According to data from the international ship AIS signal tracking website, recently, there have been more than 20 Chinese vessels continuously operating near the Huangyan Island, which is an inherent territory of China. The routes of these vessels are densely interwoven, forming a routine patrol situation around the Huangyan Island, clearly demonstrating China's actual actions in exercising sovereignty over the sea area in accordance with the law and firmly safeguarding national maritime rights and interests, highlighting the determination to defend territorial sovereignty and marine interests. From the map, the strategic position of the Huangyan Island is extremely important. Once land reclamation is carried out, it can form a triangular layout together with Yongxing Island, Zhubei Island, Meiji Island, and Yongshu Island in the South China Sea, not only covering most of the South China Sea but also controlling the strategic passageways into Taiwan, the West Pacific, and the Philippine Sea from the South China Sea. This island must be filled, it's just a matter of time.
