More people taken hostage, I suppose.
China barks, but is afraid to bite. They'd rather pick on individuals than try to take on some government who could bloody their nose. They think they save 'face' in doing that.
Have hostages actually been taken? I haven't seen anything about this.
Not yet, but Herb made a joke about it above, but that seems to be the way they treat foreign relations now. Take people hostage and torture them till their countries do what China wants.
