ALso read, HAINAN + GULF/SEA OF VIETNAM II = ANTI-CHIN SEA DENIAL as China's PLAN, PLAAF cannot effec pass through widout USFJ Bases on one side, + Russ new Kurils SSSHH-NOT-ONLY-ANTI/AGZ-JAPAN? MilBases on the other + US SOSUS, etc. just offshore.

Ditto for Beijing + CPLA in SOUTH CHINA SEA.

* TOPIX > WIKILEAKS: KIM DIDN'T TRUST CHINA in 2009.
