So glad you appreciate our mercy. Remember not to wear it thin.

hey Singapore who is a tributary of the larger countries, a country with a tradition of surrender that no one else is Singapore (like a whore for the UK and China)

Look who's talking.

 

[NiceGuy]

let the US fire the first shot if they dare.
let the US bite first if they got the guts.

US military barks but never bites a big military power.

china should explore oil wherever they want in those islands.

any country that fires the first shot at china will face devastating economic and military consequences.

Okey okey, no need to be so aggressive, Japan is more worry about your claim than VN, coz about 70-80 % of Japan cargo ships must pass by SCS(east sea) also, let wait for Japan's action, will they convince US. to do some thing or not.

Vietnam: Chinese soldiers attack fishermen - Yahoo! News
Vietnam: Chinese soldiers attack fishermen
HANOI, Vietnam (AP) — Armed Chinese soldiers allegedly beat a Vietnamese fisherman and threatened other crew members before driving them out of waters near disputed South China Sea islands claimed by both countries, a Vietnamese official said Thursday.

A Chinese navy ship chased the fishermen before dispatching a speedboat with 10 soldiers armed with automatic rifles and batons, a border official in Vietnam's central Quang Ngai province said on condition of anonymity, citing policy. The soldiers boarded the fishing boat near the contested Paracel Islands.

The soldiers punched and kicked the Vietnamese captain and threatened nine other crew members in the July 5 incident, he said, adding the captain was not injured.

The Vietnamese official said the Chinese soldiers confiscated one ton of fish from the boat and drove it from the area. The fishermen continued working before coming to shore and reporting the incident to authorities Wednesday, he said.

The incident is the latest flare-up in an ongoing maritime spat between the communist neighbors that has increased regional tensions after both countries recently announced they had conducted live-fire naval drills in the South China Sea.

Twice since May, Vietnam has accused China of interfering in its oil and gas exploration efforts. China instead says Vietnam endangered its fishermen.

Vietnam and China both claim the resource-rich Paracels. China has stationed troops there since driving out South Vietnamese soldiers in 1974, one year before the end of the Vietnam War.

The recent blowup has sparked rare demonstrations near the Chinese Embassy in Hanoi for the past six weekends despite the detention of protesters and journalists covering the event Sunday.

Last month, a Vietnamese envoy traveled to Beijing for talks with Chinese officials where they agreed to negotiate a peaceful resolution.

China also has been sparring with the Philippines over the nearby Spratly Islands.

They rough up some Vietnamese fishermen? Good that's what they get for fishing in our turf. They're lucky we didn't confiscate the boat.

No sure if they really are fishermen. They can be soldiers, Using fishing boats to test China, Vietnam always do that.

I had started to believe that China is smarter than raising the issue where they will be in a lose-lose situation if they would use force. Apparently not so. China gets nothing in East Sea by using force. Better to look at cooperation scenario and work with Vietnam and Phillipines. A militarily weaker country does not mean that it will be easy to bully. I know a few Vietnamese and I get the idea that it will not be easy or worthwhile to bully them.

Better to use peace and cooperation. That will resolve the conflict.

But on the other hand, China is known to test waters and raise tempers to see what bounces back. There are enough precedences of that approach. It remains to be seen what kind of response Viet Nam and other involved parties evince. If hard enough, then the issue will go on a burner for another 10 years I am sure.

use force??? china has not used "force" china could easily send a flotilla to the area which would have more fire power than any claiment countries navies but has not done so, so far the response has been to send a couple of poorly armed fishery ships and unarmed surveillance ships to the area, force would be something like declaring a large exercise involving island taking scenarios

It's our sea, and we will not shy away from patrolling it just to please foreigners. The Chinese government is responsible to the people of China only, and people of China demand we protect our sovereignty.
