- Labor & Human Rights
- From 2017-2020, crew from the Jing Yuan 618 reported human rights abuses on board, including: insufficient and inappropriate food and drinking water, overloaded working hours, deduction, not receiving guaranteed money, and discriminations.
- Fishing
- In 2017, crew from the Jing Yuan 618 reported the vessel engaged in catching sharks, catching seals, and fishing in a prohibited zone.
- AIS Darkness
- Since August 2019, the Jing Yuan 618 has disabled its AISfor at least 2,017 hours (84 days). These instances ofAISdarkness occurred across the Northwestern Pacific Ocean. This matters because so-called “AIS darkness” is a likely indicator of criminal activity at sea, including illegal fishing, smuggling, and sanctions evasion.
