China's first deep-water rig to drill in South China Sea

[shuttler]

The Chinese don't even call it the "South China Sea." They call it the "South Sea." It was the British who mapped it as SCS and the ocean facing South Asia, the "Indian Ocean."

I think "South Sea" is for our internal reference. The sea navigation is free for all. Only the islands and the resources belong to us within the designated boundary!

Hehehe, it's not easy for another ASEAN nation to join in China's side(except Laos-Cambodia are always in our side)

Then i wish you good luck for that.

The pix of the floating oil rigs are magnificent!

When does our floating fishing factory start sailing towards SCS? I want my first bite of great lobster sushi from there!

we need more of these rigs.
we need to develop a national coast guard.

Yes. We need them to be set up along the "nine dash lines" where there is potential oil reserves!

I think our "漁政船" is equivalent to " national coast guard"?!

The rig was designed and manufactured by Petroleum Equipment Assembly and Metal Structure JSC (PVC-MS) and is the largest oil platform in Vietnam with a total weight of over 14,000 tonnes.

Symtoms:
indians: psychedelic complexities grown out of long time jealousy, hate, envy and self-pity
vietnamese: fear and paranoid
pinoys: to be identified
us: none of my business
.
Actually I prefer the rig to go deeper into the SCS!
