What to do from now

Hello. Thank you for seeing the page. It is T.S. I wrote a page about Japan-China relationship.

National Feeling Senkaku Islands Dispute
Spratly Islands Dispute Japan-Taiwan relations

I wrote it divided into the four topics above, but did you understand?

From here I will express my own opinion.
Of course, this is neither a correct answer nor a wrong answer.
What is important is how you felt when reading the page!

  1. Senkaku Islands Dispute

    For myself, I think that for the Senkaku Islands, we should strengthen crackdown on Chinese fishing vessels and claim their ownership to the world.

    The reason is that one of the purposes of China sailing fishing vessels and the like off the Senkaku Islands is to "aim the public's dissatisfaction to foreign countries". If the Maritime Safety Agency warns that the ship of China is sailing off the Senkaku Islands every time, when it comes to protesting between the governments of Japan and China, naturally the citizens of China also own the territorial right of the Senkaku Islands I will insist on. If we assume that this trend was intended by the Chinese government, Japan will be swayed by China.

    I think that if we claim dominion of the Senkaku Islands to the world more, it will be impossible for China to easily operate a fishing boat or the like near the Senkaku Islands.

  2. Spratly Islands Dispute

    Regarding the Spratly Islands landfill problem, I think it is important not to let artificial islands existing now exist.

    Once I made artificial islands I cannot do anything anymore, so I think that breaking is nearly impossible. However, as it is left as it is, since it is set up to the runway, it may be used for military purposes. In order to prevent it, I think that pressure should be exercised not to allow the use of artificial islands in the countries concerned.

  3. Japan-China relations

    I think that the relationship between Japan and China is not so bad so far so I think we should keep on maintaining our relationship right now.

    If the relationship gets worse, the damage to Japanese companies in China will be considerable, I think that it will take time for economic and diplomatic recovery.
