Beijing: China's newest city is a tiny remote island in the South China Sea, barely large enough to host a single airstrip. There is a post office, bank, supermarket and a hospital, but little else.Fresh water comes by freighter on a 13-hour journey from China's southernmost province. Welcome to Sansha, China's expanding toehold in the world's most disputed waters, portions of which are also claimed by Vietnam, the Philippines and other neighbours.
On Tuesday a new mayor declared Sansha, with a population of just 1,000, China's new municipality. Beijing has created the city administration to oversee not only the rugged outpost but hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of water, to strengthen its control over disputed - and potentially oil-rich - islands. A spokesman for the Philippines foreign ministry said Manila did not recognize the city or its jurisdiction. Vietnam said China's actions violated international law.
