you don't know the history. China does have right to those island, it is why Philippine did not dare to challenge it in it PCA court dispute. the main problem is non of our countries were independent when Japan surrendered, hance only China had the ability to claim and take over those island. in fact China took over those island using warship given to it by US. US could totally have seize those island but choose not to because China was their ally in WWII, and in exchange for control of South China Seas, China did not take part in the partitioning of Japan like the allies did to Germany. it is unfortunate and unfair that we were colonised during WWII, but the one that colonised us wasn't China. the one that deny us a say wasn't China, it was the western imperialist elite that still refuse to free use after WWII despite their failure to protect us from Japan. I believe ASEAN has the right to contest SCS, however we should be honest in that it is we who is contesting previously establish Chinese territories, and not China contesting our territory. we did not control SCS when we were finally granted independence, in fact we didn't contest SCS until 2 decade after we became independent.

Vietnam had established its presence and exploited resources on these two archipelagos since the Nguyen Dynasty. China illegitimately drew the 'eleven-dash line' encompassing the entire South China Sea without convincing evidence. Vietnam's sovereignty over these two archipelagos was merely interrupted by the invasions of France and Japan. China has no sovereignty or legal basis for its claims. The 'nine-dash line' is invalid and violates the sovereignty of coastal nations in the South China Sea, infringing upon the 1982 UNCLOS.

Now there is peace for economic development, but if any country has great ambitions, war is inevitable, at that time it will decide who will control the East Sea.

Back then they can only bring the construction materials from the mainland through ship, that made the expanding progress very slow. So yes, they are copying the Chinese by copying their game-changing technology (how ironic). But no, i dont think they are copying the Chinese in term of expanding the island, its just their progress in the past is really slow.

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.

No there isn't. "Vietnam builds the islands on their water boundary " - Are you even listening to yourself? What is "water boundary"?? It's a made-up word. There are only two types of maritime claims recognized under the international law: the EEZ (Exclusive Economic Zone, 200 miles from shore) and Territorial Waters (12 miles). *The shoals Vietnam is building artificial Islands upon are mostly NOT within Vietnam's EEZ. (Of the 27 features Vietnam is undertaking land reclamation at, only 4 fall within Vietnam's EEZ.)* In fact Vietnam and China share something in common: they both try to claim uninhabited shoals and atolls outside of their EEZ and territorial water. Such claims are NOT legitimate under the international law. In contrast, all claims made by the Philippines are within the country's EEZ. In other words, *there is a BIG DIFFERENCE between Philippine's claim and China/Vietnam's claims but not too much difference between China's claim and Vietnam's claim.* *Both China and Vietnam are resorting to some "ancient maps" as the "proof" that they have certain "historical rights" out side of their EEZs, on the basis of which they draw some arbitrary "boundaries" over the international water.* The problem is such "historical rights" ARE NOT valid by the standard of modern international law. The "boundaries" drawn by China and Vietnam are NOT recognized by any countries other than themselves. *Philippines is the only country whose claims are consistent with the International Law.*

Vietnam does a fantastic job defending its mountains and jungles, but it's not going to defeat China in the open sea. "Guerilla ocean warfare" isn't really a thing, especially when you only have 6 Russian submarines designed in the 1970s. Then again, Vietnam could try sinking Chinese submarines by building docks for them to tie up to and just waiting patiently.

As a filipino I dont see any threats from vietnam doing claims in the south china sea as long as they do not goes into their limits. Unlike to china that they harrased fishermens, ramming boats, firing water cannon, and lasers.

Why is the Philippines pretending to be innocent? The Philippines keeps entering the boundary drawn by China, entering with planes and showing off by taking photos! Then why doesn't China sprinkle aluminum powder on Philippine planes? Why does the Philippines stop its ships in the disputed area?

The problem with Vietnam is that it has a land border with China, so if a conflict were to arise, Vietnam has more possibilities of harming China than the Philippines, and therefore China is more cautious with Vietnam.

They just doing one at a time and Philippines was the weaker one. Still is. US is doing nothing. But, China already fought Vietnam over this many times I think back in the 90’s with many lives lost. I don’t know if it’s fake, but there are videos of them being gunned down in the water.

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.

In 1789, the Qing invaded Vietnam with 290,000 troups but were dealt an crushing defeat suffering 150,000 casualties. That marks the beginning of the Nguyen dynasty which lays claim on the Paracel and Spratly archipelagos and organizes a stable and durable administration. In contrast during the Qing dynasty, China was an inward looking country completely ignoring its surrounding seas. The South China Sea never deserved a mention in China, then came communist China in 1949 which sets about claiming the majority of the SCS in an expansionist effort. China was helped in its effort by Kissinger, a US top diplomat and China proponent. Undoubtedly the person most strongly associated with China's attempt to seize the SCS is Xi Jinping who professes to have the SCS to crown the PRC's centenary in 2049 and satisfy his vanity. However Vietnam will do everything to thwart China's attempt, it is quietly building up its capability to deal China a "Dien Bien Phu" at sea if the situation arises. The first "Dien Bien Phu" was to see the back of French occupation in 1954, the second one referred to the victory over American bombing of Hanoi when over 30 B-52s were shot down. The International Court in the Hagues has rejected claims that the SCS belonged to China since ancient times and UNCLOS 1982 rules that countries are entitled to 200 miles EEZ but China makes a mockery of international law by virtue of its perceived overwhelming naval power as people says "Might Gives Right". China hopes to intimidate other claimants to the SCS islands but Vietnam is not having any of that, it has shown many times in the past it can take on much more powerful adversaries and win.

@@pablononescobar Vietnam ultimately withdrew from Cambodia as a condition for normalized China-Vietnam relations in the 90s. And Vietnam has its four no's policy prohibiting them from making defense pacts like what they did with the Soviet Union in the 70s and 80s. In the long-term and strategically, Vietnam made such concessions to China likely due to VCP-CCP ideological ties and economic needs. This is all something US policymakers have to navigate when competing with China in Southeast Asia. China has spent decades establishing influence in SE Asia and it's not as easy as just dangling money and equipment to get them to change.

There is no such thing as artificial islands of vietnam. What you see are the natural islands of vietnam that have been expanded, they are not artificial. Artificial islands are something that is completely built from under the coral reefs that are submerged under the water like china has done.
