SYNOPSIS
For years, the blue boats, illegal fishing boats from Vietnam, invaded the Pacific… Who were these illegal fishermen called new pirates of the Pacific? Why did they come so far from their coasts to practice illegal fishing? What is the impact of this fishing in the Pacific basin? Why is Vietnam putting the blame on China? What are the stakes of the exploitation of sea resources in South East Asia and South Pacific?
