Russia never ally their political interest toward any nation after Soviet collapse, best to play both side of the fence to protect their own interest.
It was a valid challenge to you. The Chinese are building permanent structures to your islands, and yet, you conveniently ignore that.
Indian don't want to be excluded out of the southeast Asian, Indian of course want to get in the mix but their economy and military prevent them to be more assertive relate to the SCS issue. Too many reasons for Indian not to get involves in southeast Asian, Economy and trade, mineral resource, and military engagement.
The problem is your President Benigno Aquino III, China has proposed to co-develop the oil and gas fields in SCS years ago, but he refused, instead he is joining the US encirclement against China.
Furthermore, his administration was provoking China's sovereignty in order to cover up their incompetence in the domestic policy.
Aquino III has chosen to be China's enemy, so don't blame for China's coming aggression.
I think we should stop importing Filipino maid to destroy their economy. Because Hilipino economy equals maid and banana exporting.
Because his country is too coward to face China, but instead they will shoot more unarmed Taiwanese fishermen.

Now the Chinese are claiming Batanes Islands as part of Taiwan based on the dashed line.
Hey whats up capt hows the mental hospital your staying in? they have Wifi that's nice
Yes, you are right. really, In my mind pilipine equals maid and banana. I feel sorry for Taiwan goverment, they are sit on by banana even obviously Taiwan has much more might militory power than banana country.
Fancy way for you to ignore the pressing concern. So again what are you going to do false flagger wanna be American. BTW we Americans do not resort to racist remarks which you often lace your response. So do us a favor and respect our flag by removing it from your avatar. Your use of our flag is simply revolting.
I kindly hope that our Vietnamese posters in this forum are restraint from over-hype our military power. As one of our General recently has said: "Vietnam only buys enough equipment to protect itself." Indeed everything we have in our arsenals is defensive type. Vietnam does not want to cause trouble. Our military purchases are pegged to be less than Indonesia, Malaysia,Thailand, and even Singapore so no country in the ASEAN has reason to worry about our build-ups. However, we always send a strong signal that Vietnam is not to be messed with. Any superpowers attacking us will lose an arm and a leg. That's been working well to deter Expansionists from the North or anywhere else. Of course, our strength is many times less than PRC, or ROC but that's not to be worry too much. PRC and ROC need all that toys to face each other. PRC also has to face everyone from Russia, USA, Japan, to India, especially their own peasants plus independent movements from Tibet and Uyghur. Therefore, PRC cannot afford a severe losses to Vietnam.
I hope some of us stop using the same grandiose languages the Chinese posters have been using. We have the strong of our moral argument so we don't need to sink to their level. Vietnam should learn something from Indians and the way Gandhi gained his country independence. India is now partner with many countries from East to West. India has a strong military but no one in the world hates India except China and Pakistan. Compare that achievement with China's and we see that cultures and policies lead to different results. Confucianism is great for self defense against invaders but it's also a poison by its imperialist ideas. China is suffering from that, and Vietnam needs to resist from doing the same.
Back to this issue, I can see Chinese Central Government jumps in glee by the death of its brother's citizen. They jumped the gun to issue "barbaric" condemnation against Philippines although the incident did not involve its citizens nor happened in their b.s.cow-tongue (Nine Dash) claimed. They did this for 3 reasons:
1) Divert attentions away from PRC shooting of Vietnamese boats, repeated aggressive actions of cutting lines of foreign survey ships from India's to USA's, repeated unlawful arrest of Vietnamese and Filipinos fishing boats in their respective territories, repeated harassment of Vietnamese and Filipinos fishermen, and repeated acts of compromising Philippines territories in the Scarborough Reefs
2) Drive a wedge between a untied front of nations battling against PRC's expansionism and total control in SCS including Vietnam, Philippines, Taiwan, ASEAN countries and even India. This is the most crafty attack yet in Chinese deception: dividing your opponents. This is part of Sun Tzu's book that Chinese has learnt by heart
3) Boosting PRC's moral to replicate the same incident in the SCS right now. In fact this is part of their game plans when they sent 32 hundred-ton-"fishing boats" with an 4,000 tons tanker and a 1,500 tons escort ship to the Spratly Islands (Some "civilian shipping trip" that is!! )
With these three reasons, I hope Vietnamese, Filipinos, Taiwanese, and Indian posters understand this deception and have appropriate responses. Of course, false flaggers know who they are
So what is the effective counter-measure to that crafty trick from the PRC during similar incident? Vietnam seems to have made a good plan. For example, during the invasion of 32 'fishing ships," Vietnamese newspapers told a story of single brave Vietnam fishing boat facing the Chinese's army. This leads me to remember Tiananmen Square with that one brave man against a tank column. Vietnamese boat moved very close to PRC's convoy, dangerously diverted their course outside of Vietnam's territories. The single act also delayed their illegal fishing plan for a day. That's how you deal with cunning foes: using guts to contain them.
