[Letters] Korea should not expect to have the cake

While I agree on principle with Lee Chul-ho that China should rein in its fishermen and restore its fisheries, I don’t know what Lee and other whining South Korean journalists are expecting the Chinese Foreign Ministry to do.

Should they simply tell the South Koreans to “go ahead and shoot the Chinese fishermen”? If you were the Chinese government, what would you say to the South Koreans? When South Korean fishermen plagued Japanese waters not too long ago, what did the South Korean government tell the Japanese? Please go ahead and shoot the South Korean fishermen you caught?

South Koreans seem to have a lot of anger and hostility toward China and the Chinese these days.
