There's maybe another Amboyna Cay incident from 1979, it is mentioned in Wikipedia and
"Upon arrival at Amboyna Cay, on the morning of April 1, while sitting about one mile off the coast, we are fired upon by the inhabitants of Amboyna Cay. Four blasts reverberated from a gun placement in the center of the island. Luckily missed. We headed back to Brunei."

I've not read this story before.
A DX-pedition in 1982 where things go really bad for four German hams.

The newly formed #Xinsha district of the PR #China is deep in the EEZ of #Vietnam, the #Nansha district is deep in the #EEZ of the Philippines.
#China has put itself in contempt of an international court with these actions. #Beijing's rulers should be treated as what they are: A territorially expansive and highly oppressive regime in contempt of international rule.
Isolate #China and stop this #expansionism as long as diplomacy can still do so. The clock is ticking. #Spratly #Paracel
