aircraft carrier and deeper defense cooperation from the United States as
strains show with China over the disputed South China Sea. Within Southeast
Asia, Vietnam has become an increasingly lonely voice in challenging Chinese
claims to the vast majority of the waterway and was forced to suspend some

A newspaper in Vietnam has been banned for three months for publishing
controversial articles on China.
The Ministry of Information and Communication decided to suspend the Du lich
(Tourism) bi-weekly for "serious violations of Vietnamese Press Law".
In a rare display of patriotism, Du lich ran a number of articles on the
subject of territorial disputes between Vietnam and China.
The offending articles were in the paper's Lunar New Year issue. |
