The Chinese dredger suspected of plundering two World War II Royal Navy shipwrecks last year has been detained by Malaysian maritime authorities. MV Chuan Hong 68 and the entire crew is being held for paperwork violations including port clearances and having 60 unregistered LPG containers aboard and not illegal scavenging, according to a report in Maritime Executive. But the larger question being raised by Southeast Asia news media and investigated by local authorities is how a ship like Chuan Hong 68 with its “bad reputation” that goes back years even be allowed to return to Malaysian waters.

      Guess you’re pretty pissed about China colonizing the South China sea, Tibet, and other territories.

        At least they keep it close to home. Chineses slaughtering Chinese adjacents is a popular pass time when they’re not too busy slaughtering each other. The only thing more dangerous to the Chinese than other chineses is literally every single culture they have interacted with historically across all time. Because they’re such swell folks.
