"Bar codes on pet food in some European countries enable far-flung consumers to track Thai-exported seafood to its onshore processing facilities, where it was canned or otherwise packaged."
I'd be one of those far-flung consumers if I was given the choice? I will read tuna cans more carefully.
Two things that would improve the plight of these people:
1) fish origin labelling - which has massive benefits of other types. Currently there just isn't enough 'look through' to enable consumers to determine the source of seafood products.
2) a more developed economy in Cambodia and other places, so that nobody turns to people smugglers in desperation.
