the travel restrictions have only added to that issue we've last year the imo in the international labor organization aiello saw nearly doubling of the abandonment cases reported we're on track for another record year and the pandemic has definitely contributed to that for a number of different reasons. why calling the the crew leave the ship then and to see to the end is legally for their salaries why they got to remain on the ships it seems from what some of them are saying they feel they both remain on the ships if they physically get off and they lose the money well it's it becomes an issue of jurisdiction for them if if you have a seafarer that's and. an indian or filipino seafarer that's on a ship that's been abandoned in africa it becomes much more difficult for them to gain access to the courts now that there are possibilities for them to get legal assistance within the country that has jurisdiction over the ship but that can often be difficult and seafarers i think are wary of that they would rather have the money in hand. so how they likely to get the money in hand even if the ships is sold
