- text: State and federal lawmakers are promising to improve conditions for hundreds
of foreign fishermen working in Hawaii's commercial fleet, and at least one company
has already stopped buying fish from the boats following an Associated Press investigation
that found the men have been confined to vessels for years without basic labor
protections.Whole Foods halted buying seafood caught by foreign crew until it's
clear the men are treated fairly. On Sunday, the Hawaii Seafood Council said that
starting Oct. 1, the Honolulu Fish Auction will sell fish only from boats that
have adopted a new, standardized contract aimed at assuring no forced labor exists
on board.The AP report found commercial fishing boats in Honolulu were crewed
by men from impoverished Southeast Asia and Pacific Island nations who catch prized
swordfish, ahi tuna and other seafood sold at markets and upscale restaurants
across the country. A legal loophole allows them to work on the American-owned,
American-flagged boats without visas as long as they don't set foot on shore.
The system is facilitated by the U.S. Coast Guard and Customs and Border Protection.
While many men appreciate the jobs, which pay better than they could get back
home, the report revealed instances of human trafficking, tuberculosis and food
shortages. It also found some fishermen being forced to defecate

increase in international criminal organizations' involvement in trafficking,
and NGOs report young boys are coerced to sell drugs and guns. In a break with
common practice, some traffickers have recently allowed victims to keep their
passports, removing a common indicator of human trafficking in an attempt to avoid
detection. Many other traffickers continue to confiscate victims' passports and

in Cambodia assessed this form of trafficking was rising. Cambodian and Burmese
workers are increasingly unwilling to work in the Thai fishing industry due to
dangerous work conditions and isolation, which makes them more vulnerable to exploitation;
the Government of Thailand announced plans during the year to import Bangladeshi
workers to ill the labor shortage this has caused. During the year, therewere
reports that some Rohingya asylum seekers from Burma were smuggled into Thailand
en route to Malaysia and ultimately sold into forced labor, allegedly with the
assistance of Thai civilian and military officials.Observers noted that traffickers
(including labor brokers) who bring foreign victims into Thailand generally work
as individuals or in unorganized groups, while those who exploit Thai victims
abroad tend to be more organized. Labor brokers, largely unregulated, serve as
intermediaries between jobseekers and employers; some facilitate or engage in
human trafficking. Brokers are reportedly of both Thai and foreign origin and
work in networks, collaborating with employers and attimes with corrupt law enforcement
officials. Foreign migrants, members of ethnic minorities, and stateless persons
in Thailand are at the greatest risk of being trafficked, and they experience

onto Thai fishing vessels has risen to 230, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said
in a press statement released yesterday. The ministry confirmed that, following
an investigation by Indonesian authorities along with Cambodian Embassy personnel,
an additional 31 fishermen were rescued from Ambon Island over the last week,
adding to the 199 discovered last Friday. The men were reportedly trafficked to
work on the Thai vessels for years before Indonesian authorities managed to rescue
them.Ministry spokesman Koy Kuong said Cambodian officials visited the island
from May 30 to June 3 to check on the men's conditions, adding that the owner
of the Thai fishing boats have paid the workers their salary and have agreed to
pay for a charter flight from Ambon to Phnom Penh.They have agreed in principle,
and now they are processing the procedure to ensure that these people to return

# SetFit with sentence-transformers/paraphrase-mpnet-base-v2
This is a [SetFit](https://github.com/huggingface/setfit) model that can be used for Text Classification. This SetFit model uses [sentence-transformers/paraphrase-mpnet-base-v2](https://huggingface.co/sentence-transformers/paraphrase-mpnet-base-v2) as the Sentence Transformer embedding model. A [LogisticRegression](https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.linear_model.LogisticRegression.html) instance is used for classification.
The model has been trained using an efficient few-shot learning technique that involves:
1. Fine-tuning a [Sentence Transformer](https://www.sbert.net) with contrastive learning.
2. Training a classification head with features from the fine-tuned Sentence Transformer.

The Thai fishing industry is structurally dependent on unskilled workers, a result of a failure to invest in technology to increase labour productivity as well as an abundance of cheap migrant workers from the less-developed neighbours.At the same time, vessel operators face a chronic shortage of workers -- a deficit estimated by the National Fishing Association of Thailand (NFAT) to be as high as 50,000."Combined with economic pressure arising from the degradation of marine resources in the Thai exclusive economic zone (EEZ), these factors shape the prevalence of labour abuses and the use of trafficking, forced and bonded labour in the Thai fishing industry."As migrant workers from Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos and undeveloped rural regions of Thailand, particularly the Northeast, are trafficked through Indonesia, both countries must collaborate further to address abuses, said Mark Dia, Greenpeace\'s Regional Oceans Campaign coordinator for Southeast Asia.Greenpeace has worked with the Indonesian government on the matter while the Thai military government has already taken action to address chronic problems facing the fishing industry for many years'

In a DW interview, Fiona David, executive director of global research at the Walk Free Foundation, calls on the countries in the region to step up their efforts to combat the problem and put in place the mechanisms that would require businesses to focus on the issues of slavery and forced labor throughout their supply chains. DW: According to the 2016 Global Slavery Index, nearly two-thirds of modern slaves are living in Asian countries. What are the reasons behind the high prevalence of this phenomenon in the region? Fiona David: The Asia-Pacific is the most populous region in the world, and it is also well integrated into the global supply chains. We do estimate that about two-thirds of the nearly 46 million people trapped in slavery are in Asia. And we see all forms of modern slavery in the region, such as forced labor in brick kilns, child beggars in Afghanistan and India, bonded labor in the agricultural as well as garment sectors. Given its population size and integration into global value chains, the Asia-Pacific is a region where a lot of low cost labor is made available to produce the goods and services that we all consume.

In addition, there is the preparation and cooking of the fish once caught: gutting and singeing it when required, making a coal fire, building a bush oven, timing the bake, turning the fish, and finding leaves and bark from local trees to plate cooked fish (Toussaint 2010; Toussaint et al. 2005; Yu 2006). The eating and sharing of fish, enjoying its tastiness, or comparing the quality of one fish to another, marks the culmination of a good family day, a point I develop below. All of these activities, whether seen on their own as individual parts, or brought together as a whole, reveal their experiential importance to those families who are directly involved, as well"
