Muro-ami fishing

[xianpen]

hi. i'm doing a research on whether muro ami fishing is still happening to this day. if there's anyone out there who can give me good leads to this? my interest really is on the employ of children/minors for commercial fishing. help, anyone? just send me an email for those who would have really specific details that can only be pursued covertly. thanks!

Welcome on the forum Xianpen (sounds Chinese. Is it ?).
I hope you will get the answers you're looking for.
I can't answer you on that as I even don't know what it is (have to look on Google !).

Big muro ami fishing company they are recruiting people even under age boys fishing in the ocean for even years(away from the family).when they come back home their skin become so dark and hair turn to golden color.They are so happy to bring few thousands pesos (for 2-3 years working in the ocean).this is even so controversial ….child labor and slavery.Some just died in the ship and the body not been returned to the family.I knew some boys in our village working in this kind of fishing.

Jellyfish,
Im no chinese, but Xian is. It is a province in China where the terra cotta warriors were unearthed and my visit there gave me the pleasure of being awed by what is so far considered as man's greatest archeological find. And ~pen speaks of my profession.

daffs,
Thanks for giving me hope that this story is still alive. While I have hoped that muro ami fishing ceased when the ban was raised some time ago, I still wanted my story to understand why it has stayed. So a good case study should help tell the storify the problem of child labor and poverty. Hope you can send me a private message how you can lead me to those boys in your village working in this kind of fishing as well as walk me thru those "big fishing companies" that hire young boys for this job.
