We have been hearing about this for a long time in the Philippines for months. But somehow, it's brushed under the rug because our primary issue is with the PRC. Vietnam don't ram our boats nor do they block our fishermen in their traditional fishing grounds. Vietnam can be reasoned with, while China will just ram and water cannon Filipinos away from our EEZ. That make's all the difference.
Wow, Vietnam finished the British colonialism or Imperialism in second world war or I think 🤔 it was Japanese. As a teenager from Pakistan I can't identity, Chinese, japanese, south Korean, Thailand, Philippines. It's like brothers and sisters of each other but in different countries 😂😂🎉🎉

China does not stop Vietnam and provided boats to Vietnam. because they are both communist. China can accept Vietnam taking larger part of the SCS at the expense of Philippines' claim.
The relationship between China and the Philippines could have been as peaceful as that between the Philippines and Vietnam, but the United States is manipulating the Philippine government from behind the scenes, deliberately creating conflicts and tensions because it wants to alleviate the pressure it faces on two fronts in Ukraine and Israel.
First of all, the hurricane was one month ago, both the government and the military are still helping people (including my family and my neighbors). Second, the creation of these artificial islands has been happening since 2010
Hey man. I get what you're trying to get across. But Vietnam's effort in alleviating the Typhoon damage is looked upon positively by Worlds' institutions, which they can be rightfully proud of. They deployed 400k Soilders to help prepare for the evacuation rescue operations, offer aid to peoples affected and credits for businesses as well. After 3 weeks everything was pretty much back to normal, aside from a few industrial plants in the North. I understand your view and sentiment, that this government is without flaws. But seeing Vietnam developing Strategic partnerships with 4 Global superpowers while simultaneously uplifting hundreds of thousands of people from poverty does show competency
We indians also want to build artificial islands but my india doesn't even have money to pay our soldiers let alone building artificial islands that costs billions
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="114">1:54</a> When China claimed the 9 dash line, UNCLOS didn’t exist yet. That’s why China’s claim didn’t need to follow the UNCLOS rules. No country follows a law that didn’t exit in the first place.
Let’s hope the Vietnamese government releases influencers Nguyen Chi Tuyen, Nguyen Vu Binh, and environmentalists Dang Dinh Bach, Nguy Thi Khanh, Mai Phan Loi, and Bach Hung Duong, who were detained by the Cómmúnist Party of Vietnam for speaking out on issues related to the government's conduct.
True but the Vietnamese military installations were much smaller in scale, China just ramped them way up. WSJ for propaganda purposes won't mention that though.
Back in 2014 China was getting agressive with the drilling rig HD 981 which prompted a response from Vietnam. Not aiming at anyone in particular but troops suddenly get snap drill orders, riots and demonstration against China was tacitly "allowed to happen" and a few dozens boats both law enforcement and civilian shadowed and trail the Chinese drilling rig. Now with China expansion of its holding, Vietnam is doing the same.
Only in the late 1970’s. Vietnam occupies about 50 outposts or islands, Philippines 9, China 7, Malaysia 5 and Taiwan has 1 but is the largest island in the Spratlys. None of the islands are capable of supporting human life without outside support.
They are both reclaiming islands within Philippines sea... Xhina though can pacifier Philippines first then Vietnam and Malaysia afterwards to Indonesia... As long as they claims and reclaiming isnt theirs then no ending of mishaps. If we following unclos maybe there is possibility of peace and harmony in the regions.
But UNCLOS doesn’t deal with issues concerning sovereignty. It only covers EEZ which is economic resources such as fishing and oil which are clearly the Philippines. But an EEZ is still international waters and UNCLOS does not deal with ownership of disputed islands.
You all wanted to have open trade with China and most of us said I think that’s a bad idea, but you all made your money and somebody else has to clean up the mess, as usual. Is that really capitalism? When the biggest guys never have any risk at all.
It’s been more than 20 years since Vietnam started to occupy Chinese territory in the South China Sea and build artificial islands. Western media never reported the whole story and whole picture in the South China Sea until this report.
After the war in 1975, the US left behind many advanced aircraft and tons of bombs in Vietnam. It is certain that China is no match for Vietnam in battles around the Spratly Islands at that time. The Vietnamese remained calm enough to avoid conflict with China in 1988 when they suddenly occupied some islands. Looking back now, I can see how clever our leaders were at that time for not attempting to reclaim the islands. We might have won that war and regained all those islands, but what would have happened next would have been far more dangerous. We could have been stuck in a prolonged conflict, and our country might never have become as strong as it is today.
Not that clever lol. You fed and armed Pol Pot -> they betrayed you and stabbed you in the back. You listened to Chinese advisors for 20 years and they slapped you hard in 1979. You followed the Soviets for aids, they collapsed in 1989. None of your geopolitical allies worked out, they all either betrayed you or disappeared.
It is a full and priper state with boundries as given in 1945. So shut up. Most of the world including india like the us worrying sbout our business. Its good protection
Clearly you've never read any of the WSJ articles that have a statement in the first paragraph or two along the lines of "this has not previously been reported" ... and then follow up articles about congressional inquires that were started after congress was made aware of something from reading a WSJ article.
lol! Don’t underestimate… VN deals with Chinese invasion for thousands of year, hundred years under French colonialism and the latest war with American. They’re good at bamboo diplomacy 😂 coconut economy 😂 and buddhism policy 😂
