| Summary / Abstract (Note) | In September 2010, the captain of a Chinese trawler that had been fishing in disputed waters near the Senkaku/Diaoyu islands, claimed by Japan, China and Taiwan, was detained by the Japanese Coast Guard after a collision between their vessels. A month later, nine Vietnamese fishermen were released after more than a month, having been arrested by Chinese maritime constabulary forces in disputed waters near the Paracel Islands in the South China Sea. In December, one Chinese fisherman was killed in a collision with the South Korean coast guard, which was trying to prevent illegal fishing. |
