We were astonished when we saw the way how the Sierra Leone navy "controls" its waters. With such small boats no one can do anything against sea vessels. It seriously needs to modernize. No wonder why it is easy to South Koreans to steel fish.
Illegal fishing is a worldwide phenomena, and by no means restricted or particularly prevalent around the coast of Africa. There is an abundance of evidence anyone can Google to confirm this.
If the Navy is in on the corruption and theft then it will be very hard to stop it. Victor seems to be trying to do a great job. I hope he gets more manpower and resources to do his job.
Donate to the Environmental Justice Foundation ejfoundation (dot) org they seem to be the only ones doing something about this. Give Amra Tua and his friends more speedboats to drive these freeloading scum bags out of their waters..
Well, Africa feeds the world. Europe is still surviving on Africa's resources,stop the exports from the Congo and see how fast France, Belgium and UK will go down. Asia is the new kid on the block, aggressively coming in for resources - legally and illegally . The Russians were tough enough to prevent exploitation the of their Gold, Oil and Gas.
the somali pirates have run them outta east african waters, so they are in west african waters. west africa need to set up something similar to what the somalis did.
Thats why I totally have sympathy with Somali pirates, as the west does not care about the poor unless it affects their pockets, then expect alot of knee jerk policies...
@eujeeves True. I saw inside corruption from the beginning. This matter needs to be take up with the people. The people are the only ones who can stop or die trying.
they should learn from their east African brothers (the somalis) and start killing these asian and european thieves!

How the hell do you stop pirate fishing when this 12:50 is you're Navy?
Thanks for the investigation but it doesn't take an investigative reporter to know corruption is at the core of this.
