BEIJING has launched a website for an uninhabited island chain in the East China Sea, in its latest bid to assert sovereignty over an archipelago controlled by Japan.
The www.diaoyudao.org.cn website was unveiled on Tuesday by China's National Marine Data and Information Service. It came as a trio of Chinese coastguard vessels made their latest patrol of the waters surrounding the archipelago, according to a notice posted on the website of the State Oceanic Administration.
