  1. Chinese Coast Guard ships and other activities around a Philippine sand bar /island have the US and Philippines worried. China is newly asserting sovereignty and a 12 mile territorial line for it would conflict with several nations. This is on the eve of planned joint US and Philippine operations.

  2. China has an opening to make inroads in southeast Asia due to American trade policy, promptly kicks ball in own goal by making provocative claim in south China sea.
