In an exclusive report on June 10, 2024, at 11:51 pm, a Chinese man drove a speedboat into Taiwan's Tamsui River at Fisherman's Wharf, claiming to defect to Taiwan. This incident raised concerns and speculations of possible deeper military intentions. Oceans Affairs Council Chairperson Kuan Pi-ling revealed that the man had previously served as a navy ship captain, indicating an unusual background. The man, identified as Ruan, was intercepted by coast guard personnel after driving into the Tamsui River defense zone on June 9. Investigations suggest the boat may have directly sailed from China to Taiwan for potential navigation testing. Kuan stated that although the man didn't clearly state his motives, the investigation aims to uncover the truth. With increased vigilance needed, Taiwan's national security is a priority in such incidents.
