Abstract

In 2011, Indonesian fishers from South Korean vessels fishing in New Zealand’s waters, engaged in industrial action. The first to do so were fishers (seven in total) from the Shin Ji in May and 31 from the Oyang 75. Later that year, fishers from another South Korean vessel also engaged in industrial action. Problems on board South Korean vessels continued.
