Often clashing with the local navies and coast guards, the Chinese fishing militia has grown to become one of the greatest security risk in South America. China's Global Fishing Offenses need to be addressed.

This isn't industrial fishing! This is China's state sponsored & subsidized economic plunder & environmental destruction! Chinese fishing is not only threatens the economies of nations depending on export of fisheries but also threatens food security & livelihood.

A China Coast Guard vessel attacked a tiny Vietnamese fishing boat with water cannon, inside Vietnam's waters. Coast Guard around the world are civilian peace keeping forces. China Coast Guard, however, perpetrates China's state sponsored harassment in the neighbourhood.

China Coast Guard's bullying is not restricted to intentional collisions & illegal blockades. This is a China Coast Guard ship using Long Range Acoustic Device to harass Filipinos inside Philippines's waters. This can cause permanent hearing loss & other ear injuries!

Pacific island nations are being economically squeezed while their tuna stocks disappear. Food security for millions is being stolen.

This isn’t just environmental crime — it’s a security issue. China’s fleet doubles as a maritime militia arm, gathering intelligence and asserting presence far from home.

Chinese vessels disable AIS tracking, repaint ships, or use flags of convenience. When caught, they often flee or get light slaps on the wrist. Reports also link these operations to forced labor and human rights abuses aboard vessels — modern slavery on the high seas.

Chinese fishing vessels illegally enter the Galapagos each year to hunt marine species, like sharks, whales & giant squid. In 2017, a Chinese vessel was caught in the marine reserve with over 300 tonnes of shark carcasses.

Galapagos Islands are located thousands of miles away from China in Ecuador's waters. Waters around Galapagos Islands are a protected marine reserve & all kinds of fishing activities are banned. This doesn't stop the Chinese fishing vessels from illegally exploiting the region.

This is South Korean Coast Guard firing warning shots at Chinese fishing militia operating illegally inside South Korea's territory. These fishing vessels are part of PLA Navy's maritime militia & they perform covert military operations on behalf of the PLA.

Taiwan Coast Guard's Anping-class patrol vessel "Donggang" (CG-615) was launched today, marking the last of the 12 vessels in the same class for the Coast Guard. I hope this new vessel has a powerful Water Cannon, to give Chinese vessels what they do to others!

Taiwan is the world’s most important "non-existent" country. While the CCP tries to airbrush 23 million people off the global map, "Invisible Nation" pulls back the curtain on the vibrant democracy Beijing is desperate to hide.
