This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 103.86.70.150 (talk) at 13:38, 16 July 2019 (the article topic is xiamen island, not xiamen city. the area of the island appears correct and follows from the cited authority. the cited authority does NOT state the length of coastline of xiamen island. it states teh length of coastline of xieman city. from the length and breadth of the city stated by the same authority relied on (FN1) it is obvious a coastline of of 234 kilometers is not consistent with the size of xiamen island (13.7 x 12.5km)).
