or the basic building of fish, the fishing industry has not changed that by globalization or industrialization. this unit fishing has become difficult for these traditional fishermen hold on. one of them, what are we? we're into a station. competition is fierce. the sale side by side with industrial colors, the opinions and asians are in publishing africa, they're stealing our african fish. we can fix it through expert, the west africa ridge facing a catastrophe, which is a fishing related social problems. unemployment jane,
11:17 am
which we do with the the fishing industry is facing of historic prices style, not only fish, docs are effective, but also in nutrition. and that has the consequences for africa. the lovely, with the 2 thirds of the syndicate least population live below the poverty line, where people need jobs to stay as well, or at least of, of shipping their own destiny. more than 32000 africans reach the canary islands by the, by the lake called the dog. more and more people are setting sail to seek their fortunes on the other side at the atlanta. the of the fish
11:18 am
11:19 am
carpenters boat repairmen. a nation of fishermen. millions of senegalese have traditionally lived from fishing, the countries expanding deserts or driving many people to the coast where they hoped to work in fishing. the catch supplies, the entire country was pro team on what was once thought to be an infinite resource has become increasingly scarce that i live up. if we can do for you, ma'am, let me know. but you didn't even used to be able to estimate the number of fish. the fisherman never came home with an empty natural confidence. for a long time,
11:20 am
fisherman couldn't even choose which species they wanted to catch. is that, but that has changed completely. the stocks are collapsing like that species are dying out. should i put them? this is the 1st time i've seen it per rogues on sale. instead of going for sale and of on the welfare mind excel. joseph fisher. my name is monique sans. i'm a fisherman who is you have 2 books that we take out to see every day i meant enough or number. i used to make a good living, but that's over now. village. so we have to borrow the mans fuel and money to be insulated on the difficulties did the, the to say, sometimes you come back and have trouble paying it back. sometimes where it see for up to 20 days or a month in cash and nothing. we just end up in data,
11:21 am
that's what the consequences of this crisis can be filled up and down the senegalese coast. okay . and then you have on your well, you definitely know we believe the fisher supplied by god and will never run out in front of it. have to get a new company, but over the last 30 years we have noticed fewer and fewer fish every year. as commodities. always to blame how many definitely and so at the end. but the foreign ships are to blame about the evening going to a new, another station our coast in our territory, the by the broken into the, you know, the digit pass code you live in, catch small fish like sardines, is it your? no, no. but if you don't have my guiding that you find the next, then you go up into a new model or not even enough resources for our own personal good sense of what
11:22 am
happened with that. it was a problem. foreign fishing fleets, or shamelessly plundering the waters of the atlantic. how has sent a goal once the country with a seemingly endless supply of fish been robbed of its greatest resource? the this fatal development began at the end of the 1970s, the, under the pretext of securing supplies for its own population. europe began fishing, bountiful african waters, the
11:23 am
only feet. look in your 1st fisheries agreement, same between the european community and center. go under the little may convention, got a mom older that goes on the shoulder. look. the plundering of senegalese waters began with a handshake. the the fishing agreements allowed european vessels to fish and senegalese waters and the financial compensation unclear. despite repeated requests from local fishermen, the contents of the agreements has never been made public or the catches were spectacular. in the 1980s. european trousers covered by the treaties were soon joined by other ships wanting a piece of the bounty. within just a few years,
11:24 am
ships from all over were soon trolling west african waters. the rate on the atlantic had begun the, the trawlers dragged heavy nets across the sea, but in the process they destroyed underwater flora and fauna. the senegalese fishermen watched helplessly as the stops were, plundered their voice could not be heard in the face of the army of industrial fishing, destroy everything such and then pro 80 percent of their catch back into the c. i'm at the equally pacific they were able to fish over $6000.00 tons per day. and one week they called as much as traditional fisheries didn't one year to be the but they were factory ships. the
11:25 am
boat to is everything they caught was processed directly on the boat. in the back of the wilderness, senegalese presidents fraternize with european leaders. the ocean continued to be plundered in the 2 thousands. the situation became increasingly critical for the fishermen. but they were still unable to make their voices heard. the senegalese government did not want to reverse the fishing really. so whenever the we experience banking crises, us and people's livelihoods were at risk, there were serious problems. people died, but we couldn't talk to our authorities. they were only interested in the money
11:26 am
while we were interested in the fish. by 2011, they had had enough. the fisherman's angry erupt. it they decided to stand together against the government of duty, won a president and his 2nd term of office based competition from mackie salt, who promised to rid senegalese waters of foreign ships. the vale knew that there are no more big fish in this country. and at this rate, it will be no more efficient, send it all in 2 years. we're not going into more slogan for the 2012 presidential elections was that no fisherman in senegal would vote for the current regime which had signed the fisheries agreements with europe. our slogan was my vote and my future will compute . after election results rolled in on march 25th 2012 mackey solved became
11:27 am
president of the republic of senegal. i shall come back to it. my dear cametrius seems to me, i am the president of all synagogue least there are no differences between you. ok, a victory for the fisherman. dollars in clear the output video was all so as you there is an urgent need for action and fishery. essentially, i am determined to review the conditions we're issuing fishing licenses and to act against of hiring ships that plunder. our strong skills keeps the notice of value. mackey saw suspended the agreements with europe. european vessels were no longer allowed to fish in senegalese waters. when the i'd be, we managed to abolish the agreement. we made it all the way to the european union. we fought hard fucking the fishermen, we gained the
11:28 am
and 2 years later in 2014 senegal site, a new fishing treaty with the european union this time with their conditions. so they pay me a call. these are the 1st agreements following our new common fishing policy, which so the treaties were transparent and restricted the authorization of european vessels to areas that the senegalese did not cover such as to and efficient were the problem solved the the reality behind the agreements and the political speeches was more complex. this apparent victory for the senegalese fishermen did not, and the rate on the atlantic loopholes allowed trawlers to navigate around the
11:29 am
restrictions. so in the years, 2000 mid 2000, there was a big campaign into and i got to stop deficient agreement. so that happened. the government apparently understood that it was the problem for the fisherman and decided not to renew the agreement to agreement was stopped. so at that time, the fishermen were really happy, they sold that as a big victory. but we continued documenting was happening with the european investors and european suites. and what we saw is that just after the time when the agreement was stopped, said for when i see several, several dozens of these addresses just couldn't find a way to access any of these waters because it wasn't more agreement. and so the re flag to, to send a got so unfortunately the nice words, if you like, all of this, think of these government of those days, citing when we stop g agreement because there's too much pressure on our resources
11:30 am
. these nice words were not followed the practice of senegal ization stems from a legal loophole that allows for and ships to fly the senegalese flag on paper. the companies that own the ships are 51 percent senegalese but in reality they were strong man hiding owners from other countries. the fraud allows foreign ships to operate in senegalese waters as if they were at home the city. but okay, so by then ships are stationed and darker if they arrive in the car in 24 hours later, the fisher sent the china or your last you little hope followed by disillusionment. as to why ltd definetly are familiar
11:31 am
with cynical ization of above. i can't talk about q one u as if it were a senegalese ship to send it the research, the owner of the shifting the but you will see that it's chinese that you have to call you that way continues to ship travel this route after i left here happened to disappear, the signal can no longer be seen from here. if it breaks off. so something is wrong . this means the ship was fishing in this area. so the ministry of fisheries must know that they remain silent for the time of the librium is what it up bishop does or not. you know, the importance of traditional fishing cannot be overlooked. to get the point of view. if you look at the number of troops and their primary contribution to food security as good as indigo, i think we've tried the last incident, though. they play a certain way, but it's not enough. we have to admit that for
11:32 am
a lot of gwinnett county, we will continue to work to secure our resources for them so that they of course, noticed that our ships, the escape, our controls keep this up, not confident. but we did take the most of the ships to legally enter our national watchers. i will do these a uh, this is on down those. oh, it's automatic. might detected the while the for and ships flying, the senegalese flag use legal loopholes. others have chosen to ignore the law altogether. many foreign ships never bother to obtain a permit. they shamelessly plunder the waters in senegal and elsewhere in africa against the law the,
11:33 am
the russian ship, a lake, and a general is a good example of, of the illegal fishing practices uncovered by green peace activists. not only was the ship operating without any authorization, but it also attempted to conceal its name under tarps. a practice prohibited under maritime law. after his election in 2012 mackey sole and his government began to crack down on these ocean plunderers. 3 legs made the noise it onto the de the leg 91 of as in the hands of the senegalese government invested in his being monitored by the national maybe not police. it lies on that. i'm really not sure about we have said commando. so a forced them to return, it is already here driven. you see today guys they're doing is all sending all loses 100. 15000000000. see if i frank see every year from illegal fishing, the fish the money to elicit senegal and wins some battles.
11:34 am
but the pirates ships are so numerous that it seems impossible to win the fisheries war. the authorities are no match for the thieves. and as has been the case for decades, senegalese fishermen feel they are being left to deal with the disaster on their own. fish ducks continue to collapse, the things could hardly get any worse for senegalese fishermen. but they do. in recent decades, china has become the undisputed leader in global fishing the
11:35 am
. so today, the largest share of fishing vessels off the coast of west africa is the, it's the chinese fleet. so in, in 2012, there was a, a famous speech by then president who is in town, and he called for building china into a maritime great power. and right after that speech in 2013, the state council elevated the chinese fishing industry to a strategic industry. chinese ships have penetrated the world's richest fishing waters, including near west africa. initial motivation really was food security at that time. you know, china was worried about having enough food to feed this population. and then as time went on, the motivation became more economic interests. there's wanting their companies to make more money. the protocol they publish in all the way of the chinese people is a message of health plan which says that under development is not an inevitable fate miles. in fact, i need to, to modify that china's development and will bring more opportunities to africa,
11:36 am
can go to africa's development will bring new life china us developing its own way to the fact that the chinese fleet has been supported by a lot of subsidies from the chinese government in order to achieve these aims and you know, those subsidies have, have risen overtime and really indicate some of the strength of support for the fleets and how much you know, important. so the chinese place on this, the china is doing today what europe did in the past. like europe, it invokes food security when it sends its subsidized fishing boats out into the world. and like europe, it uses troll nets that are particularly destructive the. but i'm like europe, there was never beneficiaries agreements between senegal and china. the,
11:37 am
the senegalese government is struggling to ban illegal fishing and over fishing and its waters it appears helpless, but also compliant in the face of the plundering of its marine wells, which hurts its entire population. the senegalese fishermen themselves must take their fate into their own hands and fight for their rights. sometimes by drastic means the judge i may eat foot. i have never shied away from representing the interests of fishermen. but i've never shied away from defending the interests of the people of your wi fi you. i never thought about what might happen to me. one day i said to the fisherman, able to listen when the state won't solve the problem with this, if it's up to us to sorted out, because we're the ones under attack, when we surrounded the ship, climbed onto the deck, what we can pull down the captive in this chinese man,
11:38 am
there were 5 of them and we beat them up. then we took the, kept him back to my house. so now i'm going to kidnapped him up. if someone hits you on the right to get up, so you can't turn the other one that you have to hit back. but just as hard the, the glazes, when you see this unfair competition, the huge ships we'll behemoths, which is next to them for small per rugs. when they see the small boat, they don't, but you're not careful the crash into your apartment. i want to see the fisherman doesn't get out of the way you could die.
11:39 am
the fisherman fight with everything at their disposal. the social media is full of incriminating video footage of a legal foreign trawlers filmed on the seemingly lawless ocean. their lives are regularly in danger. sometimes local sea fares, work a board foreign ships and are outraged by what they see when we get another. but the nice is me is that there are black people and most of the boots i'm getting hurt. so want to see the other day that the crews don't agree with what's happening. it's not their fault. even those who work on these boots don't like the way things are going. but everyone use a jump to feed their families. because of these chinese bastards were constantly posting on social media on facebook, instagram,
11:40 am
and once i looked up the see for yourself on their plundering are fish dogs. this is plundering. this is quite the you don't do shipment and we will months. so that's why we want to give anyone to help you follow the boat for 12 kilometers because it left with our net. a chinese captain took an iron bar. i'm going to have all the chinese armed themselves and they showed it as and threatened us. that's when i realized that there from here to hurt us. if we got any closer to the boat. at some point they pulled us a hose and sprays my companions with cold water. they did that for quite a while and then they sprayed us with acid then yeah, i could dig to eventually filled up a lot with acid and diesel, set it on fire and threw sent me, jumped into the sea food. good duncan gave him the ferns and my legs and face resorted. my stomach was burnt. i had burned all over. i have
11:41 am
scars all over my body. you little. that's why we don't like the chinese. well, i was in front of me and i feel like the my name is come them again for i've been working in the pool for 10 years. i knew nothing but this hard work. is that the for bring me the phone? i want to share the photo of appetite before them. i'm glad. yeah. his name is,
11:42 am
i'm an idea and he is a good son. a son who loves his mother would be i was somebody used to say to his friends, when will i be able to help my mother make it for, for the one day he got up in the morning a model and when he was at school, he noticed my situation a little he decided to drop out of school, the young eck or cold me later and just said, mom, i am in nor okay to go. i said to him, please come back. i want to see you on the models. he replied to the, do i? no, ma'am. i won't come home empty handed. ma'am, you fault for us. what was it? you've been tired for a long time? the waveform i have held onto my face since the accident. i know that to go to gifts and takes offense. i put myself completely and got behind the out of us. come a long way my way, but they need to see how the, the, the
11:43 am
foreign fishing fleets aren't solely responsible for sending goals. fishing, lowes, a new threat has arisen for many of the west african countries. the death blow for millions of women and men who live and rely on fish, fish meals factories to this big default of official fish mean is really relatively new. incentive go the more t. yeah. it's in the last 15 years or so. but that's really easy. factor which i would say is not leading to the collapse of the fishery. the,
11:44 am
it's not only the industrial for invest of the 2 that also some periods off fishing for fish, me the it's a kind of a story of enslavement to new ways. because at 1st, the 1st big company will give a good price of efficient and it will even pre finance the next fishing trip, which for freshman is really important. mean, you're the newman then when you don't know which one the someone comes and say, okay, i'll pay you to more like pay for the fuel rude, but you're given your fish. and then you see that the price starts to decrease. so after 6 months, 9 months, the fisherman will be paid less than and for the beginning, but the still applies to give you fish to the fish manufacturing. the number of
11:45 am
factories along the west african coast has multiply it in recent years. the process huge quantities of fish into fish male which is then exported to europe and asia the 1st victims, lots and lots of officials. but the women, these processes, because they are the one that's all deprived of room material to process the other one you have to watch, washed the fishes uh, going and selling the fish to the fish manufactory rather than coming and selling it to the we've been based drying tables are normally covered with fish in the high season, but today they are almost empty to thousands of women were employed here to smoke or dry fish. now they have no jobs. the unions are militantly organizing to draw the attention of authorities to the tragic situation of the women
11:46 am
processing fish salvas outside. let's hope it goes well. well, the ministries be represented with the government be there to pick demonstration. okay, and the care fishing authorities will be there. the media that's i mean will send it out to me unless i'm seeing the bid up with the national center piece of women. not the main stay of the family in senegal, the main pen, there was the population that we give everything we in this to the household to our
11:47 am
children, husbands. and then also, if we didn't raise our voices, if we didn't, the mom, the thirty's don't the establishment of fish, male factories, special or the women's job in fish processing will eventually disappear for it's already happening. it's a fit for me. after a month, i'm sick, the last thing you want me to stay on the inspection is my, you know, you are the representative of the minister for fisheries and the marine economy please. and tell them in the stuff that the files have been sitting in draughts with too long from that they are taking too long to process. and that is really rare in bolton has to be recognized. if you look closely there is not a single woman helsing making decisions. although we bind the fish on the beaches and process it and then they took the mock in the way
11:48 am
the families with fits would have through the mail fisherman, women are the next victims of the collapse of the fishing industry, the family and social balance of an entire nation has been shaken to please, as into putting deposits on this apiece, plus condition meals. factories are destructive because they take away women's jobs and they deprived the population in the interior of the country of parts with their food base with smoked fish or not getting all the fish that used to be processed, smoked and dry to be sold in senegal. and west africa and the guys and i sent the factories to produce fish, meals, of an exported to europe or asia, or next, but also another one of the the fish exported from senegal and other countries does not feed people in europe and asia feeds their farm animals
11:49 am
the annual diet of around 30000000 people in west africa disappears into the stomachs of cattle, pigs, chickens, and salmon. if the true is being threatened by the fact that the fish may factories pumping on the fish coming out of the sea, full precision into fish means for coming to china for coming to no way to feed some of this. we eat on a sunday lunchtime, then it is really something that is going to literally killed the sector, but really a very bad impact on the populations. i big about finding the possible. yeah. 5, there's no such thing as sustainable fish, and having to be in pasadena ability does not go hand in hand with the issue of factories or, or contradictory godfrey. and another point of office cynical, subsidize is fishing. what are examples? and i'll put the price of fuel is reduced, sherman can continue to sell fish as it pops up in this fisherman put on the politics. the senegalese phase of our sales are to officially all factory people exported to europe. o. d,
11:50 am
u repeating some and the feeds europeans who bought movies. senegalese subsidies are helping feed europeans as well as well. can i this, despite the fact that the senate go as a country that depends on your opinion development. a autograph would be the in some coastal villages, the age pyramid is losing its base to similar to countries at war. men between the ages of 15 and 35 are rare. even though peace reigns in senegal,
11:51 am
the missing have left in search of a better life. the, the annual i'm, you know, they shipped the news from me until i got to my mother's house, several of the another glad to do that. i received a phone call and they told me that my son had died in need of that. so i was told on the 9th storage on social media, the manual, it's very painful to find out about your son's death like that to me. it's very painful for me to breaking it on the supplies the just, but it's not only deficient, it's disappearing. but also some of the senegalese people, this has consequences for africa,
11:52 am
which would be let me just say that initially to achieve chest, the mediterranean is now a graveyard met. that should be this se. usually mine which was a sea of civilization screw, has unfortunately become a graveyard for all our young people do believe that the future lies and elsewhere, maybe the migration a don't cause. so you have the paradox of the african unit, or the kaufman's most important asset. the present for disappointing them yet they do not believe in themselves and in their future here. also problem choose is they want to products. there are no many microphones crossing the see to us. these people are young, desperate to take great risk for the uncertain chance with a better life, the or the
