South China Sea region where China has created artificial islands violating international law is once again in the spotlight ahead of the next edition of the Shangrila Dialogue one of region’s key geopolitical dialogue in Singapore between May 31-June 2.

The Chinese foreign ministry shot back last Thursday at a US Senate proposal to punish Chinese individuals and entities for “illegal and dangerous” activities in the South China Sea. Both the American and Chinese Defence Ministers will be present at the Shangrila Dialogue (SLD) this year giving a high-profile nature to the event.
