Argentina Sinks Chinese Boat

Argentina cost guard sank a Chinese fishing vessel because the boat was illegally fishing in Argentina territorial waters and ignored warnings. 
The similar incident happened in Japan. At the time, Japan couldn't do nothing but let Chinese boat attacked Japanese coast guard vessel. 
Japanese government should study this case and should do the correct reaction to the similar situations.

Indonesia Sinks Illegal Fishing Boats

Indonesian government has sunk 41 foreign boats due to illegal fishing in its territory. One of the vessels was from China and others were from Vietnam, Thailand and Philippines. 
A nation's territorial waters should be protected from others. The foreign fishing boats obviously broke laws and should be punished. I believe Jakarta did the punishment after giving warning repeatedly. 
I don't think Japanese government could do the same if it happens in Japanese territorial waters. But I think every countries have to obey the laws, therefore Tokyo should apply Japanese law on that issue even if Chinese vessels break into Japanese territory and do the illegal things.
