- To be honest, I'm pitying for these pirates. They borned in this country which took the piracy as the mainly living method. They had no choice. However, I hope them didn't kill people and just take their money, that's enough. Or they will be eliminated by troops of United Nations.

There were many hajacked ships even though foerign countries including China sent escort fleet to prevent piracy from happening.
