争来争去的南海油气之争

"Oil and Gas Fight"in South Sea

"南海问题"本不该成为"问题",因为南海自古以来就是中国的领土。但近些年来,菲律宾、越南、马来西亚、文莱、印度尼西亚等国纷纷对中国的南海宣布主权,并实际占领南海部分岛屿、进行海上油气开采。今年以来,美国、日本、印度等国家也插足南海。其实,南海上空之所以阴云密布,根源在于南海水下丰富的油气资源。

'The South Sea issue' shouldn't have become 'problem', because the South Sea is a part of China's territory since ancient times. But in recent years, the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia and other countries announced sovereignty to the South Sea of China, and actual occupied parts of South Sea island and exploiting oil and gas there. Since this year, the United States, Japan, India and other countries also put their feet in the South Sea. On November 19, 2011, in the sixth east Asia meeting, Chinese premier Wen jiabao clarified the Chinese position that Chinese basic position and opinion on the South Sea are clear and consistent, dispute about the South Sea shall be solved peacefully by the directly sovereignty states through friendly consultations and negotiations. ASEAN should cooperate practically and try hard for a final 'Nanhai conduct codes'. The South Sea belong to China, China needs to speed up the pace of development of the South Sea oil and gas resources. Only development of reef, can really keep reef. The South Sea far away from Chinese Mainland, simply guarding cost is high. The South Sea through economic benefits of resources development supports safe defense there, through the safe defense ensures economy sustained development at the same time, and realizes the South Sea permanent rights.
