A Chinese frigate and a submarine visited Yunghsing or Woody Island, the largest of the Paracels, later in March. The navy set up a land office on the island to coordinate patrols over the waters of the Macclesfield Bank and the Paracel and Spratly Islands.[…]\nSaigon fell in April 1975, and the North Vietnamese invaded the Paracels, occupying five islets. Yunghsing, however, wasn't invaded. Hanoi also claimed sovereignty over the Paracels and the Spratlys on May 15. Taipei reiterated on March 19 and May 12 that the Paracels and the Spratlys are part of the \"traditional\" territory of the Republic of China.",
