Whatever, if you belive it belong to you all, then go to International court to debeate. in here, I only wanna prove that: PLAN-PLAAF are only good at Home parade and mouth fighting, that's why China only can have a small and unimportant part in SCS(east sea)
It's only "blah blah" for now. It will lead to a real Sino-Vietnamese war down the road. I guess the Vietnamese government has forgotten the lesson of 1979.
China devastated Vietnam in 1979

Aftermath
The legacy of the war is lasting, especially in Vietnam. The Chinese implemented an effective "scorched-earth policy" while retreating back to China.
They caused extensive damage to the Vietnamese countryside and infrastructure, through destruction of Vietnamese villages, roads, and railroads."

When Vietnam exhausts Chinese patience, the next war will begin
That's what the Indians also thought in 1961. Then the Sino-Indian war flared in 1962.

Forward policy
At the beginning of 1961, Nehru appointed General B.M. Kaul army chief.[12] Kaul reorganized the general staff and removed the officers who had resisted the idea of patrolling in disputed areas, although Nehru still refused to increase military spending or otherwise prepare for war.[12] In the summer of 1961, China began patrolling along the McMahon Line. They entered parts of Indian administered regions and much angered the Indians in doing so. The Chinese, however, did not believe they were intruding upon Indian territory. In response the Indians launched a policy of creating outposts behind the Chinese troops so as to cut off their supplies and force their return to China. According to the Home Minister in Delhi on February 4, 1962:
"If the Chinese will not vacate the areas occupied by her, India will have to repeat what she did in Goa. She will certainly drive out the Chinese forces."
This has been referred to as the "Forward Policy".[4][3][8][13][14] There were eventually 60 such outposts, including 43 north of the McMahon Line.[5]
Kaul was confident through previous diplomacy that the Chinese would not react with force.[4] According to the Indian Official History, Indian posts and Chinese posts were separated by a narrow stretch of land. China had been steadily spreading into those lands and India reacted with the Forward Policy to demonstrate that those lands were not unoccupied. India, of course, did not believe she was intruding on Chinese territory. British author Neville Maxwell traces this confidence to Mullik, who was in regular contact with the CIA station chief in New Delhi.[12] Mullik may therefore have been aware of Mao's sensitivity concerning U-2 flights.
The initial reaction of the Chinese forces was to withdraw when Indian outposts advanced towards them. However, this appeared to encourage the Indian forces to accelerate their Forward Policy even further. In response, the Central Military Commission adopted a policy of "armed coexistence". In response to Indian outposts encircling Chinese positions, Chinese forces would build more outposts to counter-encircle these Indian positions. This pattern of encirclement and counter-encirclement resulted in an interlocking, chessboard-like deployment of Chinese and Indian forces. Despite the leapfrogging encirclements by both sides, no hostile fire occurred from either side as troops from both sides were under orders to fire only in defense. On the situation, Mao Zedong commented,
Nehru wants to move forward and we won't let him. Originally, we tried to guard against this, but now it seems we cannot prevent it. If he wants to advance, we might as well adopt armed coexistence. You wave a gun, and I'll wave a gun. We'll stand face to face and can each practice our courage..
