TLDR: Japan's increasing its defence system near Taiwan

A little bit of old news, but #Japan has vowed to protect #Taiwan, because its security has a direct impact on the security of Japan!

These missiles are largely surface to ship and ground to air, and will be active during the initial response phase in the incident of a major armed attack.

An electronic warfare unit is also planned to be deployed on Yonagunijima Island, another island in close proximity to Taiwan and China, by the end of 2023, creating a band of new bases in the Pacific Ocean, together with new bases on Mageshima island.

Recently (1/Sep), Taiwan has admitted that China can 'paralyse' its defences, though the report said China still lacked the capability to launch a full assault.
Hopefully this would help deter China!

Vietnam strengthened their relationship with US earlier and now upgraded theirs with Japan — guess China really boosted a lot of military pacts.

Short intro to the South China Sea issue - when the bully keep infringing other’s territory.
—
FYI these aren't the entire story, but the key takeaway is: a lot of countries is involved, and any conflict is bound to be huge.

Despite being deterred, China still claims an area known as the "nine-dash line" (approx 90% of the South China Sea) and backed its claim with island-building, patrols, and expansion of military presence.

And then... #CCP's foreign ministry predictably got mad and said #Japan made the "wrong remarks" (<- Real quote. Honestly we can't believe what we're hearing from these party officials sometimes...)

When family is a big big part of a lot of Asian culture, #ccp loves to use it as a tool to threaten dissidents, or even just normal people they wanna control. Sad that it seems to be really hard go combat unless the whole government collapse and dissolve …
