North Koreans on Chinese Tuna Boats Boost Revenue for Kim Jong-un

In recent years, there has been a noticeable increase in the number of North Korean workers being sent to work on Chinese tuna boats. This move has been made in an effort to boost revenue for North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, who is facing economic sanctions and isolation from the international community.

The North Korean workers, who are often sent to work on these boats under harsh conditions and for little pay, are believed to be generating significant revenue for the regime. It is estimated that each worker can bring in thousands of dollars in profits for the North Korean government.

The workers are typically sent to China through a complex network of intermediaries and brokers, who arrange for their placement on the tuna boats. Once on board, the workers are forced to endure grueling hours and dangerous conditions, all in the name of generating revenue for the regime.

The use of North Korean workers on Chinese tuna boats is just one example of the lengths to which the regime will go to try and circumvent international sanctions and generate much-needed revenue. With the country facing a dire economic situation, Kim Jong-un is turning to any means necessary to keep the regime afloat.

Despite the risks and hardships faced by the workers, many are willing to take on these jobs in order to send money back to their families in North Korea. The promise of higher wages and the chance to improve their living conditions is often enough to entice them to take on these dangerous jobs.

The use of North Korean workers on Chinese tuna boats is a troubling development that highlights the desperate measures that the regime is willing to take in order to stay in power. As long as Kim Jong-un remains in control, it is likely that we will continue to see these kinds of exploitative practices being used to boost revenue for the regime.
