If there had been any doubt about China's determination to aggressively pursue its claims to huge swaths of contested territory in the resource-rich seas of the Asia-Pacific, there's no doubt now.
Beijing is barrelling ahead with new force. In the past few days it has made new deployments of ships, but its greatest success has been in the diplomatic conference halls of the region.
The deployments are deliberately provocative. Beijing angered the Philippines by sending 30 fishing vessels to contested waters in the South China Sea last week just as a major regional meeting of foreign ministers was about to discuss the dispute.
Separately last week, China angered Japan by ordering three government fisheries vessels to disputed waters in the East China Sea. Again, it acted even as its Foreign Minister was about to meet his Japanese counterpart to discuss the matter. A furious Japan recalled its ambassador for consultations in response.
