Philippines accuses Chinese vessels of 'dangerous manoeuvres' in contested South China sea

The Philippines has accused Chinese vessels of carrying out "dangerous manoeuvres" in a disputed area of the South China Sea in the latest maritime flare-up between the two neighbors. The Philippine coast guard said in a statement that it had been carrying out a routine rotation and resupply mission near Ayungin Shoal, known in China as Ren’ai Reef, when its vessels were approached by eight Chinese boats. It claimed the Chinese boats "jeopardized" the safety of the crew members aboard the Philippine vessels but did not detail how. It claimed the incident had involved four Chinese coast guard vessels and four Chinese "maritime militia" boats. The incident comes just weeks after the Philippines accused Chinese coast guard ships of firing water cannons at its vessels as they tried to resupply troops stationed on the same shoal in the Spratly Islands chain, known in China as the Nansha Islands.

What that makes it obviously true on the level  of growing resentment and annoyance of all ASEAN head-of-state towards China being the troublemaker of Asia  --- is the latter's  unfriendly communist-oriented expansionism -- through it's self-declared nine-dash-line  balloon map combined with military "badly occupying" island built-up which are not even China's territories.


And to refuse understanding with naive arguement what that trigger China's aggressions --- was due to the ever presence of US power in the Pacific region. Is a poor primitive narrative.
