And it does so on seas that aren't even remotely close to China. They're looting the entire Pacific Ocean.

Isn't it normal for countries to fish in seas that aren't remotely close to them?

Is there a single country in Asia that doesn't practice distant water fishing?

I think the main concern is over IUU fishing, and China's fleet has been linked to that.
