John Fitzpatrick. About New China, the Koreas, Myanmar, Thailand, and also about Japanese and Chinese writers and poets. The main emphasis is on North Asia and the political tectonics of this very important, powerful, and many-peopled area.

I note the Philippine Government is, from October, having no more military 'games' or 'drills' with the USA in the South China Sea so as not to provoke their neighbour China. They wish to have bi-lateral negotiations with China rather than cause damage to their long relationship with China. The Americans are very unhappy about this...as the whole point of forcing the Phillipines to take the case of the islands to the international sea court was to provoke China...even though it was a court that neither the USA or China recognise as having any right to make judgements about anything. Well done Philippines Government!
