This analysis is particularly topical given the on going Sino-Japanese dispute over a potentially resource rich area of the East China Sea and the long running disagreement with littoral South China Sea states over the Spratly islands. Such comments clearly demonstrate the growing US perception that China's military and economic power is allowing greater power projection and influence beyond its immediate border areas.
