Clash between Taiwanese boats and Japan Coast Guard

On 25 September 2012, when dozens of fishing boats entered Japanese territorial water en route to the Diaoyutai Islands, Japan Coast Guard patrol boats fired water cannon at the fishing boats. Wang of the Coast Guard Administration (CGA) ships responded: "We do not rule out using force to fight back if Japan were to do so".

Diaoyutai Islands fishery water

After signing the historic fishery agreement between ROC and Japan on 10 April 2013, Wang said that any fishing boat entering the Senkaku Islands (or from Mandarin Chinese, Diaoyutai Islands) water within 12 nautical miles from outside Taiwan will be expelled, including the Japanese fishing boats. This triggered anger from Mainland China.
