Aware of its immense material and military power coupled with its increasing population, the Chinese government find it convenient to acquire territories it wants in Asia bordering on violations of international statutes and treaties. What are your suggestions to end China's imperialist motives without drifting into war and chaos?

Seriously there is no easy task for any free nation trying to stop China's imperialist adventurism into the territory of its neighbors in Asia, it is just a matter of time after the rise to dominant economic and military power, China will use its power to acquire more land and territory through force for its own expansion and the spread of communism. It is the nature of communist imperialistic work in progress ever since the beginning of mankind. International statutes and treaties alone are no impedance to the communist insatiable appetite for territory and reach the stage of being a world superpower. W.W III may well turn out to be the only answer to stop this monster from its own adventurism further into far east and the west.

Hello Lampar, I don't know what's the point of China trying to prove their power, i mean even in the video game they are recognize as a Superpower nation. but they are choosing the wrong path here, they are obviously, repeating what Japan, even Germany has done way back half a century ago. I hope we don't reach this kind of situation, we shouldn't go for world war iii or it's the failure of UN

You don't know what's the point of China trying to prove their power?? Isn't it very obvious that China is hoping to acquire its neighbor's territory through the use of force by sending its large naval fleets to the disputed area. It hopes the smaller neighbors surrounding South China Sea can be cowed into submission by displaying its vast military forces in the region. The communist is not feeling very satisfy with its present fixed territorial land in the far east, it is having the urge to conquer more land for its ever rising economic power and rising population and to accomodate it rising demand for more foreign military outposts for its own expansion in that region.

China is being aggressive, no doubt. They are supporting a terrorist nation like Pakistan and are bullying south east small island countries too.
But what about other super power. America started Taliban in Afghanistan to limit Russia. They attacked Iraq without reason and destabilized it. So my point is every superpower nation succumbs to its ambition, hunger to achieve and outclass other. One does it in aggressive manner while the other in a diplomatic manner. Effects are the same. Anarchy in the region.

Hello Socballais, This all started regarding their sending of fishing ships on the western philippine sea, when he stop it, that's how the escalation started.now it has escalated to vietnam, then Japan as well. maybe they should just built a base on the moon and then get some helium there instead of pushing us so that they can get more oil than we do

If China don't change his ways, then it's inevitable that there could be a WW3. And if that happens, I hope that the neighboring countries of China will gang up on him until he falls to his knees. It will be the downfall of China to be bullying his neighbors. And every patriotic Filipino should stop buying China made products and we should buy our own. After all Philippine made products is more of quality than made in China.

I guess i better not talk about it, because if we go on to this, and it becomes a news to other people, they might think that it will become war towards China and other country. For me that's the reason.
