Ross Kemp: In Search Of Pirates in South East Asia (Episode 3) | Full Documentary | True Crime

For nearly 200 years the international piracy trade has flourished meaning insurance premiums have increased as well as the overall cost of goods being shipped overseas. The world has three piracy hotspots and now Ross is climbing aboard the HMS Northumberland to go in search of modern day Somali pirates in Somalia. Whilst patrolling, he looks to discover why piracy is on the increase, how it threatens global trade and the lives of mariners and also what's being done to stop it.
In this 3rd episode, Ross Kemp is hunting pirates around South East Asia.

Everyone: Trying to avoid pirates at all costs, sending out SOS signals in case they spot dubious ships and pretty much worried all the time in these waters. Ross Kemp: The pirates came from this island right here, so we'll fly to Singapore, take a boat south and hope we meet them.

They also turned 3 seas into landmasses and Crimea a sea? It's hilarious.

[@neurofiedyamato8763]

A landmass or water way existing there doesn't mean people of the past got it right on maps. Look at old maps of the world, they look way off. There's no way of getting a bird's eye view and knowing where each geographic location is relative to each other. People back then have no way of reliably measuring long distances. Information also traveled slowly and not particularly far, so while some may know the geography there, those making the map do not.

This is very old because most piracy has been eliminated in Somalia thanks to mercenaries hired by Ships.

It is pretty old, but the pirates are often hired by people who own the ships or shipments or politicians so one would think if it has stopped, it won't be long until we see a resurgence.

This documentary series is certainly awesome and informative, but Mr Kemp's correct pronunciation of the names of the places involved is simply icing on the cake. It's music to my ears to hear you use the "s" in Malaysia and Indonesia correctly. Heck, your way of pronouncing Kuala Lumpur is spot on, too. Keep up the great job, sir. 👌
