zaphod reborn Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Amazing how they swiftly come to action when a foreign fishing vessel enters their territorial waters, but they can't act when their own fishing boats are involved in human trafficking.

shirtless Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 It would be fair to say Thailand is not innocent either only when the last fish is caught will they understand the damage they are doing in the name of greed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falangjim Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Look at the size of those guns! I'd say I was impressed, but nothing impresses me about the fishing industry in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

senor123 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Something weird about that photo. As mentioned before, the guns are really long, or the servicemen are really short, but the other weird thing is that the MPs are wearing short long pants or long short pants.

atsiii Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 "..... arrested its five members" ? Photo of nine civilians. Yes, in Thailand, 5 Vietnamese + 5 Camboians = 9 arrested and photographed criminals. Perhaps the 10th person had enough 'cents' (pun intended) to avoid arrest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stray Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I didn't think they could find boats unless they had an 'approved' GPS tracking device attached. Or, is it just local boats with illegal crews that they just can't seem to find? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
