China again lands planes on disputed island in South China Sea: Xinhua

[Sanchez]

There is corel reef, not Island. China changed the status quo what she has committed.

Do you even have a Vietnamese name for it? Since when?

I concur with many of our folks above that the airport is very impressive. It is constructed in excellent workmanship as shown in the pix. Simply first class!

There will be more threads on the same subject with the word "again" in the title, until people are fed up with it.

You guys would be better off staying mum

Otherwise China might react to your silly cacaphonies with more land reclamation in the Spratlys。

China invaded into sea territory of her neighbors, made fake is islands on corel reefs there. China is aggressor.

The world order is defined by great powers. It is ludicrous for a country like Vietnam to nag "status quo" line. If the "status quo" were to be taken seriously, Vietnam would have remained as North Vietnam and South Vietnam today. The airport is there to stay, so just get used to it. There are more to come.

China signed in COC document with Asean countries to maintain status quo in SCS, but china made artifact islands there, China is untrusted partner.

. North or South both is soil of the same country, it does belong to Vietnamese. Vietnamese fought counter USA's intervention to unitify the country Its right of Vietnamese people.

Do you even have a Vietnamese name for it? Since when?

The name Vietnam is related to the discussion between Nguyen Dynasty of Viet/Kinh people with Man Qing Dynastry of Manchurian people. This name is not related to Han Chinese now aday..

The United States said after the first landing it was concerned that the flight had exacerbated tension.

This is the stupidest comment I have ever seen. The plane landing is expected after building an air strip. How could it exacerbate tension? People didn't expect plane landing would be happening?

Just do your thing bro. Don't worry about Uncle Sam.

No need. Rich soil will be transported those islands

No need as long as enough people poop there.

Vietnam protests China’s pilot flight to illegally-built airport
VNA SATURDAY, JANUARY 02, 2016 - 18:55:00

Hanoi (VNA) – Foreign Ministry’s spokesman Le Hai Binh has expressed Vietnam’s resolute protest against China’s pilot flight to an illegally-built airport on Chu Thap (Fiery Cross) reef in Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelago.

He made the statement in Hanoi on January 2, the same day when China committed the action.

“China’s above-mentioned action seriously violated Vietnam’s sovereignty over Truong Sa archipelago and went counter to the common perception of the two countries’ leaders, the agreement on basic principles guiding the settlement of Vietnam – China issues at sea and the spirit of the 2012 Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the East Sea,” he said.

It has undermined peace and stability in the East Sea, eroded bilateral political trust and negatively impacted the neighbourliness and sentiments between the two peoples, he added.

The spokesperson stated that Vietnam asks China to immediately end, not to repeat such an action and take practical and specific acts to contribute to maintaining peace, stability, security, maritime and aviation safety and freedom in the East Sea.

The same day, a representative from the Vietnamese Foreign Ministry presented a diplomatic note to Chinese embassy counterpart opposing China’s action.-VNA

Chinese government should invite those old PLA soldiers who guarded this rock all those years, back to the island, and honor them. Without their sacrifice, there would be no airport.

Build a resort for retired soldiers there!
