About this listen

 Radio Free Asia's Mat Pennington and Drake Long discuss China's efforts to upgrade tiny islets it holds in the disputed Paracel island chain in the South China Sea, and its drafting of a law that would authorize Chinese coast guard ships to use weapons against foreign vessels. They also look at what may lie behind the Philippines' recent lifting of a moratorium on oil exploration in its waters.
