University of Auckland researchers have concluded that many Indonesian crew on Korean chartered fishing vessels in New Zealand waters are victims of human trafficking for forced labour.
That’s what Dr Christina Stringer, senior lecturer at the university’s Department of Management and International Business, told a meeting of Catholic Religious Against Human Trafficking at St Benedict’s church crypt, Newton, on July 25.
Dr Stringer and co-researcher Glenn Simmons had interviewed 76 Indonesian crew who had been aboard 12 Korean vessels from 1998 to 2011, as well as amassing thousands of documents.
