Then why would the Chinese state media claim the flotilla reached James Shoal. Also what's being said by that admiral don't add up. 1) Didn't the carrier finish it's operations in the area a while ago? 2) Also : ''monitoring the situation with heightened surveillance'' . How does the Malaysian Navy manage to detect ad track the flotilla if it's over 1000nm from Malaysia shores? Edited by Uruzu, Jan 29 2014, 05:40 PM.

The rebuttal corroborates the previous one from Jane's. The exercises involving the ships named happened in the Paracels five days before the alleged intrusion. Edited by raider1011, Jan 29 2014, 06:05 PM.

Malaysians are playing it safe eh? Like it would work. Good luck to them if they kept it up playing safe. China would just be laughing and it will just encourage the Chinese to expand there playing field more with Malaysia's expense. |

Its just a face-saving measure by Malaysia government after all the kowtowing to China in the past year. The PLAN task force apparently conducted exercises from the Paracels to Spratlys and to James Shoal. |

![]() A view from Type 071 amphibious assault ship Changbaishan (989) of destroyers Wuhan (169) and Haikou (171) during what Chinese media said was a ceremony at James Shoal in the South China Sea to mark China's sovereignty of the territory. Malaysian officials deny the ships had been in the area. Source: Wang Ting/Xinhua Jane's posts the article in full:
It boils down to the credibility of the Chinese media, the only source for the claim. Edited by raider1011, Jan 30 2014, 10:04 AM.

Which to say if full of crap. I'd believe the Malaysian government on this one unless proven otherwise. |

Malaysia to lodge protest over Chinese Coast Guard 'intruders': WSJ Reuters 5 hours ago KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - Malaysia will protest against what it called the intrusion of a Chinese Coast Guard ship into its waters north of Borneo, the Wall Street Journal reported, in another departure from the country's previously soft approach to South China Sea disputes. National Security Minister Shahidan Kassim was quoted as telling the Journal that Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak would raise the issue directly with Chinese President Xi Jinping. The report comes after Shahidan posted pictures on Facebook of what he said was a Chinese Coast Guard ship anchored at Luconia Shoals, an area of islets and reefs about 150 km (93 miles) north of Malaysian Borneo. The shoals are inside the 200 nautical mile exclusive economic zone claimed by Malaysia and about 2,000 km from mainland China, he said, adding that any foreign vessels entering the area were "intruders". |
