State media in China warn North Korea to stop detaining fishing boats amid public anger over the "kidnapping" of fishermen by unidentified captors.State media report a Chinese fishing boat and its 16-man crew who were reportedly held for ransom by an armed group in waters off the west coast of North Korea were released early on Tuesday.
Global Times says the incident has "fuelled outrage" among the Chinese public, with internet users venting "fury" towards North Korea, as "traditionally close ties between the nations have been pushed toward greater tension".
A bilingual Global Times editorial suspects that the North Korean army used the ambiguity of maritime borders to "make a quick buck" by detaining the Chinese crew.
"If North Korea continues to go rogue, China should take actions to push it toward a more measured response... If we don't set rules for North Korea, our whole government's image may be seen as being too weak to deal with maritime issues," it stresses.

North Korea is like China's bastards child; they are stuck with them but they really dont like them and dont remember how they got stuck with them.
 
Actually NK got their communism from the Russians, but China supported them during the Korean War. They deserve each other.

Talking about modern day...
