Chinese love to play the victim card in the Senkaku island dispute. But in the SC sea, they are rude and agressive, especially against Vietnam and Philippines.

Arrest those guys who shot at the Vietnamese boat

Chinese come with big guns. Big bully.

I think protesting at the embassies and massive propaganda will do the trick, internationalize the issue through media, Since China is a signatory of UNCLOS.

Chinese CCP is afraid of protests

Vietnam government is committed to a peaceful solution, and wishes international mediation, while China opposes any steps involving other nations and insists on bilateral negotiation.

Their strategy is clear: China wants to subjugate smaller and weaker nations by its overwhelming power. Its phrase of "a peaceful rise" is just a cheap rhetoric.

As for UNCLOS, China does not respect VN´s 200 nautical miles, but demands VN to respect its own. They are clown.

If VN government´s strategy of a peaceful approach fails, you will see massive protests in the country.

What ever you call them: they are all government controlled vessels. You play a policy of intimidation, just count the numbers of military drills you carry out in the SC sea.

As for China´s illegal fishing boats in our waters, don´t cry if we are going to act tough now.

 

[qinglong-china]

The boat went our seas and provoke, then portray himself as a victim. Too mean

Street protests are not welcome, neither in VN nor in China. BTW I can post here some pictures of Vietnamese protests in overseas, so you can enjoy.

"...
Vietnamese government adheres to the principle of good neighborhood, a policy of “16 chữ vàng, 4 tốt”, enunciated by PRC and Secretary General of Communist Party of China (CPC) Jiāng Zémín to the Vietnamese communist (CPV) leaders in 2000. As Vietnam and China share the same communist ideals and are led by the Communist Parties, Vietnam has accepted the principle of CPC being the big brother to CPV."

Its very common things, VN should familiar with this, Fishery ship 308 drivered VN QNg 96679(with 10 tons of illegal fishing tuna) at March 13, after Discourage invalid，1239 Enforcement vessel used water cannons.
VN Fishing boats should be careful, not catch fish at China's exclusive economic zone，
or call for help from VN navy or escape quickly

just another vietnam ccp propaganda.

LOL. A pot calling the kettle black. Didn't the article said that Paracel is China occupied territory.

Hoàng Sa (Paracels) islands were invaded by Chinese forces in 1974 and have been occupied ever since even though Vietnam has the legal and historical evidences of its sovereignty. China has refused to negociate the occupation.

Beside the point, Illegal fishing must be eradicated & I approve of the Chinese decision albeit a little to drastic for my taste. If you must know the Vietnamese (&other SEA countries) also have a habit of entering other country water.

Indonesia releases 33 Vietnamese Fishermen ahead of Lunar New Year - YouTube

Thirty-three Vietnamese fishermen detained for entering Indonesia’s territorial waters illegally will be released to enable them return home for the upcoming Tet (Lunar New Year) holidays, authorities in West Kalimanan Province have said.

The Vietnamese Embassy in Indonesia sent a working delegation to visit West Kalimanan from February 3-6.

The delegation asked the provincial authorities to work with the Vietnamese fishermen who’d been sentenced and imprisoned in Pontianak, the capital of West Kalimanan, on the basis of humanitarian considerations. The province was asked to consider releasing those who had behaved well under detention.

Cornelis M.H., Governor of West Kalimatan, praised the efforts of the Vietnamese delegation and said he would support expediting the work of relevant agencies to release another 15 fishermen soon.

According to West Kalimatan authorities, 54 Vietnamese fishing boats have been caught since 2009 and about 260 fishermen sentenced for violating territorial waters, and most of them were imprisoned in Pontianak.

GUANGZHOU, Aug. 10 (Xinhua) -- Ten Vietnamese fishermen were rescued Thursday after their boat ran aground near China's newly-founded city of Sansha in the South China Sea, China's maritime authorities said Friday.

The South China Sea Rescue Bureau said it received a report early Thursday morning that Vietnamese-flagged fishing boat QNG92443 ran aground in waters of the Xisha islands following an engine failure.

The ship was located at the Langhua Reef, about 60 nautical miles south of Yongxing Island, where the government seat of Sansha is stationed.

The bureau said it immediately dispatched a vehicle to the site and rescued 10 Vietnamese fishermen, who were found floating at sea on pontoons, at 3 p.m.

The fishermen have been sent to Yongxing Island, the bureau added.

China started forming the government of Sansha in mid-July. It is a prefecture-level city that administers the Xisha, Zhongsha and Nansha islands and the surrounding waters in the South China Sea.
Philippines arrests 12 Vietnamese fishermen
Philippines arrests 12 Vietnamese fishermen
MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Philippine officials say 12 Vietnamese fishermen have been arrested for poaching endangered marine turtles, black corals and reef fishes in southern Philippines waters.
Philippine fisheries bureau head Asis Perez said Wednesday the Vietnamese and their Malaysian-flagged fishing boat were apprehended Monday by coast guard and fisheries bureau operatives 23 nautical miles (43 kilometers) off Jolo Island's Pangutaran township.
The coast guard says inside the boat were 50 pieces of dead marine turtles, five bundles of black corals and reef fishes including the high-value but vanishing Napoleon wrasse.
Perez says three other foreign fishing boats spotted in the same area managed to flee toward Malaysia.
He says administrative and criminal cases are being prepared against the fishermen.

108 Vietnamese fishermen arrested by Tailand
108 Vietnamese fishermen arrested - The Nation

Naval and other Thai authorities yesterday arrested 108 Vietnamese fishermen aboard 10 foreign trawlers that violated Thailand's territorial waters in the upper Gulf of Thailand.

The three-day and two-night operation, which started on Thursday, was prompted by complaints filed by Thai fishermen that dozens of Vietnamese trawlers had encroached on Thai waters north of Koh Samet to catch giant cuttlefish.

Royal Navy Vice Admiral Chumphol Wongwekin led the operation in conjunction with five other Thai agencies, encircling the foreign trawlers that were scattered over some 20 nautical miles.

On Friday, Thai authorities, with the help of three warships and two combat helicopters, managed to arrest 108 Vietnamese aboard 10 trawlers, while 10 other foreign vessels managed to escape.
