The Jinma Peng Branch stated that Cai Maocheng, deputy director of the Fleet Branch, led the PP-10081 boat of the 9th (Kinmen) Coast Guard of the Fleet Branch to perform a sweeping mission in the Wuqiu sea area on the same day. "Nanlin" Chinese fishing boat crossed the border to engage in diving and fishing operations. Coast Guard immediately used superior police force and real guns with shock bombs to check and ban it. The fishing boat involved in the case and 4 Chinese crew members were seized on the spot; no beef or pork was found in the cabin clearance inspection related products.

According to reports from local fishermen, there have been many Chinese fishing boats crossing the border recently, hoping that the government will exert its public power; since Wuqiu is 72 miles away from Kinmen, the Kinmen Coast Guard’s mission is also 150 miles round-trip. At 2 o'clock, 4 Chinese crew members were escorted to the Kinmen Liaoluo Team Headquarters and sent to the Kinmen Coast Guard for investigation. The whole ship completed the disinfection operation and implemented the COVID-19 rapid test, all of which were negative.

Diao Zijing, deputy captain of the Kinmen Coast Guard, said that the Chinese fishing boat entered the waters of Wuqiu without permission to engage in fishing operations, which has clearly violated the law.

In addition, the Coast Guard will continue to plan and expand its power sweeping service from time to time to protect the law and order and fishery resources in the Kinmen waters including Wuqiu.
