The Philippine government said its maritime police seized the Chinese fishing boat and apprehended its crewmen to enforce maritime laws and to uphold Philippine sovereign rights over its exclusive economic zone. 中国要求菲方放人放船，外交部发言人华春莹迫切要求马尼拉“停止采取任何进一步的挑衅行动。”菲律宾政府说马尼拉警方抓扣中国渔船和拘禁中国船员是在其所属于经济区“履行马尼拉法律和维护菲律宾主权”。 It is the latest territorial spat between the two Asian nations, which have had increasingly tense disputes over two shoals and other areas of the South China Sea. China earlier said via state media that Chinese officials lost contact with 11 fishermen after they were intercepted by armed men near Half Moon Shoal not far from the Philippines. ?这是两个亚洲国家之间最近的领土争端，在两个岛礁和其他中国南海地区，争端正在升级。 中国前几天通过国家媒体说，中国渔船和11名船员在离菲律宾附近的半月滩附近遭受武装人员迫胁后，中国官员跟他们失去联系。 The shoal, called Hasa Hasa in the Philippines, is claimed by China as part of the Nansha island chain, known internationally as the Spratly Islands. The Spratlys are a major cluster of potentially oil- and gas-rich islands and reefs long disputed by China, the Philippines, Taiwan, Malaysia, Vietnam and
