| Spratly Islands - I would like to be the first person to post a post in the Spratly Islands forum! Questions: Where on earth ARE the Spratly Islands? What happens there? Who is the Spratly Island coordinator? | |

| - *lol* Neil, >> Where on earth ARE the Spratly Islands? Well, at least the CIA knows where they are: http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/pg.html "Southeastern Asia, group of reefs and islands in the South China Sea, about two-thirds of the way from southern Vietnam to the southern Philippines ." >> What happens there? Seems as if they spend most of their time being claimed by various countries ;-) "They are claimed in their entirety by China, Taiwan, and Vietnam, while portions are claimed by Malaysia and the Philippines. About 45 islands are occupied by relatively small numbers of military forces from China, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan, and Vietnam. Brunei has established a fishing zone that overlaps a southern reef, but has not made any formal claim." >> Who is the Spratly Island coordinator? There doesn't seem to be much to coordinate :-D "no indigenous inhabitants" hmmm... learning THEIR language must be rather dull ;-) | |

| - Actually I may be wrong, but aren't the Spratly Islands a former Austrian colony? Any more posts and this forum's going to need a coordinator! | |

| Spratly Islands! let's check about it! - ehm... so many countrie claimed the Spratly islands! what's the mineral inside there? let's see the countries whom claimed the spratly as a part of his nation! 1. China 2. Taiwan 3. Vietnam 4. Philiphine 5. Malaysia okey... see that! 1. China... ehm... i think the spartly islands is too far from southern China beach, and considered by the International law every countries gets claimed a region must be has at least "12 mile" from his nearest beach. and i think... China doesn't has it! right? so... why china gets to claimed to Spartly Islands? 2. Taiwan? ehm... like China! tooo far! 3. Vietnam... yeah The vietnam position is nearest than China and Taiwan. 4. Philiphine. but Philiphine is so close to spartly... very nearest than Vietnam. 5. Malaysia. ehm... Malaysia gets claimed from Northern Sabahan beach to 12 mile to Spartly. if you see that! i think the Philiphine must gets the spartly. cause Philiphine it's a nearest country. but much bettter if The International law. gets to do the election in Spartly.!\ Indonesian Contributor.

| - *lol* Ricky... they CAN'T do an election ;-) There are no indigenous inhabitants! The only people living there are the personnel of the garrisons of the various claimant states :-))) So the state that manages to bring the most soldiers there would win the election ;-) | |

| does spratly Island belong to china? - Spratly islands are the islands which were disputed between China and the Philippines...there are many turtles there heheheh | |

| Spratly islands geographically are near Palawan, Philippines. We call it Kalayaan Group of Islands - No offense to the Chinese, but my patriotic sentiment was actually offended when I saw that Spratly Islands, the international name for Kalayaan Group of Islands (KIG) of the Philippines, were put under the territory of China. I hope this would be corrected. And by the way, there had already been elections in KIG aka Spratlys. | |
