Chinese activists land on disputed Senkakus; Japan right-wingers on way麻烦英语好的翻译给大家
Wednesday, March 24, 2004 at 17:40 JST
TOKYO — Seven Chinese activists landed on the main island of the disputed Senkaku Islands in the East China Sea on Wednesday morning, prompting Japan to lodge a diplomatic protest with China and a Japanese right-wing group to dispatch its own activists by ship.
The activists, reportedly among a group of 16 people who sailed off in a 100-ton ship from a port in China's coastal Zhejiang Province early Tuesday, landed on Uotsurijima, one of the five Senkaku islands, around 7:20 a.m. by small boats, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yasuo Fukuda told a press conference.
Fukuda, the top government spokesman, called it "regrettable that foreigners illegally landed on Japanese soil" and demanded they leave the 4.3-square-kilometer uninhabited island.
But the head of the activist group said the Japan Coast Guard has confiscated their two small fishing boats, leaving them stranded.
Tong Zeng, head of the China Federation for Defending the Diaoyu Islands, said the activists are planning to leave the island after completing their "mission" of setting foot on the isle.
But the Chinese ship carrying the activists and nine fellow protesters to the area earlier was being intercepted by three Japanese vessels and two helicopters as it headed back in a bid to withdraw the seven from the island, Tong said.
"Our people have already accomplished their mission. We therefore decide to bring them back home," Tong said by telephone from Beijing.
The group inserted a Chinese national flag on the island and conducted some environmental and sightseeing studies there after landing the island, Tong said.
The group originally planned to stay on the isle for one to two days, but agreed to return due to conditions including a shortage of the food and water, and a possible deterioration of weather.
Japanese immigration and police officers have been dispatched to the islands, in part to forestall a conflict in the wake of a Tokyo-based right-wing group's claim that its members are due to land on the same island Thursday or Friday.
Vice Foreign Minister Yukio Takeuchi summoned Chinese Ambassador to Japan Wu Dawei to the Foreign Ministry in the morning to complain about the incident.
Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi, insisting the islands belong to Japan, said, "I hope the Chinese side deals with the issue properly."
The group's ship was initially blocked by Japanese patrol vessels when it closed in on the islands, but the seven activists succeeded in reaching the shore using small boats. Their mother ship left Japanese territorial waters shortly after noon.
Earlier Wednesday, Tong said the group's members landed on the island "to do some scientific and environmental studies there."
"We will of course resist if Japan tries to clear our people from the island. This is a territory of China," Tong said.
The contested isles, which are claimed by Japan, China and Taiwan, are known as Diaoyu in China and Tiaoyutai in Taiwan.
The seven are the first group of such activists to land on the main island of the Senkaku Islands since October 1996.
It was the fourth time Chinese activists set out for the islands in the past nine months, but they failed in their previous three attempts to land.
Meanwhile, 13 people carrying banners protested for over an hour outside the Japanese Embassy in Beijing under the watchful eyes of police, demanding the Japanese government guarantee the safety of the activists on Uotsurijima Island.
Identifying themselves as members of the Patriots Alliance Network, they carried banners reading, "The Daioyu Islands are part of Chinese territory," "Protect every inch," and "Don't forget insults to China."
"We're very moved, very happy," said Ting Zhen, a member of the network, which has organized other anti-Japan activities.
"It wasn't so smooth, but we got there. What it means is that China is taking back its territory."
The islands' total land mass is about 7 sq. km.
On Wednesday morning, a similar steel fishing boat carrying 10 Chinese people set out from Xiamen, Fujian province, on an estimated 40-hour journey for the same purpose, Ting said.
The Chinese government tacitly supports activities by Chinese citizens to sail to the Senkaku Islands to proclaim China's sovereignty over the disputed territory.
Earlier this month, the official Xinhua News Agency reported that some 20 citizens from the provinces of Fujian, Jiangxi, Guangdong, Jiangsu and Hubei were spending a week at a camp learning survival skills needed for the voyage to the islands.
The article quoted Tong as saying his federation wants to pave the way for tourism to the islands and that the first tourist route would be open in May.
Xinhua reported last Thursday that more than 700 people had applied to join the voyage, but the federation would select only some 20 participants, including activists within the federation, experts, scholars and reporters. (Kyodo News)

All seven have just been arrested and taken off the island.

A Japanese cultural and environmental NGO is due to land on the island and take their place on March 26.

Beginning of the diplomatic wrangling.
Mikel posted a good point above -- although the islands were basically "given" to japan by the americans, who made an error with their maps after the war, China had not pressed the issue for years, instead they sort of ignored the dispute in the interests of improving sino-japanese relations. Maybe the best solution, but of course the j-nationalist boys would not leave well enough alone, so they went and built a lighthouse there in the 1990s, and made a bunch of trips over, basically just to stand there and thumb their noses at China.
Now with ishihara the insect and koizumi the war criminal worshiper running nippon, things will heat up even more round those useless little chunks of rock.

The US should accept Japans sovereignty over these islands and those other ones too that the koreans keep harping about.
Then get Japan to give us rights to use them as practice bombing sites.
Make it so nobody wants them.

To eliminate the issue forever, both sides should discuss to use a
A-bomb (let Japan make) to destroy the island, so that it can also make Japan be a nuclear powerhouse, by the way.
Damn Them Chinese

God! they're all over the place. You cant set foot on any country without seeing these communist bastards (who i might add are very fond of capitalism despite their denials). Its another case of Chinese gluttony! They cant feed their country because of their stupid space program and other crappy propaganda esposing communist values. Communism died with Mao in the 70s! get over it! They will say that its for the benefit of their fisherfolk, is the reason why they lay claim to it. Yeah, right! if anyone can remeber what they did in the spratlys Island near the Philippines and Malaysia. Their fisherfolk built concret structures on the atoll complet with satellite communication. And the fisherfolk used gunboats with cruise missiles, which were docked beside these structures! I never knew fishing was so difficult that you had to blow the fishes to kingdom come just to catch them. This just proves one thing, China is an evil empire! I hope Japan rebuilds her armed forces soon so that they can teach these trespassers a thing or two about Japanese Diplomacy!
it is good
biowp (Mar 25 2004 - 02:26)
If no chinese lands on it, the island won't be "disputed" any more after some years! China have shown enough patience to Japan! Why can you land policemen on the island, but we civilians can not ?! We have more than 2000,000 soldiers!
I do not like Japan. Look at German, how have they done for their fault in world war 2. Their president knelt dwon to regret for what they have done in world war 2 when he visited Poland! But your president is still admiring the persons who have done evil in world war 2!
I hope Japan be more peacful. China give up to punish Japan after world war 2. We have not even let Japan pay money for it! But, next time , you won't be so lucky!

No Japanese govenments claim the island before 70's when the petrol field was discovered around that island. Since then, the Japanese governments become more and more interested in this island which belonged to China since Qing Dynasty. Japanese holds the tradition: it it is interested in some place, it will claim that place, just as they have done 60 years ago. Japanese will be interested in Hawaii and claim it in the future. Japanese has resulted much trouble to asian counties and why don't the US clean that bastard country with nuclear weapons in the World war two?Chinese activists land on disputed Senkakus; Japan right-wingers on way麻烦英语好的翻译给大家

I do not like Japan. Look at German, how have they done for their fault in world war 2. Their president knelt dwon to regret for what they have done in world war 2 when he visited Poland! But your president is still admiring the persons who have done evil in world war 2!
I hope Japan be more peacful. China give up to punish Japan after world war 2. We have not even let Japan pay money for it! But, next time , you won't be so lucky!

It's China island.
Japanese thief!!!
No Japanese govenments claim the island before 70's when the petrol field was discovered around that island. Since then, the Japanese governments become more and more interested in this island which belonged to China since Qing Dynasty. Japanese holds the tradition: it it is interested in some place, it will claim that place, just as they have done 60 years ago. Japanese will be interested in Hawaii and claim it in the future.

TOKYO — Seven Chinese activists landed on the main island of the disputed Senkaku Islands in the East China Sea on Wednesday morning, prompting Japan to lodge a diplomatic protest with China and a Japanese right-wing group to dispatch its own activists by ship.
The activists, reportedly among a group of 16 people who sailed off in a 100-ton ship from a port in China's coastal Zhejiang Province early Tuesday, landed on Uotsurijima, one of the five Senkaku islands, around 7:20 a.m. by small boats, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yasuo Fukuda told a press conference.
Fukuda, the top government spokesman, called it "regrettable that foreigners illegally landed on Japanese soil" and demanded they leave the 4.3-square-kilometer uninhabited island.
But the head of the activist group said the Japan Coast Guard has confiscated their two small fishing boats, leaving them stranded.
Tong Zeng, head of the China Federation for Defending the Diaoyu Islands, said the activists are planning to leave the island after completing their "mission" of setting foot on the isle.
But the Chinese ship carrying the activists and nine fellow protesters to the area earlier was being intercepted by three Japanese vessels and two helicopters as it headed back in a bid to withdraw the seven from the island, Tong said.
"Our people have already accomplished their mission. We therefore decide to bring them back home," Tong said by telephone from Beijing.
The group inserted a Chinese national flag on the island and conducted some environmental and sightseeing studies there after landing the island, Tong said.
The group originally planned to stay on the isle for one to two days, but agreed to return due to conditions including a shortage of the food and water, and a possible deterioration of weather.
Japanese immigration and police officers have been dispatched to the islands, in part to forestall a conflict in the wake of a Tokyo-based right-wing group's claim that its members are due to land on the same island Thursday or Friday.
Vice Foreign Minister Yukio Takeuchi summoned Chinese Ambassador to Japan Wu Dawei to the Foreign Ministry in the morning to complain about the incident.
Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi, insisting the islands belong to Japan, said, "I hope the Chinese side deals with the issue properly."
The group's ship was initially blocked by Japanese patrol vessels when it closed in on the islands, but the seven activists succeeded in reaching the shore using small boats. Their mother ship left Japanese territorial waters shortly after noon.
Earlier Wednesday, Tong said the group's members landed on the island "to do some scientific and environmental studies there."
"We will of course resist if Japan tries to clear our people from the island. This is a territory of China," Tong said.
The contested isles, which are claimed by Japan, China and Taiwan, are known as Diaoyu in China and Tiaoyutai in Taiwan.
The seven are the first group of such activists to land on the main island of the Senkaku Islands since October 1996.
It was the fourth time Chinese activists set out for the islands in the past nine months, but they failed in their previous three attempts to land.
Meanwhile, 13 people carrying banners protested for over an hour outside the Japanese Embassy in Beijing under the watchful eyes of police, demanding the Japanese government guarantee the safety of the activists on Uotsurijima Island.
Identifying themselves as members of the Patriots Alliance Network, they carried banners reading, "The Daioyu Islands are part of Chinese territory," "Protect every inch," and "Don't forget insults to China."
"We're very moved, very happy," said Ting Zhen, a member of the network, which has organized other anti-Japan activities.
"It wasn't so smooth, but we got there. What it means is that China is taking back its territory."
The islands' total land mass is about 7 sq. km.
On Wednesday morning, a similar steel fishing boat carrying 10 Chinese people set out from Xiamen, Fujian province, on an estimated 40-hour journey for the same purpose, Ting said.
The Chinese government tacitly supports activities by Chinese citizens to sail to the Senkaku Islands to proclaim China's sovereignty over the disputed territory.
Earlier this month, the official Xinhua News Agency reported that some 20 citizens from the provinces of Fujian, Jiangxi, Guangdong, Jiangsu and Hubei were spending a week at a camp learning survival skills needed for the voyage to the islands.
The article quoted Tong as saying his federation wants to pave the way for tourism to the islands and that the first tourist route would be open in May.
Xinhua reported last Thursday that more than 700 people had applied to join the voyage, but the federation would select only some 20 participants, including activists within the federation, experts, scholars and reporters. (Kyodo News)

agreement...especially the kind offered by 'chosunseki'.
Pitiful. One would hope that by this day and age, we would have left racism and stereotypes behind, but human beings have unfortunately elected to remain in the dark ages.
I had hoped for better. In this age of terrorism, and blind hatred, I had hoped for better. I keep hoping that people will smarten up, focus on our common points . Not this year, evidently...

i liked the political spin the chinese put on it when they asked the japanese to stay calm and not physically abuse the activists.
regardless, youd think the japanese could show a little more wa and respect for their ancestors.

They fought the law, and the
Law Won.
All seven have just been arrested and taken off the island.
But not to worry.
A Japanese cultural and environmental NGO is due to land on the island and take their place on March 26.

Beginning of the diplomatic wrangling.
Mikel posted a good point above -- although the islands were basically "given" to japan by the americans, who made an error with their maps after the war, China had not pressed the issue for years, instead they sort of ignored the dispute in the interests of improving sino-japanese relations. Maybe the best solution, but of course the j-nationalist boys would not leave well enough alone, so they went and built a lighthouse there in the 1990s, and made a bunch of trips over, basically just to stand there and thumb their noses at China.
Now with ishihara the insect and koizumi the war criminal worshiper running nippon, things will heat up even more round those useless little chunks of rock.
Are they children, don't they know this is how wars are started?
Bomb these islands
Ossan (Mar 25 2004 - 01:27)
The US should accept Japans sovereignty over these islands and those other ones too that the koreans keep harping about.
Then get Japan to give us rights to use them as practice bombing sites.
Make it so nobody wants them.
I have a dream.......
moekyaw (Mar 25 2004 - 02:00)
To eliminate the issue forever, both sides should discuss to use a
A-bomb (let Japan make) to destroy the island, so that it can also make Japan be a nuclear powerhouse, by the way.
Damn Them Chinese

God! they're all over the place. You cant set foot on any country without seeing these communist bastards (who i might add are very fond of capitalism despite their denials). Its another case of Chinese gluttony! They cant feed their country because of their stupid space program and other crappy propaganda esposing communist values. Communism died with Mao in the 70s! get over it! They will say that its for the benefit of their fisherfolk, is the reason why they lay claim to it. Yeah, right! if anyone can remeber what they did in the spratlys Island near the Philippines and Malaysia. Their fisherfolk built concret structures on the atoll complet with satellite communication. And the fisherfolk used gunboats with cruise missiles, which were docked beside these structures! I never knew fishing was so difficult that you had to blow the fishes to kingdom come just to catch them. This just proves one thing, China is an evil empire! I hope Japan rebuilds her armed forces soon so that they can teach these trespassers a thing or two about Japanese Diplomacy!
it is good
