Migrant Fishermen Forced to Stay Aboard Vessels During Typhoon

FISHERIES ASSOCIATIONS and shipowners in Pingtung and Kaohsiung have been criticized after Typhoon Krathom hit Taiwan. Namely, a number of Indonesian migrant fishermen were ordered by shipowners to stay onboard ships during the typhoon in order to prevent the mooring lines that connect ships to the harbor from breaking, and the ships from drifting out to sea as a result.
