The discussion is much more civilised compared with those in chinese language.
The current power in china actually is not very consistent in maintaining its territories. If history based on Qing empire, the territorial claims would be very different.
It is all political.
For this area strangely even I studied politics even aware of it. Unlike a little island japan and china claiming sovereignty and Taiwan, it is really not much mentioned until lately.
Hence, it is more about another empire raising up, not about claims.
As regards the style of this empire, good luck you have a place where only its IT firm can do business and others including Apple has to hand over their databases.
IT people should concern, even if it is political. Too much at stack. If the chinese norm becomes the internet standard (as its communist chief tried in internet conference), you will be all affected.
