A Taiwanese fishing boat 'Da Jin Man 88' from Penghu was recently inspected and detained by Chinese maritime police, prompting the dispatch of three coast guard ships for assistance, but ultimately unsuccessful due to sensitive cross-strait relations and international attention. The Executive Yuan, Mainland Affairs Council, and National Security Bureau have all issued statements urging China to release the fishermen and boat promptly, cautioning Taiwanese fishermen against operating or fishing in high-risk waters during China’s fishing moratorium. They emphasized the need to avoid violations, ensure safety, and prevent escalating fishermen's basic infractions into unnecessary incidents that cause anxiety.
