Really?

BS lah!

China and Vietnam clashed again over China's Haiyang Shiyou oil rig in Vietnam's EEZ.

The incident left seventeen Vietnamese injured and damaged ships of both countries.

When Joko Widodo became President of the country in 2014, he instituted a policy in 2015 that if any foreign fishermen were caught illegally fishing in Indonesian waters, their vessels would be destroyed.

On 19 March 2016, the China Coast Guard prevented the detention of Chinese fishermen by Indonesian authorities after Chinese fishermen were caught fishing near the waters around Natuna, leading to a protest by Indonesian authorities; the Chinese ambassador was subsequently summonsed as China had considered the areas to be "Chinese traditional fishing grounds"

South China Sea: Malaysia scrambles jets to intercept 16 Chinese military planes

Foreign Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said he would summon the Chinese envoy over the ‘breach of Malaysian sovereignty and airspace’

China should make Singapore pay over South China Sea dispute, says PLA adviser

Beijing should impose sanctions and retaliate against Singapore to make the Republic "pay the price for seriously damaging China's interests", an influential Chinese defence adviser reportedly told state radio.

The remarks by Professor Jin Yinan, director of the strategic research institute at the PLA's National Defence University, is the latest salvo from China in a recent war of words over the South China Sea territorial spat.

Chinese Media Call for Boycott of South Korean Goods

China’s state media are calling for a boycott of South Korean goods and sanctions after a Korean conglomerate approved a land swap deal at home that paves the way for the deployment of a controversial U.S. missile defense system. But how China could go about punishing South Korea without hurting its own economy is already proving to be a difficult question, and not all agree boycotts are a viable solution.

[Jamesc]

Waves of boycotts of Japanese goods have emerged among the Chinese public in recent weeks, with particular emphasis on Japanese cosmetics and food products.

The campaign has gone viral across Chinese social media platforms in recent weeks, with netizens compiling lists of Japanese cosmetics brands, food producers and baby products to remind people to avoid using or buying them in the future amid safety concerns. Some are even pushing to add Chinese brands using Japanese raw materials to the lists.

Double stardard

Chinese still fish near Japan after water release from Fukushima

Chinese boats are catching fish in what Beijing calls “Fukushima nuclear-contaminated water” for distribution in China, while the same marine products caught in the same area by Japanese vessels remain banned in that country.

The Chinese government imposed a blanket ban on Japanese seafood imports immediately after the Japanese government and Tokyo Electric Power Co. began releasing treated radioactive water from the stricken Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant a month ago.

But fish caught in the same part of the Pacific Ocean by Chinese vessels are apparently A-OK as domestic products.

China even fights with little Bhutan!

That peaceful little country!

Sino-Indian border dispute

A deadly clash on the India-China frontier in 2020 has caused a fundamental shift in relations between the two Asian giants. 

Anxieties arising from competition for influence in South Asia and globally have spilled over into their border dispute, fuelling military build-ups and heightening the risk of fresh fighting.

List of territorial disputes involving China

Check the details of 13 countries that have been involved in territorial disputes with China.

1. The Philippines

In November last year, Chinese vessels had blocked and used water cannons on two Philippine supply boats that were heading to a disputed shoal occupied by Filipino marines in the South China Sea. The hostility which triggered an angry protest from Manila was the latest flare-up in the South China Sea with China claiming virtually the entire waterway.

Manila is facing a deadlock in a dispute that it cannot resolve alone and while the armed conflict directly involving the Philippines is unlikely, there remains a growing potential for incidents at sea to escalate.

2. Vietnam

In another South China Sea dispute, China and Vietnam have long faced ‘maritime territorial disputes over the Spratly Islands and the Paraceal Islands. Despite resolving the issue through diplomacy, breakthroughs have proven elusive.

3. Japan

 China and Japan have repeatedly clashed over a group of uninhabited islands called the Senkaku islands in Tokyo, the Diaoyu Islands in Beijing, and the Tiaoyutai islands in Taiwan. China began raising the questions of sovereignty over the islands in the 1970s when evidence of oil reserves in the region surfaced.

For some years, Beijing has been aggravating tensions by increasing the presence of the China Coast Guard vessels in the contiguous zone of the Senkaku/Diaoyu islands.

4. Nepal

China has also been accused of encroaching on Nepal’s territory along the two countries' shared border. As per the leaked government report, China has been trespassing in the district of Humla, in the far west of Nepal.

5. Bhutan

China shares a contiguous border of 292 miles with Bhutan and the territorial disputes have been a source of potential conflict. Since the 1980s, the two governments have conducted regular talks on the issues.

6. India

China has a disagreement with India over its land border in the Himalayas. Both the countries fought a bloody war in 1962, ending in a ceasefire that led to the establishment of the Line of Control.

7. Indonesia

The issue between China and Indonesia is another South China Sea dispute. China has repeatedly demanded that Indonesia halt an oil and natural gas project in the region claiming that the efforts to extract the natural resources are an infringement on its territorial waters.

8. Laos

Laos has a 313-mile border with China that runs from the tripoint with Myanmar in the west to the tripoint with Vietnam in the east. China alleges that it owns large parts of Laos on a historical precedent dating back to the Yuan Dynasty.

9. Myanmar

As per the reports by China, the residents of Myanmar’s northern shan state had destroyed a fence built by the Chinese authorities claiming it encroaches on their country’s territories. As per the experts, if the issues go unresolved it could seriously damage the relations between the communities living in two nations.

10. Tibet

After Taiwan, Tibet is perhaps China’s most well-known territorial dispute. In 1950, China enforced a long-held claim on the Himalayan country and incorporated it with its own territory. After an unsuccessful uprising in 1959, Tibet’s spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama fled to India where he had set up a government in exile.

11. Singapore

Singapore and China have also clashed over their claim in the South China Sea. It particularly takes issues with building airstrips and hangars, as well as stationing the anti-aircraft and anti-missile systems in the Spratly Islands.

12. Brunei

The small Islamic nation has been long described as the silent claimant to areas in the South China Sea because it keeps a low profile in major disputes.

Reportedly, China has bought its silence over the territorial issues because of an influx of investment that coincided with the suppression of anything that might be deemed mildly critical of China.

13. Mongolia

In 2015, China claimed an attack on one of its remote checkpoints in Inner Mongolia was because of a provincial border dispute. The area in question is said to be claimed by both Inner Mongolians and residents of neighboring Gansu Province.

I only can say so far I have not witnessed a USA's type of China. Don't agree? 😆

[Jamesc]

Why China supporters must tell lies and have double standards?

Because they think they are Chinese! 

And must support the motherland!

Born in the motherland or not?

Live in the motherland or not?

If not why support?

Because your father, grandfather, great grandfather comes from China?

My grandfather came from China.

If it was so great he would have stayed there.

He came because it was so shit bad just to survive he came here!

So why should I support China?

Because of my grandfather's DNA?

I was not born in China, I don't live in China.

Never been! Except HK and Macau if people consider that China then I have been!
