing an in-depth report of Indonesian Gov't instigated massacres !

Im praying for you 🙏🏾 you guys should make a lawsuit , nobody deserves to be hurt at work

I bet you still do though

i do still eat fish. i eat less fish when i am unsure of the source. @@justinantebellum1320

@@justinantebellum1320I can’t speak for anyone else, but for years now I only eat the fish I catch.

Funny fake news and disinformation. It happens only in the Atlantic Ocean onboard deep sea fishing ships .

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.

stop buying fish from China

They don't care. It's not in their culture to think of these things.

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.

@@timecode37 How much of the fish you eat comes from China? Unless youre Chinese, that number is likely close to 0%.

@@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.

Eu companies as well not just America

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 .

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"... 😢
