Man, I miss the simpler times when Southeast Asian kingdoms and tribes used to traverse along the West Philippine Sea to raid the coastal towns of mainland East Asia CENTURIES BEFORE any Chinese state had a proper navy. (Even before the reign of the Ming dynasty). The waters of Southeast Asia BELONG to the SOUTHEAST ASIAN COUNTRIES.
Not just south asean seas, but also the west philippine sea want china to claim as their sea. The island shown in this video with military base of china is thousand miles away from china and that island is part of west philippine sea which just hundred miles away.
"If one day China should change her color and turn into a superpower, if she too should play the tyrant in the world, and everywhere subject others to her bullying, aggression and exploitation, the people of the world should identify her as social-imperialism, expose it, oppose it and work together with the Chinese people to overthrow it.” Deng Xiaoping speech at the United Nations, April 10, 1974
I agree fully with Deng Xiaoping. China is doing exactly the same thing that the US, Israel and European allies have been doing for so many years now. Invading and illegally colonizing other nations land. Stealing precious resources based on false flags like WMD and 911 . Intimidation through economic sanctions and unjustified military actions. Bullying of smaller nations ......So what is wrong? China just follow the pace! at least China is not manufacturing false flags to attack any other country.

Chinese claimed all South China sea because they said they are the owner, and Chinese Claimed some border of India because they said they are the owner as well, the latest Chinese claimed the Origin of KIMCHI because they said they are the 1st who invented of that food, MEANWHILE THEY NEVER CLAIMED the origin of the COVID-19?

I really need another one of this where they focus on the artificial islands China made inside ASEAN countries EEZ and how it will impact China and its neighbors and seemingly the world, in the process.
I'm scared that the South China Sea dispute is just a taste for what's to come on resource scarcity on a global scale. For hundreds of years the competition for resources have always been a trigger for war. Who's to say that the depleting resources in the world (e.g., due to overconsumerism and global development) won't lead to even more conflict in the future?
As the fossil fuels becoming out of favour due to climate changes, l think the chances for war is remote. China has been using SCS to trade with ASEAN and even Arabic nations more than a thousand years, and using those islets for typhoon shelter etc. They have the right to proclaim in 1929. The Pacific Ocean is carved up by western powers and Sulu Sea joining Malaysia is solo to Philippine only! Why?
As a Pilipino citizen I have a very important request to all soldiers in. Phillipine allied countries that before going to war if this will happen pls.pls..put God ist in your dangerous job . should know to pray for God's protection and guidance & safe always have a great focus on this hard situation now ...God bless all soldiers can come back safe and alive to there family & relatives ..God bless.

Well, it's a fact that islands are first come first take policy.China found them first And documented. It's better for involved countries to work out acollaboration deal,Than to change the law. Also sea is open for anyone to sail through as long as not very close to islands.
An old empire never forgets its glory; ask the Brits. They taught the Argentinians who was and is the owner of M. Island. Distance, time and international interests are never the issue, the relative strength of Britain’s navy decides who can claim. China will be no 1, like it or not, so its 500 year old historical claim (before Columbus claimed islands in America) will have to be met again some day, by governments of the mainland or Taiwan.
the Falkland Islands was a colonial claim, the South China Sea was a claim by the explorer Captain Zheng of the Ming empire, 50 yrs ahead of the western maritime explorations.
All China's claims were false. They presented their claims in the court but unfortunately they lost the legal battle. Their historical claims were just made up to justify their stance. But you know court people and experts are not stupid. Law is law and China should abide if they want peace in the region. Respect other countries' territories.
I love how Vietnam fight for their seas. Some people in my country fight for it too but their influence and backing were not much as the one who has more which is pretty sad. If China succeeded, then it’s neighboring countries won’t be able to regain their rights on their seas anymore. UNCLOS should’ve stand their ground and do what they have to do.
i come from Vietnam and i remembered in 2015 we fought against China on Facebook, Twitter so serious that at that time i was in grade 8 but i changed my facebook's avatar to contribute to our fight, too! thank you so much
As a Chinese, I will share my view on the issue so you know a little bit of what a normal Chinese thinks. Our claim is historical and not on based on what resources to be extracted from the area. We don't want to prohibit anyone from entering the sea, we just don't want foreign military entering our territory. Personally, I don't care if we aren't allowed to extract ANYTHING from the area at all, just recognition is enough.
@@talibandadofpakistan7075 There is a fundamental difference between your argument and mine, Chinese historical claim was based on the treaty of san Francisco after WW2, at the time, most south east asian countries didn't exist yet, and no one lived on those islands, so according to international law the first one to claim it has the rights to it, the genghis khan argument is invalid because, one, international law didn't exist at the time, two, Chinese people lived in china

The alarming militarization rate of China and their growing aggressive stance in the South China Sea and neighboring ASEAN countries despite their rhetoric of non-aggression is appaling. US have hastily withdrawn troops in Afganistan, sent 2 nuclear submarines to SCS for the first time and the formation of QUAD and strengthening ties with ASEAN. Do you think US will let China easily takeover its supremacy? I dont think so. If you want peace, prepare for war.
How is China being aggressive if their security depends on able to access beyond the first island chain. If you country's survival and long term prosperity depend on securing this thing, you will be extremely stupid not to try to fight for it. But fighting for it does not have to be violent and while China lay stakes to some islands in SCS, the most we have seen is unfortunate skirmishes being blown out of proportion (deliberately mostly by western media). Seem like we like to talk about everyone's security concerns and not about China's. If you only look at your own needs and ignore everyone else, you are always going to sleepwalk into a war like what America does every time. If you want peace, learn to look at things from each other's perspectives and negotiate in good faith. Or else, you are just guaranteeing you are going to war. This kind of one-sided and arrogant perspective is the bread and butter of western countries, and should not be adopted by SE Asia.
Those who have studied sea power theory and understand modern finance all know that the United States is for hegemony, not for justice. When you talk about Taiwan, it seems that no country has diplomatic relations with Taiwan. At least your report should be in line with the diplomatic reality of your country.
In 1947, the government of the Republic of China drew a nine-dash line and drew up a map of the locations of the islands in the South China Sea. It set our southernmost territory at 4 degrees north latitude and included the Zengmu Shoal within the territorial line. At that time, this U-shaped line or nine-dash line was to indicate the scope of our jurisdiction to the international community and list a territorial line. I think the nine-dash line should be an island ownership line. China should finalize the legal status of the nine-dash line as soon as possible, otherwise there will be endless consequences. Because Vietnam has announced its law of the sea, this is very detrimental to us, because the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea only stipulates a 200-nautical-mile exclusive economic zone, but it does not specify how the 200-nautical-mile exclusive economic zone should be drawn. This requires relevant countries to formulate their own basic maritime laws to solve the problem.
You guys clearly stated that in many cases, China's claim to the 'South China Sea' was dismissed or rejected, but why do you still refer it as that? Wouldnt i dont know, like West Phillipine Sea or the actual internationally acknowledged name to it better to use as reffering to it?
as the first ever major contry to be notice back in the colonial age china said it is the sea of china as so the west writen it as SCS but they never truely explore the vast ocean and back then is a diffrent situation now today is called the china sea because of back then
@@N0_F1le how can china claim back then when china was never a country then but slaves to foreign forces such as the Qing of the manchu and mongolian yuan
China building military bases on Islands in its own backyard (where Chinese have been using for centuries before anyone else were there) it's "unacceptable for the United States." While US has built 400 military bases with nukes aiming at China, encircling China.
technically if you plot the EEZ 200 nautical miles of every country's coastline on the map, some boundaries really overlaps. In the case of China and Vietnam they are entitled to have another 200 miles (400 in total) because of their continental shelf and the overlapping increases. Now if you build an island in the middle of the sea, your EEZ will again be extended. There are really gray areas in that UNCLOS and this really translate to disputes.
@@garymartin9777 eez is not territorial waters. Now unclos territorial waters is only 12 miles. China had made reservation to unclos 2006 to protect their exsisting territorial soveriegn before unclos. That means the 11 dash sea is exempted While philipine had not made reservation. This means their original territorial sea limit stipulated in the treaty of paris, 118° meridian is no more when they ratifed unclos. Now is only 12 miles from philipines borders.
warning: history is always hard to judge. rule and truth is revised by strong economic power. this point is constantly happening since the first day of human existed
Vietnamese already continously administrated both of 2 these islands since 17th century and no single country except VN claimed those at that time. Both of Paracel and Spratly were belong to Indochina/Annam colony of France, so after getting independence, Vietnam had full right to take these 2 islands back obviously. And South Vietnam did that and exercised legal control over these 2 islands until China came illegally in 1974 and 1988. And I want to make it clear that Vietnam does not claim entire SCS, we only claim our 200 nautical mile EEZ + our these 2 islands which lay outside of our EEZ( but as I said EEZ can't apply for islands). Even a lot of messy problems arising until now after Chinese came and some other countries claimed based on EEZ, hope Vietnam and other countries involving can avoid conflict as much as possible More detail about San Francisco Conference : The conference was joined by 51 countries around the world. This is the piece treaty of UN attempt to return all colonies to its initial country after WW2, and as a result, this treaty formed hundred of nowadays countries in the world. In the treaty Japan had to return all colonies back to original countries. Both of China and Vietnam asserted their claim on Hoàng Sa( Paracel Islands ) and Trường Sa ( Spratly Islands ) but China's claim was rejected by 45 out of 51 countries whereas Tran Van Huu, Prime Minister of Bao Dai’s government of Vietnam stated that “in order to annul the seeds of possible disputes, we claim our sovereignty over Hoang Sa and Truong Sa archipelagos”. No objections were raised nor any reservations made against his statement at the conference. France, in the victory side, also asserted the sovereignty of both of Paracel and Spratly Islands are belong to Annam of Vietnamese because Japan took over them from France. Hoàng Sa and Trường Sa was belong to South Vietnam from 1956 to 1974 and the entire UN, except China nor Russia, recognized and didn't oppose to them. In 1974 China illegally fought and invaded Hoàng Sa ( Paracel Islands) and fought Trường Sa (Spratly Islands) in 1988, but it could only occupy small part of Spratly Islands.
chinese maritime front yard? do you know how far your voracious country and claiming the entire south china sea? or you also have difficulties in computing distance...
Some mistakes or missing informations here: - Taiwan is not a country - The ROC aka Taiwan has long had an 11-dash line - Not only China had disputes with its neighbours. The other ones have them too (especially Vietnam and the PH) - Where is the proof, that the constructions on the islands are used for military purposes?

The US may not be a signatory to the UN UNCLOS but China is. The way China authorities blindly lies and deceive their citizen to obey and believe what they say is outrageous and deplorable. I had a lady co worker in Blaine WA and at the height of protestations by nations like Vietnam and my home country, the Philippines, I patiently explained to her the exclusive economic zone right of any country which 200 miles from their shoreline which is a law of the sea under the UN (UNCLOS), both China and Philippines are signatories and should abide by it. The Philippines and other Nations abide by it and China don't. They should only claim 200 miles of the sea, but no, they steal others EEZ (exclusive economic zone) rights because they are mighty.

(Even before the reign of the Ming dynasty).

Invading and illegally colonizing other nations land. Stealing precious resources based on false flags like WMD and 911 . Intimidation through economic sanctions and unjustified military actions.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
00:00 🌊 The South China Sea dispute involves competition for oil, gas, fish, and vital shipping lanes, with China aiming to control it, while other countries claim rights.
00:55 🚢 China's desire to control the South China Sea is driven by its need for trade routes, resources, and economic growth, leading to competition with neighboring countries and the US.
02:06 🗺️ China's historical "nine dash line" and expansionist appetite explain its territorial claims in the South China Sea, which are motivated by significant trade and energy interests.
03:21 🏴☠️ China employs military strategies and territorial control, including building outposts and reclaiming land, to secure access to the South China Sea, raising tensions with the US.
06:26 ⚖️ Legal disputes have arisen, with an international tribunal invalidating China's territorial claims in the South China Sea, while ASEAN seeks a Code of Conduct to manage tensions.
08:31 🌏 The South China Sea dispute remains a high-stakes issue with potential for military confrontation, and it's a complex challenge involving multiple parties and interests.

As the fossil fuels becoming out of favour due to climate changes, l think the chances for war is remote.
China has been using SCS to trade with ASEAN and even Arabic nations more than a thousand years, and using those islets for typhoon shelter etc. They have the right to proclaim in 1929. The Pacific Ocean is carved up by western powers and Sulu Sea joining Malaysia is solo to Philippine only! Why?

"If anyone's good at playing the long game, its China"
An old empire never forgets its glory; ask the Brits. They taught the Argentinians who was and is the owner of M. Island. Distance, time and international interests are never the issue, the relative strength of Britain’s navy decides who can claim. China will be no 1, like it or not, so its 500 year old historical claim (before Columbus claimed islands in America) will have to be met again some day, by governments of the mainland or Taiwan.
the Falkland Islands was a colonial claim, the South China Sea was a claim by the explorer Captain Zheng of the Ming empire, 50 yrs ahead of the western maritime explorations.
thousand years of Chinese invasion
The old China died with Mao's "Cultural Revolution", so actually, this China, is only about 70 years old.
All China's claims were false. They presented their claims in the court but unfortunately they lost the legal battle. Their historical claims were just made up to justify their stance. But you know court people and experts are not stupid. Law is law and China should abide if they want peace in the region. Respect other countries' territories.

We don't want to prohibit anyone from entering the sea, we just don't want foreign military entering our territory. Personally, I don't care if we aren't allowed to extract ANYTHING from the area at all, just recognition is enough.

如果美国准备好在南海跟中国和俄罗斯开战，先把11艘航母都开过太平洋
How is China being aggressive if their security depends on able to access beyond the first island chain. If you country's survival and long term prosperity depend on securing this thing, you will be extremely stupid not to try to fight for it. But fighting for it does not have to be violent and while China lay stakes to some islands in SCS, the most we have seen is unfortunate skirmishes being blown out of proportion (deliberately mostly by western media). Seem like we like to talk about everyone's security concerns and not about China's. If you only look at your own needs and ignore everyone else, you are always going to sleepwalk into a war like what America does every time.
If you want peace, learn to look at things from each other's perspectives and negotiate in good faith. Or else, you are just guaranteeing you are going to war. This kind of one-sided and arrogant perspective is the bread and butter of western countries, and should not be adopted by SE Asia.
7:00 **southeast..... okay SOUTHEAST!
Those who have studied sea power theory and understand modern finance all know that the United States is for hegemony, not for justice. When you talk about Taiwan, it seems that no country has diplomatic relations with Taiwan. At least your report should be in line with the diplomatic reality of your country.
2:20 the main reason for this conflict is because of the cartographer that drew the nine dash line
The Nine Dash Line 'map' is essentially propaganda. You think China would simply mind its own business without it?
In 1947, the government of the Republic of China drew a nine-dash line and drew up a map of the locations of the islands in the South China Sea. It set our southernmost territory at 4 degrees north latitude and included the Zengmu Shoal within the territorial line. At that time, this U-shaped line or nine-dash line was to indicate the scope of our jurisdiction to the international community and list a territorial line. I think the nine-dash line should be an island ownership line. China should finalize the legal status of the nine-dash line as soon as possible, otherwise there will be endless consequences. Because Vietnam has announced its law of the sea, this is very detrimental to us, because the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea only stipulates a 200-nautical-mile exclusive economic zone, but it does not specify how the 200-nautical-mile exclusive economic zone should be drawn. This requires relevant countries to formulate their own basic maritime laws to solve the problem.
If there is a country that does not follow international law, all countries should help to punish it
You guys clearly stated that in many cases, China's claim to the 'South China Sea' was dismissed or rejected, but why do you still refer it as that? Wouldnt i dont know, like West Phillipine Sea or the actual internationally acknowledged name to it better to use as reffering to it?

If the politicians were all required to fight in the front lines we'd have less wars if any.
China building military bases on Islands in its own backyard (where Chinese have been using for centuries before anyone else were there) it's "unacceptable for the United States." While US has built 400 military bases with nukes aiming at China, encircling China.
technically if you plot the EEZ 200 nautical miles of every country's coastline on the map, some boundaries really overlaps. In the case of China and Vietnam they are entitled to have another 200 miles (400 in total) because of their continental shelf and the overlapping increases. Now if you build an island in the middle of the sea, your EEZ will again be extended. There are really gray areas in that UNCLOS and this really translate to disputes.
Artificial islands are awarded neither territorial sea nor EEZ. There is no gray area on this.

Vietnamese already continously administrated both of 2 these islands since 17th century and no single country except VN claimed those at that time. Both of Paracel and Spratly were belong to Indochina/Annam colony of France, so after getting independence, Vietnam had full right to take these 2 islands back obviously. And South Vietnam did that and exercised legal control over these 2 islands until China came illegally in 1974 and 1988. And I want to make it clear that Vietnam does not claim entire SCS, we only claim our 200 nautical mile EEZ + our these 2 islands which lay outside of our EEZ( but as I said EEZ can't apply for islands). Even a lot of messy problems arising until now after Chinese came and some other countries claimed based on EEZ, hope Vietnam and other countries involving can avoid conflict as much as possible
More detail about San Francisco Conference :
The conference was joined by 51 countries around the world. This is the piece treaty of UN attempt to return all colonies to its initial country after WW2, and as a result, this treaty formed hundred of nowadays countries in the world. In the treaty Japan had to return all colonies back to original countries. Both of China and Vietnam asserted their claim on Hoàng Sa( Paracel Islands ) and Trường Sa ( Spratly Islands ) but China's claim was rejected by 45 out of 51 countries whereas Tran Van Huu, Prime Minister of Bao Dai’s government of Vietnam stated that “in order to annul the seeds of possible disputes, we claim our sovereignty over Hoang Sa and Truong Sa archipelagos”. No objections were raised nor any reservations made against his statement at the conference.
France, in the victory side, also asserted the sovereignty of both of Paracel and Spratly Islands are belong to Annam of Vietnamese because Japan took over them from France.
Hoàng Sa and Trường Sa was belong to South Vietnam from 1956 to 1974 and the entire UN, except China nor Russia, recognized and didn't oppose to them. In 1974 China illegally fought and invaded Hoàng Sa ( Paracel Islands) and fought Trường Sa (Spratly Islands) in 1988, but it could only occupy small part of Spratly Islands.
Wrong, actually China owns the Paracel and Spratly Islands and Vietnam tried to steal them from China. That's the fact!

Thank you Sandra, I am always watching your amazing presentation. I suggested last week to make a clip on a hot topic, you read my comments and did it. Thank you
Great respect and love!!
Well Explained Sandra and Al Jazeera Always No.1 in delivering simply..
I am Vietnamese. When I was a child, I had been taught that Paracel Islands and Spratly Islands which both are in the South China Sea belong to Vietnam and never believe in our neighbor - China. It also says one thing but does another.
Vietnam foriegn minister already agreed scs islands belongs to china. China even gave viet an islands.
@@John-us9rm fake new
@@ngocle9319 fake for those ignorant ones.
@@ngocle9319 Vietnam used to accept it, but now decided to go againts it. Vietnam was the reason 11 dash line becomes 9 dash line, it is quite weird for Vietnam to backtrack their policy.
@@John-us9rm lol write that down ,wriye that down
That actually china steal other island
Great report. I'm here watching from the cheap seats in Vietnam. Cheers! 😎👍
Gosh this editorial was well put together. It also bears the element of suspense. I was totally drawn in.
hi from Mexico. Thanks for that great explanation about the importance of the S. china sea and the tensions in the area. We make vids. here in Mexico
But the US does not comply with international conventions, either.
doesnt make it right. why cant china be the better person and comply???
@@DisHappah It's naive to personify the country. The world is not so harmonious. So it is unrealistic to expect big countries to sacrifice their own interests.
@@okfun54573 so you support dictatorship countries like China who bullies other Asian countries who can no longer fish or sail in their own waters? You’re ok with that? Do you even know what’s going on in these regions? It’s affected a lot of other Asian countries who can’t stand up to China military. Kinda like how other smaller countries in Europe couldn’t stand up against Hitler before WW2. Imagine if guys like you didn’t stand up to Hitler in WW2.
@@DisHappah Bad analogy. U can express ur opinion of course. But Hitler in ww2 killed many people While China didn't do that. You have your stand and China has its own. To accuse others as Hitler actually they aren't can not help to prove that u are on the right side or behalf of justice.
The US may not be a signatory to the UN UNCLOS but China is. The way China authorities blindly lies and deceive their citizen to obey and believe what they say is outrageous and deplorable. I had a lady co worker in Blaine WA and at the height of protestations by nations like Vietnam and my home country, the Philippines, I patiently explained to her the exclusive economic zone right of any country which 200 miles from their shoreline which is a law of the sea under the UN (UNCLOS), both China and Philippines are signatories and should abide by it. The Philippines and other Nations abide by it and China don't. They should only claim 200 miles of the sea, but no, they steal others EEZ (exclusive economic zone) rights because they are mighty. The lady insist that it is theirs because their leaders said so...just plain blind obedience.
there's only 1 word fit enough to answer the title.... *"CHINA"*
lol, we still hearing about UNCLOS, the US hasnt even signed that agreement
@@JasonC683 its more shameful and condemnable for part of china as one of the signatories but also a violator of the law of the sea
@@JasonC683 Thats becoz' obama was china's dog. How could he act againts his panda master 😂
XI : Mao told us ' Hiding wait chance to steal', later everywhere are South china sea.

@@SteveSails1 steal verb [I or T] (TAKE)
A2
to take something without the permission or knowledge of the owner and keep it:
She admitted stealing the money from her employers.
The number of cars which are stolen every year has risen.
They were so poor they had to steal in order to eat.

HOW IGNORANT PEOPLE ARE..AMAZING..
Get CHINA in a Straitjacket
PLEASE!!
too late. War is inevitable now, its just a matter of time.
@@esu2537 that is highly probable right now. Remember, Biden loves the CCP. That is a huge huge threat itself
Im from the Philippines and I just hope we could resolve this peacefully.
with ccp? not possible i think
In this case the Philippines is the agreesive one s c s was there for a long time no one has claim them .
It is hard to negotiate with someone that says what is ours is ours and what is yours is negotiable..
How can you negotiate with China when she already claims everything is hers ?
