BEIJING, July 11 (Xinhua) — A Japanese fishing boat has been sent away after illegally entering territorial waters near China's Chiweiyu islet in the Diaoyu Islands, China Coast Guard (CCG) spokesman Liu Dejun said Friday.

According to him, the BOC ships took necessary control measures in accordance with the law, issued warnings and forced the Japanese vessel to leave China's territorial waters after it illegally entered the aforementioned waters on Wednesday.

Stressing that Diaoyu and its adjacent islands are China's original territory, Liu Dejun called on the Japanese side to immediately stop all illegal activities in these waters.

"The BOC will continue to carry out law enforcement activities in the territorial waters under China's jurisdiction to protect the country's territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests," Liu Dejun added. -0-
