Here's a fresh news story on how Vietnam is taking a stand against China's act of bringing a $1 Billion giant oil rig within Vietnam's East Sea.
The Philippines should follow Vietnam's example of toughness and fortitude in fighting for its territory;
"Each day the Vietnamese ships tried to get close to the rig. And each day they were driven back by the much larger Chinese ships.
"But before they sped away, laboring engines spewing black smoke, the Vietnamese delivered a message: “Attention! Attention! We are warning you about your provocative act,” blasted out a recording from a loudspeaker in Vietnamese, Chinese and English. “We demand you respect Vietnam's sovereignty. Please immediately halt your activities and leave Vietnamese waters.”
"Occasionally colliding with or firing water cannons at each other, Vietnamese and Chinese ships have been shadow boxing in a sun-dazzled patch of the South China Sea since May 1, when Beijing parked a hulking, US$1 billion deep sea oil rig, drawing a furious response from Vietnam."
