samjaidee Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 "while the government and the Navy are now providing assistance to the affected fishermen and entrepreneurs who cannot continue their occupations due the government's human trafficking crackdown." This is a joke, right? People who have been involved in an illegal trade will be compensated because they have to stop breaking the law. If all the drug dealers stopped dealing would they be compensated for stopping breaking the law? It's really no different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox in charge of the hen house jumps to mind here. This is an inquiry that will go no where. Obviously too much money here to have anyone who will do something running the show.

Took the words right out of my mouth! Just an excuse to extort more money which will actually exacerbate the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retarius Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Can we have a "drum roll" for the number of CONVICTIONS? Maybe next year. Don't hold your breath for any prosecutions, much less convictions or actual jail time. Ain't gonna happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
