China To Build 2 More Aircraft Carriers: Taiwan

TAIPEI — Taiwan’s intelligence chief said May 21 that China plans to build two aircraft carriers, in addition to the first in its fleet, a refitted former Soviet carrier currently undergoing sea trials.

“Indeed the Chinese communists have decided to build two aircraft carriers on their own,” Tsai Teh-sheng, head of the island’s National Security Bureau, told parliament.

Tsai said construction of the warships is slated to start in 2013 and 2015, respectively, with delivery dates of 2020 and 2022, and that they would be conventionally powered.

Tsai said that since mid-2011, China had conducted six sea trials of its first carrier, and that Taiwan expected it to go into service before the end of this year.

“Initially it may simply serve for training purposes but it can be transferred for battles when necessary in the future,” he said.

The Chinese ship’s sea trials have sparked international concern about China’s widening naval reach amid growing regional tensions over maritime disputes and a U.S. campaign to assert itself as a Pacific power.

Tsai’s comments came in response to queries from Lin Yu-fang, a lawmaker from the ruling Kuomintang party who said the development could force Taiwan’s entire defense strategy to be overhauled.

“Once the two warships join the Chinese navy, their threat to Taiwan will be way larger than that of the ‘Varyag,’” he said, referring to the reconditioned 1980s Soviet-era carrier.

In response to China’s naval buildup, Taiwan is arming more of its warships with its new “carrier killer” anti-ship missiles and building a fleet of 12 corvettes designed with “stealth” technologies.

The Hsiung Feng (Brave Wind) missiles are reportedly designed to cruise at a speed of Mach 2.0, or twice the speed of sound, with a range of up to 130 kilometers (80 miles).

In an inauguration speech May 20 after winning re-election in January polls, Taiwan’s President Ma Ying-jeou said his administration would maintain an “effective deterrent” while pursuing detente with China in the years ahead.

China to PHL: Cease all provocations, show sincerity

China on Thursday ignored the Philippines' call for it to withdraw from the Panatag (Scarborough) Shoal and instead urged Filipino officials to show "sincerity" in resolving the month-old row diplomatically.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei claimed the Philippines' "provocative actions" in the area prompted China to beef up its presence there.

"We again urge the Philippines to seriously respect China's territory sovereignty, cease all their provocations, and show its sincerity of making serious diplomatic dialogues with China," Hong said in a news article posted Thursday night on the Chinese government's web portal.

The Philippines earlier reported an increase in the number of Chinese ships in the disputed area, and demanded that Chinese vessels withdraw from the area.

The standoff started last April when Philippine authorities spotted Chinese fishermen taking marine species in the area but were blocked by Chinese vessels when they tried to move in and make arrests.

Both sides declared their respective fishing bans in the area earlier this month.

However, Hong reiterated that Huangyan Island - the name it uses to refer to the shoal - is an inherent part of Chinese territory.

Also, he insisted a Philippine warship's "harassment" of Chinese fishermen had singularly caused the incident.

He said China lodged several representations to the Philippine side, urging it to withdraw its ships from the waters in the area.

"China has been trying to resolve the current standoff through diplomatic consultations," he stressed.

But Hong claimed the Philippines has kept taking "provocative actions" in the South China Sea, which it said forced China "to beef up vigilance" in the area.

He said the Philippines' behavior aroused China's suspicion over its sincerity of properly resolving the incident. — ELR, GMA News

Blame that to the magnificent 12 that booted the Americans out of Subic. Ipalabas sina Enrile, Estrada and friends at ilagay sa frontlines kapag nagka-gyerahan na.

Di na mag-ing-ana ang mga chekwa kung naa'y US Base diri karon.
