Yeah, it is true that there have been many conflicts in the history everywhere. However, in the modern period, all political borders are drawn and recognized by respecting the current international laws. If not, wars would keep on going forever.

China thinks that it is powerful enough that it can ignore all the laws or re-define them. What they want to say is "I dare any country to cross my paths".

The problem with China is rooted with its expansionism which has brainwashed the majority of its own people. If one cares to trace the history of China back to 2500 yrs ago until the modern days, you can see how China border keeps expanding by eating up its smaller neighboring countries and assimilating them. In this expansionism policy, anywhere a Chinese person touches anytime in the history, in China government's view, that is where China border is. To go along to brainwash its people with this policy, its current and past governments have oppressed their own people and used all of the internal resources, ignoring how unhappy and depressed their citizens are, to support this policy.

Yeah, China, you are powerful now but no countries look at you with respects. I think China only stops when it finishes conquering the entire world.

The building to convert reef to island is one of the first steps to claim the entire Southeast-Asia sea by China. It will then have the self-declared ownership right to block all sea/air traffics through this region and bully other neighboring countries. Besides having a huge oil/gas reserve and fishes, in term of economic impact, this sea is as important as or more than Panama Canal or Suez Canal. A country with the right to block or own it will harm the rest of the world. Currently, the allies have been formed with a group of countries Japan, Philippine, Viet Nam, America and others trying to stop China but they have not found any solution nor success yet.

Here is the map that China wants to claim: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_disputes_in_the_So...
