They broke into Dongsha and illegally anchored and refused to leave. The Yunlin Coast Patrol vessel enforced the law with water cannon and drove away Chinese fishing boats.
Two Chinese fishing boats, "Yue Huidong Fishing 75066" and "Golden Shark", illegally anchored for fishing operations in the restricted waters of Dongsha Island the day before yesterday. When the Coast Guard's "Yunlin Ship" went to make broadcasts to drive them away in accordance with the law, "Golden Shark" broadcast and used water cannons at them. The "Yunlin Ship" sprayed water upwards and other evacuation actions with complete disregard. The "Yunlin Ship" then sprayed water into the cockpit for 90 seconds before it was able to lift anchor and sail away. The "Golden Shark" lost power when sailing away, and the coast guard vessel guarded the safety throughout the entire process until a friendly ship came to tow it away.

The first batch of two single-seat F-16C/D fighters purchased by the Ministry of National Defense from the United States flew from Guam to Taitung Zhihang Base at noon yesterday. President Lai Ching-te said via Facebook that this is an important development in improving Taiwan's air defense capabilities and demonstrating its determination to defend itself. Taiwan and the United States will continue to deepen security cooperation. Kuomintang legislator Ma Wenjun reminded that the arrival of the new fighter jets in Taiwan is cause for joy, but it does not mean that the delays of the past few years can be written off. The Ministry of National Defense should explain the progress of the subsequent manufacturing, factory delivery and delivery of the 64 aircraft. When will all be delivered?

There's a clue! Universal cash payment of 20,000 to the Committee
Universal cash distribution of 20,000 yuan is another step forward! On the 2nd, the Legislative Yuan handed over the "Special Bill on Sharing Economic Achievements and Stabilizing People's Livelihoods", which is related to the universal cash payment of NT$20,000 by the Kuomintang Legislative Yuan group, to the Finance Committee for review without objection from the government and the opposition. The 2016 Central Government General Budget, which includes the 110,000 Yuan Universal Cash Cash, and the 2015 Central Government General Budget Supplementary Budget were also submitted to the committee at the same time. As for whether it can be increased to 20,000 yuan and when will it be credited? It still depends on the subsequent offensive and defensive actions between the government and the opposition.
See the chart for details! General cash of 20,000 will be paid to the committee.
