ASEAN Needs Own Laws to Curb China in South China Sea, Say Experts
ASEAN countries must come up with their own legislation to balance the “maritime power” if it is concerned about China’s hold on the South China Sea, said a think tank. Dr Collin Koh of RSIS said proper legislation will allow ASEAN countries to have their own coast guard law in direct response to China’s coast guard law. “This would allow them to respond in any maritime contingencies reacting to China,” he said in a webinar titled “Defence and Security Forum on the Sulu and South China Seas”.
