Top police brass tour Samae San fishing port

SATTAHIP:--Thailand’s deputy national police chief saw first how the country’s stricter new fishing regulations are being enforced during a visit to Sattahip.

Pol. Gen. Ek Angsananon toured the Port In/Port Out Control Center in Samae San July 25 to see how port officials are regulating fishing boats entering or leaving the fishing pier.

Pol. Capt. Anuchar Buthsingkorn, director of the center, explained its operations and problems faced.

The police brass visited and examined the various piers, as well as explained to boat operators the government’s policies and new regulations aimed at complying with the European Union’s standards on preventing illegal, unregistered and unreported fishing.

Under those rules, the Royal Thai Police was assigned to urgently suppress illegal fishing, use of illegal alien workers, and human trafficking.
