In that case then gentlemen, have fun.
I was wondering if this event has anything to do with China publicly opposes NK's nuclear testing plan last few weeks? And again, if anybody has any in depth information to share about what was and is going on on maritime border between China and NK then it would be much appreciated.

According to another forum citing 'AFP' on twitter, there is a possibility that at least some of the hijackers are Chinese rather than North Korean.
One of the captured fishermen has supposedly confirmed it according to this source.
Could there be a possibility of non-state NK actors backed by weapons smuggled through China?Last edited by diablo49; 18 May 12,, 03:05.

It certainly wouldn't surprise me in the least.“He was the most prodigious personification of all human inferiorities.

There's probably some table-pounding, foaming-at-the-mouth, chairs-being-hurled-through-windows going on in Beijing right now.“He was the most prodigious personification of all human inferiorities.

Right or wrong, an arrest is generally follow by some sort of court of law with paper works. I don't recall seeing the Chinese fishermen being charged with anything nor accompanied any court date-- That is the different ransom and bail bonds
They were then forced at gunpoint to sail into North Korean waters
Please tell me why China has to protest every time their fishermen are arrested, even when they were far, far, far away from home?Last edited by xinhui; 20 May 12,, 04:14.“the misery of being exploited by capitalists is nothing compared to the misery of not being exploited at all” -- Joan Robinson
