Database of fishing vessels and companies engaged in Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) fishing.

Bhineka

Name:	Bhineka ()
Previous Name(s):
Blacklisted In:	IATTC Reason for blacklisting: Fish laundering Notes provide substantial evidence of covering up for illegal activity and engaging in fraud with respect to government documents (fudging vessel names, fishing areas, log books). Document from IATTC lists all of these vessels (above) as examples of vessels engaging in fish laundering activities by fudging their documents (changing vessel names, fishing areas, etc.). Some vessels listed are the vessels that actually caught the fish, some are the vessels that were reported as catching the fish in the fish laundering scheme. All have examples of misreporting of fishing. Source of IUU information: IATTC - Joint Working Group On Fishing By Non-Parties 4TH Meeting Lanzarotte(Spain) 16 June 2005 JWG-4-INFa: Information paper on problematic fishing activities by Chinese Taipei’s tuna fishing vessels http://www.iattc.org/PDFFiles2/JWG-4-Minutes-Jun-05.pdf
Documents:
Notes:	28 Large Scale Tuna Longline Fishing Vessels (LSTLVs) submitted to the Japanese authority false information on fishing areas (e.g. eastern Pacific -> western central Pacific), vessels names (e.g. IUU LSTLVs -> Chinese Taipei’s licensed LSTLVs, or LSTLV not authorized to fish for bigeye tuna -> those authorized) and/or transshipment positions and dates (e.g. at-sea -> in-ports). Two logbooks (true and false) and other evidences collected onboard the cargo vessel disclosed an organized operation that produced all the false information under the instruction from owners of the involved LSTLVs and operator of the cargo vessel.
