Labour and human rights abuses continue to exist in Taiwan’s DWF (distant water fishing) fleets. In an investigation for the report “Choppy Waters - Forced Labour and Illegal Fishing in Taiwan's Distant Water Fisheries”, Greenpeace East Asia visited one of the ports most frequented by Taiwanese vessels and interviewed migrant fishers, all hired from Indonesia, who worked on fishing vessels flagged or otherwise linked to Taiwan; as well as analysed the fishers’ contracts and salary slips.
