Indonesia summoned the Chinese ambassador to complain, and Ms. Pudjiastuti has urged China to surrender the vessel. Jakarta has impounded 10 more Chinese boats, the ministry added, which will be destroyed unless their owners win an appeal to have them returned.
Officially, there is no territorial dispute between China and Indonesia in the South China Sea—as China has with Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines and Vietnam—but Jakarta is increasingly concerned about the presence of Chinese vessels near the Natunas. It has already announced plans to set up a military base there as a protective measure.
