An Easter Island fisherman is calling on the New Zealand government to help protect the Rapa Nui fishery, which he says is being plundered by foreign fishing vessels.<\/p>\n

Kuchy Pakarati is part of a Rapa Nui delegation to New Zealand raising awareness about exploitation of the Chilean territory’s fish stocks.<\/p>\n

He says over-fishing is starting to affect the islanders’ traditional way of life.<\/p>\n

Mr Pakarati says that the Chilean Government has limited resources to patrol their waters, and Rapa Nui people are looking for help internationally.<\/p>\n

He says traditional methods of conserving fish stocks are being violated with foreign fishers showing blatant disregard for locals who depend on the ocean to sustain them.<\/p>\n
