The Fujian Coast Guard's patrols near Jinmen play important roles:
I. Main Purposes
1. Maintaining Maritime Order
Law Enforcement
Ensure compliance with relevant laws and regulations in China's adjacent waters. This includes preventing illegal fishing activities such as unlicensed fishing, over fishing, and fishing in restricted areas. For example, some fishermen may try to fish in areas where there are specific conservation measures or without proper authorization. The coast guard patrols can detect and stop such illegal behavior, protecting the sustainable use of fishery resources.
Safety Supervision
Monitor the safety of maritime traffic. Jinmen is in the coastal area, and there is a certain amount of shipping traffic. The coast guard patrols can ensure that ships follow the correct navigation routes, abide by safety regulations, and prevent maritime accidents such as ship collisions. At the same time, they can also provide assistance to ships in distress in a timely manner.
2. Sovereignty and Security Protection
Sovereignty Assertion
China's territorial waters around Jinmen are an inalienable part of China's territory. The Fujian Coast Guard's patrols are a manifestation of China's exercise of sovereignty over its own waters. It sends a clear signal to the international community that China firmly safeguards its territorial integrity and maritime rights and interests.
Security Prevention
Prevent illegal incursions by foreign vessels or potential security threats. In some cases, there may be attempts by foreign ships to enter China's waters without permission for various reasons such as intelligence gathering or illegal exploration. The coast guard patrols can detect and deal with these potential threats in a timely manner, safeguarding national security.
