PLAAF attacks Philippines Air Force and prepares to fight other SEA nations

[siegecrossbow]

Stop posting misleading topics! Buzzing is not the same as attacking!

 

[A1Kaid]

Maybe the "buzz" was so strong that it constitutes as an "attack"... lol

 

[siegecrossbow]

On the plus side PLAAF is finally taking stronger actions against intruders to Chinese air space.

Maybe the world will see the rise of the Hong Wu Dynasty in China...lol

Philippines began by exploring oil in Chinese EEZ waters. Then China began to send coast guard ships to intecept.

Then Philippines escalated by sending in their air force bomber to threaten China's coast guard ships.

Now China is sending in PLAAF to do the job. I say go straight to 2nd Artillery on their naval bases.

Thank god, you're not in charge of anything.

Are you talking about that "end of the world" prediction?

PLAAF has attack Philippines Air Force aircraft above China's Nansha Islands. China is teaching Philippines a lesson about stealing.

So Phillippines is taking stealing lessons from China nowadays?

Good Lord!

I think the Filipinos are good people and most of their educated people and business class view China positively. It isn't a serious threat, I think.

And judging by some of the comments in the huge comment section, some people at least are taking it in a light hearted way.

Perhaps these Chinese pilots who ‘buzzed’ our guys [lot of bee news today- no?] just wanted to take a closer look because they’d never see a bi-plane before……….ouch!

They might mistake our antiques to be UFOs.

Buzzing is not an attack. Aircraft from various countries do it all the time.

And no, it's not power that comes out of a barrel of a gun. It's kinetic energy.

Our indian friends should learn to use this kinetic energy, they have a serious shortage of energy!

China offers ASEAN joint effort to counter piracy

China has offered to hold joint patrols with ASEAN countries to escort vessels from the region crossing the Gulf of Aden in the wake of rampant Somali piracy.

“China offered [ASEAN countries] a coordinated convoy to escort merchant vessels crossing the Gulf of Aden for their safety. If any ASEAN countries are willing to be part of that convoy headed by China‘s Navy, they should let China know,” Malaysian Defense Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi told a press conference in Jakarta on Friday on the sidelines of the ASEAN Defense Ministers’ Meeting.

Hamidi said the offer was made by the Chinese delegation during an informal breakfast meeting limited to defense ministers.

Indonesian Defense Ministry secretary-general Eris Herryanto said although he did not know anything about the offer, it was possible for Indonesia to join coordinated patrols as long as “we share a common interest and respect each other”.

As part of the important Suez Canal shipping route, the Gulf of Aden waterway in the Middle East sees 21,000 ships crossing annually.

The International Maritime Bureau Piracy Reporting Center, a Malaysia-based non-governmental organization, said in a report dated April 28, 2011, that there were 173 attacks of piracy and 23 hijackings worldwide since early this year. Those attacks involved 26 vessels and 518 hostages.

It is estimated that piracy has cause the world community to suffer between US$13 billion and $16 billion in annual losses.

Indonesia has not been excepted from pirate attack. Twenty sailors on board the Indonesia-flagged cargo ship MV Sinar Kudus were taken hostage by Somali pirates for 46 days before PT Samudera Indonesia, the owner of the vessel, paid a ransom to the pirates earlier this month.

Legal expert and veteran Indonesian diplomat Hashim Djalal and University of Indonesia security expert Andi Widjajanto agreed that the Chinese offer was a good option to reinforce the fight against piracy.

“We should remember that [the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea] requires all countries to prevent and fight pirates,” Hashim said. “[Therefore] ASEAN countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand that have suffered attacks by Somali pirates should consider China’s offer.”

Andi said command of the joint patrols would likely be in the hands of China, which has the biggest fleet of ships, and the ideal area of operation would be as far as Oman’s waters in the north, Madagascar’s waters in the south and all coastal areas in the western part of the Indian Ocean.

Thirteen Indonesians are still being held hostage by pirates along with the crew of the hijacked Singapore-flagged vessel MT Gemini.

However, Indonesian Defense Minister Purnomo Yusgiantoro said that the crew was alright.

What a ridiculous thread title.

Since when was "buzzing" the same as an "attack"?

Read the articles closely. This "buzzing" caused the Philippines Air Force to back off and leave Chinese airspace. This is only possible if the PLAAF executed very aggressive maneuvers like going behind enemy's 6 o'clock and locking on with missiles without actually firing.

Of course I deliberately chose the word "attack" because there is no shame in attacking an intruder who has violated your sovereignty. I'm not going to use some silly euphemism like "buzzing" whatever that means. China needs to protect its own interests and damn anybody who tries to point fingers at us for doing so.

This is the fighting spirit that Chairman Mao taught us in the 1950's and 1960's
