| China says concerned over Indonesia's blowing up of fishing boat |
| 2015-05-22 |
| May 21 China on Thursday expressed "serious concern" over the blowing up of a Chinese fishing vessel seized by Indonesia six years ago, the first such incident under President Joko Widodo. The Chinese Foreign Ministry said the country had pressed Indonesia for more details about the destruction of the Chinese boat, which was among 41 vessels blown up by Indonesia on Wednesday suspected of illegal fishing. Other countries with boats destroyed include Thailand and Vietnam. Since taking office last October, Widodo's administration has blown up dozens of foreign vessels as part of his get-tough campaign against illegal fishing. |
