1. Oh, buoy!

2. PRC was doing this exact thing in the Federated States of Micronesia a few years ago.

   What will it take for PRC to start considering other countries laws when they operate in them? This sort of behavior is destabilizing.

3. China’s actions in these waters sure aren’t in good faith or they’d have asked permission. What’s stopping Japan from shooting the buoy clean out of the water? Show(s) some backbone!

4. They should move it, send them a bill for the costs, and if it isn’t paid, raise tariffs until it is.

5. *Japan confirms removal of Chinese buoy by JMSDF infringing on Japanese maritime sovereignty over its southern shelf.*

   Next day’s headlines… or should be.

6. Great targeting practice for Japanese Navy.

   Not like they need any more training, they are insanely well trained as of it now, but its good to keep sharp.

7. Some country or NATO should just drop buoys all over their territory and claim it as not China’s. Just fuck with them

8. Blow it up

9. Steal it

10. Buoys should be treated like ships. Piracy measures should be enforced.

    For those interested, the kind of buoys being deployed are absolutely HUGE, approximately 7 meters diameter, 8 meters tall, full of ISR equipment, sensors, radio relays, cameras, computers. Maybe even satellite links, or sonar systems.

    It seems that the aim is to add physical substance to the imaginary dashes on the map.

    Google for images.
