Neighboring parties should abide by international law, avoid taking any unilateral measure that would affect the stability of the South China Sea and exercise self-restraint, the statement went on to say, adding that a peaceful resolution to territorial disputes should be achieved through multilateral communications.

'Poisoning'

According to Vietnamese reports, more than 700 employees of a Taiwanese-owned shoe factory in Thanh Hoa Province were hospitalized after drinking water from the factory's water dispensers.

The laborers reportedly showed symptoms of dizziness, frothing at the mouth, vomiting and loss of consciousness.

According to Vietnamese media outlet Thanh Nien, the workers began to feel irritation in their throats 15 minutes after drinking the water. Shortly afterwards, they began vomiting and some lost consciousness.

The local authorities held a press conference yesterday, saying that a total of 735 workers were sent to different hospitals and that most have recovered.

According to local sanitation officials, water from the factory's water dispensers did not show traces of poisonous substances and/or heavy metals.

Thanh Nien quoted a worker as saying that there has never been a problem with the factory's water before.

According to local reports, there was an instance of mass food poisoning in 2011 after workers ate food from the factory's cafeteria.
