  At about 7 o'clock that day, while patrolling the Luojing Ore Terminal, the patrol police discovered that a boarding officer on an international ship, Zhai, did not hold a valid boarding document. After investigation, it was found that Zhai was a staff member of a certain shipping company and was not usually responsible for boarding foreign ships. However, due to manpower shortages during the Spring Festival holiday, the company sent him to see how a certain foreign ship was loading goods. Unexpectedly, Zhai was lucky and thought that during the Spring Festival, the border inspection police would be immersed in the joyful atmosphere of the New Year and would relax their vigilance and not enforce the law seriously. Therefore, he sneaked onto an international ship to inspect the cargo without completing the border inspection boarding procedures. As a result, he was inspected. The police found it on the spot. Because his behavior of boarding the ship without authorization constituted a violation, according to the relevant provisions of the "Exit and Entry Administration Law of the People's Republic of China", Wusong Border Inspection Station fined Zhai a 1,500 yuan.

  Coincidentally, on February 9, the patrol police at Wusong Border Inspection Station also investigated and punished an undocumented person boarding the ship during a routine boarding inspection of an international ship docked at Luofen Pier. At 7:50 that day, the patrol police inspected all the boarding personnel of the foreign ship one by one and found that one operator did not hold a valid boarding certificate. After investigation, it was found that the person was an employee of a certain labor force. Because the company's staff responsible for handling the immigration and boarding procedures mistakenly believed that the "Hong Kong, China" registered ship was not an international ship, they did not apply for the immigration and boarding procedures. Wusong Border Inspection Station conducted publicity and education on laws and regulations for the undocumented person who boarded the ship, and punished him in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Exit and Entry Administration Law of the People's Republic of China.

  Wusong Border Inspection Station reminds boarding personnel that according to Article 54 of the "Exit and Entry Administration Law of the People's Republic of China", persons who need to board or disembark foreign ships for loading and unloading, maintenance operations, visits, etc. should report to the Entry-Exit Border Control The inspection agency applies for boarding documents. At the same time, according to Article 82 of the Law, if any of the following circumstances occurs, a warning may be given and a fine of not more than 2,000 yuan may be imposed: (1) Disrupting the management order of the port’s restricted area; (2) Foreign crew members and their accompanying persons Family members who have not gone through temporary entry procedures to land; (3) who have boarded and disembarked from foreign ships without applying for boarding documents. Anyone who violates the first paragraph of the preceding paragraph and the circumstances are serious may be detained for not less than five days but not more than ten days. Ignorance is no excuse for breaking the law, and luck will eventually escape the eyes of the law. I hope all passengers onboard will strictly abide by laws and regulations and live a peaceful and happy Chinese New Year. (over)
