Abstract

Just a few years ago, while undertaking a commissioned desk study on the four major Pacific and Indian Oceans’ tuna species, I came across a few reports that mentioned the hiring and situations of fishing vessel crews. One of them was a 2011 United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime report by Eve de Coning [de Coning, E, 2011. Transnational organized crime in the Fishing Industry. Focus on: Trafficking in Persons, Smuggling of Migrants, Illicit Drugs Trafficking. United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, 2011. United Nations, Vienna.
