The Philippines has become the latest of China’s neighbors to object to its new national map, joining Malaysia and India in releasing strongly worded statements accusing Beijing of claiming their territory.
China published a new version of its national map on Monday, as it has regularly done since at least 2006, to correct what Beijing has in the past referred to as “problematic maps” that it claims misrepresent its territorial borders.
The Philippines said Thursday it “rejected” the map because of its inclusion of a dashed line around contested areas of the South China Sea that was subject to an international tribunal ruling in 2016 that found in favor of Manila.

Why does the article not show the goddamn map?
This article shows China’s new map and breaks down the disputed claims: https://www.dw.com/en/china-provokes-india-with-a-new-official-map/a-52620520
For India, it’s Arunachal Pradesh and the Aksai-Chin plateau. For Southeast Asian countries, it’s the “nine-dash line.”
I just get a blank page.
Thank you. Fuck CNN.
[Joke] Right, that’s the map. It’s a standard political map, just there aren’t any lines because it’s all China.
The 9 dash line has the same energy as trump trying to sharpy a different path for a hurricane. Sad, desperate energy.
