Popular Post snoop1130 Posted January 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 14, 2022 Nakhon Si Thammarat (NNT) - The national police have pledged to address illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing at its roots, by identifying and suppressing capitalists and mafia behind the practice. An assistant police chief has promised local fishermen any government officials or politicians involved will be prosecuted. Pol Lt Gen Surachate Hakparn, Assistant Commissioner General of the Royal Thai Police said key figures behind the illegal practice will be brought to justice. His remark was delivered during his meeting with fisherfolks in Nakhon Si Thammarat province. Pol Lt Gen Surachate said the police will be reviving cold cases before their statutes of limitations expire. He promised to enforce the law against everyone involved in IUU fishing. Following this meeting, the assistant police chief had discussions with commercial fisherman delegates on the sustaining of Thailand’s fisheries standards after the lifting of the Yellow Card status by the European Union. -- © Copyright NNT 2022-01-14 - Aetna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

As if any government official or politicians would be mixed up in any thing illegal? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biggles45 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 The police have no credibility with the Thai people, who have seen and heard it all before. They know that when the envelopes come out they will be on their own. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misterwhisper Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 POLICE INSPECTOR I am so sorry, but I have been ordered to investigate you for IUU fishing today. IUU FISHING OPERATOR (a.k.a. "capitalist" or "mafia") That's perfectly alright. Don't forget to come back next week to collect your monthly brown envelope. POLICE INSPECTOR Will do. Oh, and don't worry about the inconvenience. Everything will be back to normal once the hype has died down. IUU FISHING OPERATOR I know, I know. I guess it's just our turn for "7 deadly days" this time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andycoops Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 So after decades of slave labour etc an investigation is to take place, which of course will go nowhere because of the usual obstruction of justice in the form of payouts from those that have made fourtunes from the trade, which is why it continues.

The Hammer2021 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Illegal fishing is linked to a dreadful slave trade and one reason why fish is so cheap here. The price of squid is absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
