#1 IMO this another worrisome sign among many lately that CHINA is getting ready to drop most of its historical preference/policy ala "Soft Power/Diplomacy", + instead BEGIN USING THE POWER OF THE PLA TO MILITARILY ENFORCE + PROTECT ITS TERRITORIAL CLAIMS VEE THE "FIRST ISLAND CHAIN".
IMO "MARSHAL" = here means more "Marshal" of the North Korean military forces of the Chinese PLA, N-O-T "Marshal" of the [sovereign] North Korean People's Army, by and for the same.
* TOPIX > [Asia Times] JAPAN TESTS CHINA'S EAST FLANK.
* SAME, WORLD NEWS > PHILIPPINES WARY OF CHINESE FISHING BOATS NEAR SPRATLYS. New fishing fleet includes PRC Admin = "Reinforcement" Ship + new armed Fisheries Patrol Ship.

RELATED SAME = TOKYO [Metro Govt] WILL FIGHT FOR SENKAKUS; + TOKYO [Metro Govt] SEEKS PERMISSION [from Central-National Govt] TO LAND ON SENKAKUS.
* SAME > JAPAN WANTS CHINA INFORMED OF SENKAKUS PLAN ACCURATELY, i.e. that the proposed nationalization of the disputed Senkakus [Chinia = Daoyus] under Nippon = Japan State Ownership is a DOMESTIC/SOVEREIGN JAPANESE MATTER, N-O-T a Diplomatic or Bilateral, etc. matter between it + China or Other.
