So what if China ultimately wants to build a military base there. If US can have a few hundred military bases around the world, and surrounding China with many of its bases, why can't China build a base there in that solomon? If USA thinks that they alone can do certain things, then they have to wake up and deal with the reality.

DW, what's wrong with leasing an island? Are you suggesting that the island should be taken over by gun boat and killing as when the British took over Hong Kong in the 19th Century? Yeah, and the 2 Opium Wars against China then during the Qing (Ching) Dynasty were done totally very democratic, the British Parliaments passed the resolution each time round to attack China because China refused Victorian Britain to force huge quantity of opium into China and to take away tons of silver and gold from China.

When Chinese hosts a casino in Cambodia, western media said China wants to build a military base there. Now, China wants to develop petrochemical industry on one of Solomon islands, forecast of military base again crops up. China operates a petrochemical plant on an island off Brunei for years, a military base has yet to emerge. The industry generates income for Brunei which has problems with low oil price. Likewise, the lease would inject much needed funds to Solomon Islands and more when production comes on line. Has Taiwan in all the years of diplomatic relation with Solomon Islands ever thought of starting industries to improve livelihood of people there ?

What rubbish is your "expert" talking? First, what China's unilateral claims? If China's claims are unilateral, that means no one else is claiming those islands. So why should there be any dispute? Your "expert" slants his half baked presentation against China. The UN has not decided who is entitled to the islands in the South China Sea. The so-called "world court" that decided on the Philippines case against China was no world court. It was a private arbitration panel convened unilaterally (yes, this time it's unilateral) by the Philippines, and paid for by the Philippines. It has no jurisdiction to decide on anything whatssever. Get a real expert.

In 1930s', when Taiwan was a Japanese colony, Japan took control over the 11 Dash-lines (its islands, reefs & shoals) ...China protested .... but no other nations protested because those islands, reefs & shoals didn't belong to them. When WWII was over, the Japanese government had to return Taiwan and the 11 Dash-lines (its islands, reefs & shoals) back to China. In 1950s'/60s' when PRC (Red China) was being sanctioned by US ... and the ROC (Free China) was being protected by US military forces stationed at Taiwan .. the US forces were helping ROC to manned the outposts by rendering assistance to ROC in the logistics of transporting the Chinese military men from Taiwan to those 11 Dash-lines outposts in the South China Sea. But, when ROC was expelled and being replaced by PRC (at the UN) .... the US, (in order to contain and obstruct the rise of China) started .... (i) to dispute the legitimacy of the 9 Dash-lines ... and (ii) to encourage many ASEAN countries to claim "ownership" of those islands, reefs or shoals .... and (iii) to deliberately ignore the fact that 1982 Convention was not expected to deal with islands, reefs or shoals (already being claimed by China) (iv) to protest that these 9 Dash-lines contravene the freedom of navigation. Is this the way to talk about the "rules base UN international order"?

There is no country called Taiwan. Taiwan is just an island, the country name is Republic of China. And it is funny that the ROC complaint about the same treatment that the subjected PRC before that go as far as rejecting PRC from UN. In addition, ROC still claim whole of china, tibet and even Vietnam.

Solomon needed US and China to take an interest in it.. USA wasn't paying attention to them so now it got the attention of US and Australia.

Mr Shieh is either talking nonsense or trying to steer away from 1992 consensus. The 1992 consensus was agreed in Singapore with both the ROC (Taiwan) and PRC government in an international city! At that time Roc was ruled by a freely elected government under KMT, led by Lee Teng Hui who is a native Taiwanese. So don’t be misled by DPP and current Taiwanese regime!!!!

It’s wise that Solomon Islands to sign an agreement with China in an win/ win situations. There is nothing wrong to lease an island to China with local employments to the islanders where the West had done nothing for so many years. Pacific Islanders must never forget what the Americans and the French had done to the atolls by testing their nuclear bombs there.

Some facts. The nine dash line is used to be called eleven dash line pre dating PRC (is ROC which represented China in UN). So it is a not a claim made recently. There is no UN position on this. The so called UN position was a tribunal court funded by US and Philippines and an arbitration court supposed to be valid when both parties agreed to participate. In this case China did not and therefore not legit. UN made it clear that this court is not related to UN.

That is completely false. The 9 dash line violates more than a few UN positions including that you cannot own international waters and that you are only allowed a small 25-35 mile economic zone past the coast line. They also ruled on artificial islands not adding to that economic zone. Its an absolutely insane claim that sees China owning waters hundreds and hundreds of miles off its coastline but 15 miles off another countries coastline.
