Sorry, for my strong language but I´ve just been reading about this:
http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/extinction-countdown/2012/01/17/manta-rays-endangered-by-sudden-demand-from-chinese-medicine/
The articles picture was actually taken in Labuhan Haji.
Luckily, during my travel to Labuhan Haji in eastern Lombok, a famous
fishing port no Manta Rays where pulled from the sea to slaughter.
Nevertheless chinese markets suddenly demand Manta Rays for traditional
medicine - how stupid is that??? This has to stop!
