What are you talking,' Want so badly ', it is a sovereignty issue.
Thanks for sharing.
Natural resurs and trading thats why
Everybody fished and traveled through the SCS.
It would be like Italy claiming 90% of the Mediterranean Sea as a legacy of the Roman Empire.
Fun Fact: there are no islands in the SCS that were settled and developed by any nation.
You are correct. South China Seas is international waters and those islands are too small to support life. I think the 1982 UNCLOS has actually caused the conflict because now the Chinese can’t fish anymore in most of the South China Seas and there is also oil and gas reserves that countries are fighting for.
@@Dept246 Yes and even calling them islands would be a stretch.....more like rocky out croppings.
" everybody fish and travels thru'.…" do you know how vast oceans are?? You're saying this SCS thru' a A4 size paper...? China claimed ownership of those reefs/islets . China does not BLOCK any ships from passing!!! Hundreds of merchant ships sail thru' here in any given hour --
It's got China right in the name.
@@ssrae-2229 And what gives China the right to even claim undeveloped and unsettled spits of land in the SCS?
A hand drawn map?🤔
As for non-interference, it doesn't seem to apply to Filipino fisherman fishing in their own EEZ in the Spratlys and Scarborough Shoals in the SCS.
"To conquer the World, China must first conquer South East Asia." _[Mao Zedong]. His statement to the Chinese people should explain everything.
Like the saying said you don't always geet what you want
china is extremely applying maximum tolerance to all SEA nations. the US needs to now fulfill its long term plan to engage china since it was conceived in the 1950's hence it maintained its military bases in japan, south korea, taiwan, and now returning to the philippines. it spent a lot of anti china propaganda and forcing escalation of all conflicts against china to get its goal of war with china as it can no longer catch up with the economic progress and competence of china.
China is a huge land mass with only a small strip of sea along the South China Sea as compared to countries like Japan, Indonesia and the Philippines which have the vast Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean on their opposite side which means any enemy approach on their land from these oceans, they have more distance to react. Unlike China, if any enemy approach from the South China Sea, the enemy can easily reach their shores in no time if China is not careful or alert. More outreach to the South China Sea would be better protection for their southern region. I see Vietnam in similar light.
The Sth China sea is one of the largest marginal seas of the west pacific with a surface area of 3.5 million square kilometres.
It is not a small strip of sea.
@@johnm7267 when you have a US supersonic nuclear submarine lurking around and looks like it can go berserk anytime, it is a small strip of sea.
Nope your wrong, Philippines has already a map in 1500s which shows West Philippines sea is for Philippines , China just made their own map of South China sea last year.
It's a big liar not the northen han but during han dynasty there was a country call Nanyue to day it's Viet nam we yue peoples are the first sea fare in south easten sea as we call it not china sea that is what the westen who gave it's name,Nanyue a the first who traid with south east asia not the chinese to day. the phillipine call it westen sea so it have nothing to do with china taiwan have nerve belongin to china erther . chinese before the ming dynasty have nothing to do with the sea the spratly and the paracel belongin to Vietnam we were the first nation to draw it on the country map in the 1700 centery because of the civil war so Vietnam dont have the mean to protect our teritory,now china get stronger china just take what china want that why not a country in the area trust china..
It is not south china sea correct your video they are travelling to the atoll and reef near the philippines they are squatting in the philippines not china because its is never china look at the map edit your video
show your proof,1700 that was already listed as Philippines sovereign.pls.be honest
Because the chinese is so greedy
You doesn't understand what is sovereignty, you are such a naive guy living a naive life, saying the Chinese are greedy, you are like a child asking for mother's milk when the brain is still undeveloped and just that nothing is in the brain
What a stupid video. China doesn’t “Want” the Sth China sea, it is there for everyone to use. It is the main trade route in and out of China. If China stops shipping it strangles its economy, so America saying they are there to keep the SCS open for shipping is nonsense, China is not closing it and has never impeded shipping. I saw a debate where some journalist hack implied that China was impeding shipping in the SCS. The Chinese said China had never done that and challenged this journalist to give him one example. He couldn’t
China evl
Greed knows no boundaries 😳😳😳
Before 7dash line, now 11dash line and in the future 20dash line 😅😅😅
South China Sea is also a tactical location for building a huge Naval fleet to take the whole world.
Fake history😂😂😂
Most negative comments here are based on lack of understanding ancient China history. In the past decades, US threatening China with war is a major incentive for China to assert its historical claims.
But historical ownership also can change hands. If you have owned a property for many years, you may not own it as soon as you give your property to a new owner, such as China gave its land to Russia.
What China want most in the Pacific Ocean is oil and fish.
China interest is not root history connection but expectation rich resources in that area. Even before Philippine become independent out from colonizer in 1945 our fishermen reach more than disputes islands almost in vietnam sea boundary and almost in Taiwan too but the China never regular claim nor send battleahip patrolling the trade route there engagement in world back in Deng Xiaping Economic Reformation in the 80s! Then China become economic success in the 90s then in military in 20 century then they BEGIN TO OCCUPY THE SO NAME SOUTH CHINA SEA.
China recognize and member of UN so laws need to acknowledge by China. There excuse "no intervention by other country like U.S." But China clever intervene other countries pro China by means of military armament send it.
Becoz it is part of China n agreed by US after the WW2 😂😢😅
Why China want South "China" sea? What??? They have been there for thousands of years!
Delusion is so funny though, apparently south east Asian are Chinese, have they asked who taught the Chinese how to navigate the south China sea or where their original boat design came from 😂😂start digging that history books 🤣🤣
We Chinese have been in the region of The South China Sea for thousand of years, there are more than 400 million people of Chinese origin living in Vietnam, Malaysia, Phillipines, Indonesia etc. Not to speak on Taiwan which is a province of China. All the islands in The South China Sea were discovered by us Chinese thousand of years back in history. The 7 dash lines made by the Nationalist China under my granduncle, general Chiang Kai Shek in 1947 are the evidence and something that is internationally recognized, and it is also the reason why the whole sea region is called The South China Sea. The New China has recently legally marked this region with her 9 dashlines, instead of the previous 7 dashlines. This region of sea is still called The South China Sea, so your guys stop arguing that this regian does not belong to China !!!
haaaaa ......... sure
So the Indian Ocean is belongs to India 😂because of the Name?😂😂😂
What if china discovered nine dashline ? It means even not yours the territory belongs to china because china was the one discovered the nine dashline? You're very far from west Philippines sea compared to Philippines. And Philippines won the arbitration of the International law.
Whatever! Your salami slice and delusional dash-"lie"
Very weak your argument and false historical blah!blah!.full of lies invented by CCP
because it's china's
You greed chinese
