    Run what China has said through an opposite filter, and you arrive at the truth: extremely responsible.

      And stop claiming the South China Sea as their own. Didn’t international courts rule it belonged to Philippines?

        International court rulings aside, you just need to look at a map and see how close to their country the Philippine boats are when they are harassed by the Chinese coast guard, with the latter blasting them with water cannons, boarding boats and breaking mechanicals, and puncturing holes into inflatable vessels.
