There was less surveillance then, and the two sides were more friendly,fishing the same waters, occasionally selling to each other on the sly. “We were like brothers, we had a goodrelationship, they would even cook for us,” he says. “But…now the control has become stricter, the [Chinese]coast guard will call me if the boats are too close.” Now a tour boat captain, Lu says if he even gets close tothe prohibited waters line－a de facto sea border with China－he’ll get a swift warning over the radio fromthe coast guard. Lu and his boat are travelling through the busy waters surrounding Kinmen County, anarchipelago controlled by Taiwan but sitting just kilometers away from China.Chinese officials have publicly rejected the existence of the prohibited waters line. Such a statementis consistent with Beijing’s claim over Taiwan, but the line had been tacitly respected since its demarcationin the 1990s. The Chinese Communist party [CCP] government claims Taiwan (including Kinmen) as aChinese province, and has become increasingly hostile in its pursuit of annexation, as Taiwan’sgovernment and people only grow more opposed. Despite the political tensions that exist, Kinmen-Xiamenis one area where official cooperation has actually managed to continue, with joint efforts to crack downon illegal fishing and smuggling, and on search and rescue missions. But a fatal capsize of a “three-noes”boat－no name, no registration, no flag－last month has threatened to derail it and raised serious questionsabout the strength of the border.✕ 你選的
