The US is trying to embark Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand etc in an arms race among themselves and also in a coalition along with all Asian countries including Vietnam which had killed so many GIs to counter China. But China will never be at war with Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand. Singapore is a chinese country populated at 90 per cent by Chinese, the economy and politics are under the hand of Chinese. Regarding Malaysia and Thailand, again the economies and private sectors are held by the Chinese. Kuala Lumpur is a city with a majority of Chinese. These Chinese love their motherland, China. So China will be never at war against these countries. The US is playing the card of divide and rule and also if these Asian countries do not want to bully China, then they are pitched against each other just like in the case of Malaysia and Singapore. This is good for the US weapons manufacturers which are lobbying hard to instill hate and division in Asia.
