On July 7th, the Hong Kong "South China Morning Post" website reported on July 6th that "The Endless Needs of Chinese Targets Funding Terrorism in Africa and the Middle East" reported that the endless demand for Chinese teeth has fueled Africa. Violent bloodshed in various parts of the Middle East, Al-Shabaab and the notorious radical organizations such as the Lord’s Resistance Army use this “white gold†as an important source of funding. On May 15, 2014, the Hong Kong SAR Government launched the "Destruction of the Improvisation of Ivory". According to reports, the involvement of such organizations in the illegal ivory trade has made politicians and activists increasingly see this as a threat to national security, not just animal protection. The United Nations Environment Program recently released a report saying that the Holy Resistance Army earned between $4 million and $12 million a year from ivory smuggling. The head of the organization, Joseph Kony, was accused of war crimes by the International Criminal Court and was pursued in Uganda. Andrea Krosta, executive director of the Alliance for the Protection of Elephants, said that ivory, most of which eventually appeared in Hong Kong and the mainland market, provided these terrorist organizations with a large amount of dollars to fund radical activities. Krostar said: "People must realize that behind a simple ivory ornament, there is a series of bloody and sin hidden." Krosta participated in a secret investigation of this illegal trade for 18 months. . According to reports, China is the world's largest ivory consumer market, and many ivory products are transited in Hong Kong before entering the mainland. It is estimated that illegal ivory products destined for the Chinese market account for 60% to 90% of the total supply leaving Africa. The International Action against Wildlife Crime, Cobra II, launched earlier in 2014, found that of the 350 cases investigated, 200 involved China. According to reports, in the past four years, the price of ivory in the Chinese market has doubled to 2,100 US dollars per kilogram, making the increasingly rare ivory a considerable source of income for terrorist organizations and militant groups. One of the most rigorous organizations is the Al-Shabaab in Somalia. The organization has created a series of killings, including the assassination of a Somali parliament on the 3rd and the attack on a shopping mall in Nairobi in September 2013, killing 67 people. According to the report, unlike the Jakarta militias, which actively kill elephants, take the ivory, and the Sudanese Jajaweed militia, Al-Shabaab has positioned itself as a middleman and buyer. Klosta said that after receiving the order, Al-Shabaab will launch its network in Kenya and Somalia to obtain a shipment, and then use its smuggling expertise to send the ivory to Mobassa or Dar es Salaam. On the boat. Krosta said that they have the ability to buy 1 to 3 tons of ivory per month and then sell it, get huge profits from it, and then use the money to buy weapons. When the State party to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora has recently met in Geneva, this issue may arise on the agenda and the possibility of implementing a legally ivory for countries such as China and many African countries that support the ivory trade. The decision mechanism of the channel. According to reports, in 1999 and 2008, China was granted a one-time legal purchase of a batch of ivory. However, activists claim that ivory traders are mixing illegal smuggling ivory into money-laundering into a much smaller legal market. The African elephant faces the fate of extinction in 10 years, and discussions are becoming more and more critical. The Hong Kong Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department released data that in 2013, Hong Kong confiscated ivory was 8041 kilograms, the largest in history, an increase of 43% and 300% respectively compared to 2012 and 2003. According to reports, a spokesman for the Customs and Excise Department said that the Customs will maintain close liaison with overseas and mainland law enforcement agencies to prevent smuggling.
