QUOTE(dEviLs @ Nov 5 2008, 12:50 PM) 2008/11/04 Just an update 10,000 smuggled turtle eggs seized BERNAMA SANDAKAN: The marine police have cracked their biggest case of turtle egg smuggling this year, with the seizure of some 10,000 eggs from the Philippines. Four smugglers were unloading the eggs, worth about RM28,000, from a speedboat in the Kampung Forest beach area on Sunday night when a team of policemen arrived at the scene at 8.15pm. On seeing the policemen, the smugglers panicked and escaped in the boat, leaving 20 sacks of eggs on the beach. Acting Sandakan marine police chief ASP Muhammad Sallam Spawi described the seizure as the biggest this year. He said marine police had increased operations to eradicate smuggling of the eggs and prevent its illegal sale in the district. "Initial investigations have revealed that a syndicate obtained the eggs from several islands in the Philippines. While the syndicate is masterminded by foreigners, the locals sell the eggs in Bandar Sandakan for as much as RM2.80 per piece." why are they so cruel They plan to rebury the eggs and try to hatch them ( Fingers very crossed ) !! Even mention in one of the local Chinese newspaper about how some of the officer ( Perikanan ) have kept some eggs in their store and after a few days turtles hatch out ( some miracale ) !!! LOL What are they thinking !! A remark from my friend !!! |

QUOTE(rafiqos @ Nov 6 2008, 09:14 PM) Reptiles' eggs dont store well !! Especially with rough handling and days since being laid !! The odds of hatching any from those 10k eggs is almost none !! But that will be the best way to cover their " tracks / sales " Since buried eggs can disappear ie dug up by predators .......etc or " nest site " cannot be found |

QUOTE(duhknight @ Nov 7 2008, 12:30 PM) well...at least they did their job...i mean...they could have taken th bribe...but instead of having done that...they played their part...now aint that professional? Did their job as in the Sabah Turtle eggs case ?? Lets do some maths !! Assume 10000 eggs sold for RM 2 ( cheaper price to speed sale ) a pc easily comes to RM 20 000 !! How much could those Four smugglers offer in term of bribe ?? RM 100 , 200 , 500 or even 1000 !! Now compare that !! |

QUOTE Just wondering why you all are so prejudice against the Malaysian enforcement officers QUOTE well...at least they did their job...i mean...they could have taken th bribe...but instead of having done that...they played their part...now aint that professional? if you had joined this community just one year earlier, you'd know better we do not judge solely on one particular case. just look at the way they handle their confiscated and 'rescued' animals... ever heard the story about the baby elephant that broke its feet and suffered under those irresponsible caretakers? ever read the news of snakes being sold by officers a day after it had been confiscated? ever check on the possibilities of why the whole colony of sumatran rhinos under their care perished? ever wondered why orchid collectors in Cameron got fined for collecting orchids in illegal logging areas while those that did the illegal logging had not been implicated at all? i could go on rambling all night long.. so, you judge yourself This post has been edited by camillenoir: Nov 7 2008, 09:13 PM |
