Chinese activities near Senkakus escalating, Iwaya says

Gooooooooo Japannnnn

The longer it takes Japan to build and man installations on the Senkaku islands, the more it risks losing them to China.

Put radar and missiles on them and watch the Chinese ships keep their distance. Build a tourist outpost for special fishing trips around the Senkaku's. Take control of your ownership and put it beyond doubt. Or lose it to a more hostile China.

Chinese ships' intrusion taking place around the same time as the bilateral foreign ministerial talks was "extremely inappropriate."

As usual that's what China does because when it comes to what China wants rules and agreements don't apply.

Nixon stole that island in 1972 during the transfer of Okinawa back to Japan, it was wrong and has to be return to China !

In your Chinese dreams. Chinese (PRC) maps in the 1960s showed them to be Japanese territotory, part of Okinawa Prefecture. It was never Chinese. Ever.

Tiauyutai belongs to Ilan county, ROC-TW.

Taiwan government maps place Diaoyutai in 宜蘭縣頭城鎮 Toucheng Township, Yilan County, which is postal code 261. However the Taiwan Postal Administration gives it its own postal code of 290.

as I have suggested before, Japan should irrigate the Senkaku Islands with water from the Fukushima nuclear site and start a new industry involving timber. China has complained about the water from the Fukushima plant contaminating fisheries across the Pacific. Japan should cooperate with China and dispose of this water on the Senkaku Islands.

It's truly regrettable that China considers the Senkakus/Diaoyudaos are an integral part of Chinese territory.

I wonder since when this claim has been established legally internationally.
