Internet users want navy to fight pirates
(China Daily)
Updated: 2008-12-18 07:44 A possible deployment of China's navy to fight pirates in Somalia's coast has the overwhelming support of the country's netizens. In fact, they want the government to send a navy fleet as soon as possible. The navy has just finished an anti-terror drill in the South China Sea, with warships and helicopters "rescuing" hijacked cargo vessels. A survey conducted by www.huanqiu.com showed 90 percent of the 14,124 netizens who were interviewed wanted the government to send the navy to fight the pirates. "We fully support the government's decision and hope a (navy) fleet is sent as soon as possible because China should take part in multinational peacekeeping in the region," said a netizen on huanqiu.com. "It's very important to secure a safe maritime route in Somalia's coast because oil imported by Chinese firms from Arab countries mostly go through it," another netizen, named Zhenhua said on www.zzdnews.com. |
