On June 12, 2024, a Chinese speedboat entered the mouth of the Danshui River, Taiwan, and the Coast Guard Administration issued conflicting statements about the incident, initially claiming a collision at the dock then later asserting the arrest was made right after the boat docked. The man involved, surnamed Ruan, claimed to have asked passersby to call the police after landing. The discrepancies in the three versions led to public concern and criticism, with the government emphasizing the need for a clear explanation and prompt action. Despite admitting mistakes and lack of communication, the Coast Guard maintained they monitored the situation throughout. Government officials expressed support for the coast guard's frontline defense efforts amid calls to review and improve operational procedures.
