Plunder in Siam

Synopsis

In the scenic Gulf of Siam, off the Cambodian coast, we find tiny Koh Sdach, “King’s Island”. Following the Khmer Rouge’s genocide, 600 families came here to live on its shores, fishing to survive. For the past few years, they have suffered dramatically due to the plundering of their waters by immense trawlers under the Thai flag that overfish the archipelago in violation of Cambodian law. However, certain governments seem to be profiting from the situation.
