China's 3-pronged maritime threat rattles Japan, Philippines and Taiwan
TOKYO -- Aboard a Japanese survey vessel earlier this year, Tomomi Inada was roused from her berth in a commotion at 4 a.m. and told to look out of a porthole. The veteran Japanese ruling-party lawmaker was shocked to see the lights of a Chinese coast guard ship bearing down on her craft.
The coast guard ship's loudhailer crackled out warnings in Chinese, Japanese and English: Inada's vessel was in Chinese territory, it said, "Get out!"
