"Peace will be a luxury if tensions continue to rise," it added. The menacing tone appeared to echo comments from China's ViceForeign Minister Fu Ying following a meeting Monday with Alex Chua,Charge D'affaires of the Philippine Embassy in Beijing. Fu said China was not optimistic about the situation concerningHuangyan Island, and that China is fully prepared to respond toanything the Philippine side does to escalate the situation,according to a statement in Xinhua. Fu added that Chinese vessels would continue to be on alert aroundHuangyan because of the continuous provocation by the Philippineside, and that Chinese fishermen would be provided with "a positiveenvironment to operate in their traditional fishing area." Meanwhile, Chinese officials on Thursday accused Manila of incitingits people to go on to the streets for demonstrations againstChina. Planned protests prompted Beijing to advise its citizens there toremain in doors, while Chinese travel agencies suspendedPhilippines tours, state media reported.
"The Philippines has been repeatedly making strong-worded remarksover the Huangyan Island," said Ministry of Foreign Affairsspokesman Hong Lei. "China hopes the Philippines will not take any actions to magnifythe dispute in a way that may affect the relationship between thetwo countries. "China remains unchanged in insisting on diplomatic dialogue tosolve the Huangyan Island dispute. We urge the Philippine side tomake a positive response, and move back on the right track." Beijing and Manila are adamant their territorial arguments arejustified.
"They both have claims. China goes back centuries but thePhilippines also says it has maps from the 18th century showing itbelongs them," said Stephanie Kleine-Ahlbrandt from theInternational Crisis Group. The Philippines government, which says the islands are well insideits 200-nautical mile exclusion zone, wants to resolve the disputethrough international negotiation, Kleine-Ahlbrandt told CNN. But she said China rejects this as it has a long-standing distrustof western-dominated mediators.
"There are a dozen ships in a standoff there right now. Both sidesare really using this for all it is worth, whipping upnationalistic sentiment -- what is needed is something tode-escalate the situation," she added.
