Solomon Islands PM Wale “China is a good friend of Solomon Islands, but launching missiles at us is not something a friend does. Be our friend, but don’t threaten us” The only mistake here was calling China a friend. What China want is dominance over us. Not friendship

Chinese warship orders a Philippine patrol plane to leave "China’s waters." Philippines replied "Review your charts." They should’ve said, "Review your common sense" because these waters are 220 km from Philippines & 1000 km from China Clearly, China isn’t in its right mind

See, one China trawler can strip more fish in weeks than local fleets catch in months Now picture 10,000 of them, nonstop, year-round, ignoring recovery cycles and crowding waters near places like the Galápagos Islands This is eco-terrorism. And we’re still too quiet about it

Japan’s Defense Minister Koizumi warned at NATO meeting in Ankara that China’s military expansion & missile tests threaten regional security Months of China accusing Japan of militarism ended with Japan gaining more security partners. That plan worked brilliantly… for Japan.

Chinese “fishing” boats caught by the South Korean Coast Guard. Clearly aware they were trespassing without a license, the crews armed themselves with iron bars, erected barriers & used aggressive maneuvers to fend off law enforcement. Pirates behaving like pirates.

Japanese PM Takaichi Sanae being received by Vietnamese Prime Minister Lê Minh Hưng When China is trying so hard to paint Japan as the biggest aggressor in the region, Southeast Asia is strengthening ties with Tokyo. Safe to say China’s propaganda is failing miserably

A heavily armed Chinese fighter jet recklessly intercepted a Canadian patrol plane just 200m away during a UN mission in international airspace. A country that claims to be peaceful but sends missile-armed jets fully knowing there are civilians in there. West Philippine Sea

China MFA says that Japan’s PM, strengthening ties across Indo-Pacific, is lobbying & threatens peace China sounds genuinely offended that Asia’s democracies are coordinating on security. How dare they refuse to accept Chinese dominance as the natural order?

Four Chinese coast guard boats got humiliated and driven away by Taiwan after barging into restricted waters off Kinmen Island. These cowardly Chinese incursions are the real threat to peace. Backing down against their feeble intimidation would be surrender.

In 1998, Jiang Zemin said: “Even if China arms, we will never bully others or seek hegemony” 28 years later, China's doing exactly that. Bullying its neighbors and seeking regional hegemony simply because it has more military power than smaller countries
