China must be told to stop its military 'takeover' of the South China Sea by halting developing island that are not theirs.
Beijing fails to respect the sovereignty rights of other nations in the South China Sea area by massing up its military presence and erecting buildings such as army base and airports.
And Malaysian territory is of no exception in their uncivilized and undiplomatic infiltration.

Putrajaya must not just sit tight on reports that more and more Chinese military boats encroached our waters of late, imposing a security threat to our shippers and fishermen.
Wisma Putra must send a strong protest note to Beijing and remind them that their conduct is akin to declaring war against such nations affected by the intrusion.
The issue too must be raised at the UN Security Council.
I believe our government is aware of the increasingly illegal infiltration of the Chinese in our territory but 'nothing much could be done about it'.
Malaysian waters may have been more extensively infiltrated by China than Kuala Lumpur has acknowledged, new surveillance findings showed.
A new satellite image posted on Friday (June 19) by current affairs website The Diplomat showed that a 4,000-tonne, 3401-class Chinese Coast Guard ship had been operating close to Luconia shoals 150km north of Malaysian Borneo.
This is the same type of vessel China has used to wrestle control of Scarborough shoal from the Philippines in 2012, and to enforce a blockade around a Philippine-held position in Second Thomas shoal.
In the photo taken on Feb 13 this year, the Chinese ship could be seen sitting 3.5km from an elevated coral sediment feature called the Luconia breakers, well inside Malaysia’s 400-km exclusive economic zone. Anchored nearby was a Malaysian Navy Kedah-class patrol vessel.
