Code of conduct key to South China Sea

China was justified in expressing its serious concern and indignation on Tuesday over the Chairman's Statement at the 26th ASEAN Summit which said, "we share the serious concerns expressed by some leaders on the land reclamation being undertaken in the South China Sea".

China's construction and maintenance works on some islands and reefs in the Nansha Islands fall within its sovereignty. The works are to improve the working and living conditions of its personnel stationed on those islands.

There is no problem with overflights or freedom of navigation in the South China Sea.

Countries, particularly, the Philippines are obviously behind ASEAN's finger-pointing at China. Since tensions over the maritime disputes flared up, it has been a routine trick in recent years for Manila to try to take ASEAN hostage and impose its own hidden agenda on the 10-member bloc.

ASEAN, as the most influential multilateral platform in the region, should stick to a neutral and impartial stance in the maritime territorial disputes. After all, the disputes only exist between a few ASEAN members and China, as such, they should be resolved bilaterally by the parties concerned. The regional bloc should bear in mind that it has a consensus with China on this principle .

Since the 1970s, the Philippines has illegally seized some islands and islets from China in the South China Sea. In recent years, it has harassed Chinese fishermen in waters off Huangyan Island while stirring up anti-China sentiments at home.

ASEAN should be told that the price of allowing an obvious troublemaker in the South China Sea to take it hostage could be costly, as any attempt to breach the bilateral formula would not only complicate the situation but also increase the risk of interference by outside forces.

The ASEAN statement also reaffirmed "the importance of maintaining peace, stability, security and freedom of navigation in and overflights over the South China Sea." It urged intensified consultations to ensure the expeditious establishment of an effective code of conduct for the South China Sea.

This is the right approach to handling the tensions in these waters. The bloc should oppose any words and deeds that are intended to break the boundaries of these principles.

China and ASEAN have held rounds of negotiations on a code of conduct since 2013. The only sensible choice for all parties concerned is to create the necessary conditions and atmosphere for reaching a code of conduct at an early date.
