Two Chinese boats collected workers from central Vietnam, even as Vietnamese authorities thwarted anti-China protests after violent demonstrations resulted in two deaths and damage at factories.

Two Chinese passenger ships left the Vietnamese port of Vung Ang after picking up 1,908 Chinese nationals, Tran Dac Hoa, vice president of the Labor Federation in Ha Tinh province, said by phone. More than 3,000 people will be evacuated today and tomorrow, he said.

Two more Chinese ships are expected to come to the port, with a further vessel on standby, said Duong The Cuong, head of the port in Ha Tinh. More than 3,000 Chinese nationals had already been brought home as of May 17, China’s Foreign Ministry said yesterday, with more than 290 flown to Chengdu.

Security forces in Vietnam’s major cities yesterday deterred people from protesting the placement of an oil rig in disputed waters off Vietnam’s coast after the government allowed unprecedented rallies that drew several thousand people on May 11. The anti-China attacks on foreign-owned factories last week also left about 140 injured, halting production lines and causing Taiwanese and other workers to flee the country.

China’s move to send ships to pick up its workers “could have been an overreaction,” said David Koh, an independent consultant and former senior fellow at the Institute for Southeast Asian Studies in Singapore who has studied Vietnam for more than 20 years.
