@Cletus:

Google/Yahoo Search cannot provide me this information. Hence, the burden of proof is yours (by showing us a link) because you made the claim that Vietnamese forces allegedly fired on Philippine planes. If such proof exists and is promptly presented, then this may also show that China is not the only aggressor you say you wanted to point out.

Allow me to rephrase my previous post:

Unless you have proof of strained Philippine & Vietnamese ties (such as firearm firings etc) please do not use the Vietnam/Philippines relationship to justify China's relationship with Japan or Vietnam.

Cletus:

Vietnamese have fired on Philippines planes in Spratlys, and there are other examples.

Really? I haven't heard any incident between Philippines & Vietnam yet. Some Vietnamese poachers have been caught/arrested in Philippine waters, yes.

You will need to show us the link for this firing "incident" between Vietnam and the Philippines.

No strained relations between Vietnam & the Philippines. That is, not yet as strained as say occupation of China of Scarborough Shoal and Half Moon Shoal (and with a PLA Navy Frigate running aground at that), and Filipino fishermen being fired at by Chinese vessel (links can be provided).

Don't use the Vietnam/Philippines relationship to justify China's relationship with Japan or Vietnam.
