Japan wants India to speak its mind on South China Sea

日本希望印度就南海说出自己的看法

ISHIGAKI/ NEW DELHI： Japanese authorities were stunned to notice in August this year more than 200 Chinese fishing boats operating in the contiguous zone around East China Sea’s Senkaku islands， which Beijing insists on calling Diaoyu islands. Around the same time， 15 Chinese Maritime Law Enforcement Force (MLEF) vessels entered Japanese territorial waters+ around the Senkakus.

日本当局吃惊地发现，今年8月，200多艘中国渔船在存争议的东海尖阁岛作业，而北京坚称该岛为钓鱼岛。

大约同一时候，15艘中国海上执法船进入尖阁岛周边的“日本领海”

Fifteen is a remarkable number because， according to Japanese authorities， China deploys not more than 4-5 MLEF vessels near Scarborough Shoal， which it is seeking to forcibly occupy from the Philippines， in South China Sea.

15艘是一个相当可观的数字，据日本当局了解，中国在黄岩岛附近部署的海上执法船只有4-5艘。

Japanese fishermen have already stopped visiting the Senkakus. “Our people can’t go to Senkakus as they fear a collision with Chinese fishing boats，” said Yoshitaka Nakayama， the mayor of Ishigaki in Japan’s Okinawa prefecture. The Ishigaki island is located 170 km south of the uninhabited Senkaku islands.

日本渔民已经不再前往“尖阁岛”作业。“我们的人们不去尖阁岛，他们害怕与中国渔船发生冲突。”

Japan refused to help in building highways in Arunachal for fear of Chinese backlash. If it wants India to make a firm statement it needs to put its money where its mouth is. Fund the Arunachal border roads project and execute it. And India shall remain a close ally forever.

日本害怕中国反弹而拒绝帮助“阿邦”修路

如果真的希望印度发表坚决的声明，那就拿出点诚意来

为阿邦边境公路项目提供资金，然后帮助项目的实施

然后，印度就会是你们永远的亲密盟友

why should we be begging for money from japan is it not our responsibility to protect our own land instead of asking them

为什么要向日本乞讨

难道保护自己的领土不是我们的责任，干嘛求别人？

You seem to be naive about international politics. When a third country funds a project in a disputed region， it becomes a party to the dispute and cannot give away its ally in international forums. This is exactly the tactic employed by countries (Pakistan has perfected this in PoK).

你太幼稚了，似乎不大了解国际政治

当第三国为存争议地区的项目融资，那么这个国家就成为了争议一方，在国际舞台上就不会放弃自己的盟友。

这个策略，巴基斯坦就运用得很娴熟，比如巴控克什米尔
