China is planning to
build a man-made like beach resort in the contested Spratly Island within the
Philippines maritime zone. The island is similar to or a copy paste of the Boracay Islands beach in the Philippines.
A private MalacaƱang report detailed the land repossession
activities of China in five areas, namely Johnson South (Mabini) Reef,
Cuarteron (Calderon) Reef, Hughes (Kennan) Reef, Gaven (Burgos) Reef and Eldad
(Malvar) Reef but seemingly, China was busy on its reclamation work in the four
areas excluding Johnson South (Mabini) Reef.

China has built a tough garrison at Fiery Cross Reef, and
assigned 200 troops whom they provided with surface search radars as well as
satellite data transmission facilities. The Fiery Cross garrison also has
helicopter landing pads and a wharf. The garrison is considered as China’s main
headquarters within the Philippines’ Kalayaan Island Group.The Chinese garrison
in Subi Reef also has around 200 troops positioned as well as helicopter
landing pads.
China was labeled as the duplicator of every branded
products worldwide and well known producer of
fake products out of the original one. So it is not a surprise if they want to duplicate or make many Boracay beaches as
many as they can on every area of the Spratly Island.
Chinese military official revealed that they are doing this
to ease overcrowding of their local beaches. He said, that since South China sea is their
territory, it is their option to turn it into a tropical beach paradise and a
great diving destination. They believe their beach would be much cheaper
compared to Boracay in the Philippines that is more expensive. The beach will
also serve a shield on any attack that will cause by some Asean countries who wishes to grab and make
decisive moves on their territory.
Meanwhile the Philippine government is
continuously monitoring the situation on Kalayaan island or Spratly.
