Sea pirates seemed to be brave robbers and fearless adventurers in children's books. pirate attacks in the modern world are made by dangerous criminals who become more and more insolent. There were 325 reported pirate attacks worldwide in 2004 and 445 attacks a year earlier. Experts explain the decrease if activation of patrolling the coasts of Malaysia and Indonesia.
The Pirate attacks are more cruel the Strait of Malacca between Indonesia and Malaysia is a long and narrow and busy. Representing over a quarter of the worldwide volume of cargo and one quarter of all pirate attacks. Decisive action is needed by Governments in the region. Then, the case of hacker attacks began to increase again. International Maritime Bureau (IMB) reported that the number of vessels attacked by pirates in the blue water has increased by 10% in 2007 over the previous year. 263 pirate attacks were recorded in 2007 against 239 in 2006. This is mainly due to incidents of pirate attacks off the coast of East and West Africa cental. The number of pirate attacks in the Central African coast 10-31, West Africa – 12-42. The number of all time was 154 people hostage near Somali coast. IBM says that piracy became profitable business for people in poor African countries. Other hotspots are the west coast of Asia and the South China Sea. The reports of pirate attacks in the Middle East, Africa the waters of the East Indies, South America are freqient latest. Pirate attacks are accompanied by violence more often, experts indicate. Director of the IMB called most cases the vandalism of the Navy. 64 people were killed or injured in 2007, while 17 people suffered in 2005. International Maritime Bureau has warned, in particular, the crews of vessels using the roads on the coast of West Africa. They should be extremely cautious with fishing boats search help.
Several pirates Pirates Attack ships sail the seas in boats with powerful engines engine and the first attack meeting decent research vessel that offers opportunity. Pirate aboard this ship with bamboo sticks and strings. small boats and yachts are also suffering attacks by hackers. 53 Peter Blake, famous explorer and Greenpeace activist, was murdered in December 2001 at the Shoreline Brazil, during an attack piratic. Attacks come from large commercial vessels as well, but more rare. They are the most attractive target for hackers. IMB Director Captain Mukundan said: "These operations are very difficult, three-four ships involved. The attack was made of them. Hackers are generally well prepared physically and quite ruthless in pursuing their objectives. "Responsibility for these attacks has been the Indonesian rebels in the past, but are not considered the main culprits now." pirate attacks difficult financed by organized crime, with groups that have sufficient resources, – Captain Pottengal Mukundan said. – They have networks that sell seized property, and places where you can take as hostage the crew members of stealing. "In a number of cases of pirates killed along with his crew and took over the management Full vessels themselves.
Pirates attack a tanker in 1998 in the South China Sea captured the tanker Petro Ranger and sailors cleaning to teach them to steer. Then he forced one of the hostages to write a new name on the face and changed the flag of Singapore to a Honduran. The tanker moved a little further from the China Sea, and the spilled oil to another vessel. And when the ship was ready for the record (which would allow pirates to sell 16 billion), members of the crew was able to inform the Chinese authorities.
Anti-piracy experts say anti piracy laws "are good, the problem is that poorly run. A license to drive a ship that costs money both in poor countries. The authorities in ports young children frequently do not mark any registration document with the same care as they should. Stolen comes with new "passports" practically evaporate and boats ghosts.
Regional problems, politics and relationships, often interfere in the business. As director of the IMB, said, border guards Indonesia and Malaysia, for example, does not operate in the territorial waters of each other, even if the suspects persecution. "It makes the game of Pirates – Captain Mukundan said. – The action against pirates are not very effective, they feel safe, safer and more about their strengths. It is important that the mechanism involves the right steps to authenticate performers of pirate attacks and punish them by law.
