HANOI, Vietnam -- Vietnam launched a live-fire naval drill off its central coast Monday amid a nasty spat with China following two maritime incidents over disputed territory in the South China Sea.
A naval officer based in central Quang Nam province said the first part of the nine-hour exercise began in the morning on and around the uninhabited island of Hon Ong, some 25 miles (40 kilometers) off the coast. He declined to give his name because he was not authorized to speak to the press.
He said it was a routine annual training exercise involving various types of artillery and other weapons, but that no missiles would be fired. He declined to say how many troops or vessels would be involved. A second drill lasting five hours was scheduled for the evening.
"It has nothing to do with the recent incidents involving China," he said.
The drill comes after Hanoi and Beijing exchanged heated jabs over two recent scrapes involving Vietnamese-operated oil and gas exploration vessels in waters claimed by both countries. Vietnam says Chinese vessels cut cables attached to boats conducting a seismic survey off its coast, while China accuses Vietnam of illegally entering its waters and putting fishermen's lives at risk.
Both say the incidents occurred in different areas.
The neighboring communist countries have a long history of diplomatic tussles over incidents near the disputed Spratly and Paracel islands, which are claimed all or in part by Vietnam, China and several other Asian nations. The area, which straddles vital shipping lanes, is believed to be teeming with fish and rich in oil and gas reserves.
However, Hanoi has responded much more angrily to the current uproar. It accuses China of attempting to create new disputed areas in waters within 200 nautical miles of Vietnam's coast, which are guaranteed as an economic exclusion zone by international law.
China says the May 26 and June 9 incidents occurred near the Spratly islands, and has issued terse warnings for Vietnam to settle down. China's Foreign Ministry did not immediately respond to a faxed request for comment Monday.
On Sunday, hundreds of Vietnamese staged a second round of rare protests in Hanoi and southern Ho Chi Minh City, calling for China to stay out of its territory. Demonstrations are typically quashed quickly by police.
The United States, which has said the South China Sea is in its national interest, has encouraged a diplomatic exchange to keep regional tensions from flaring.

PLEASE!!!!!!!! YOU WHORENAMS THINK THAT SMALL LITTLE FIRECRACKERS IS GONNA SCARE AWAY CHINA HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
WHY DON'T THESE VIETS PROTEST AGAINST THEIR OWN GOVERNMENT FOR TAKING KHMER LANDS?
វិនាសឲ្យអស់ទៅពួគអាយួន!
These Yuon youngsters were paid 2 cents each to protest against China. They were never been taught the history of how their ancestors tortured Khmers and took Khmer land. They were only taught that the land at south belonged to them and that Khmers migrated from somewhere and lived in their land.
All the Yuon people were never been informed how many of their people were killed in the war, all they were told about a few killed during the war. The Yuon government never ONCE ever told the truth the numbers of Yuon were killed. They hided from their people so the Yuon stayed calm and keep moving on.
You cannot blame them because they are ignorant just like Khmers in Cambodia who knew nothing about Dam Tae Ong or Chey Chetha II from the real history.
Why CHAM and Khmer Krom people don't
protest and demand Yuon to get out of their lands at the same time these Yuon are protesting against China?
All commentators above are so GREAT,
Where is ah trov kroib Pianh youn whore s son ?
Ahahahahah the truth is hurt? Oh my God the damn youn Pianh start to frustrate,there the SAY GO AROUND IT COME AROUND
The Biggest Daddy of all the firepowers were the Chinese. The Europeans learned to use the Chinese firepowers for themselves. So the little Viets think that they can talk back to the Big Daddy Chinese? Lol. No no not in the open sea like this. This time there is no way to run except to sink for the Viets. The Viet bamboo stakes will not save them this time. Lol.
If the Chinese did not react to this provocation act by the Viet then the whole world will view China as nothing but a paper tiger or just a bluff.
Khmer whores and beggars fully support China solders, we need your big dicks. All Khmer dog men are small dicks and balls, hahaha
Khmer dogs only know how to bark, they have no balls to carry gun to fight, that why they got fucked all the time, even the ladyboy Thailand can fuck their family, LOL
Is Khmer love to sell their kids for foreigners to fuck??? How many dollars can you get?
Khmer leeches can't do shit on their own, the only thing ya can do is cry and bark, so fucking hilarious, Khmers like " I will lick your ass, Chairman Mao, please fight for our sake" HAHAHA, I laugh to die, LOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL, fucking dumb Khmers hahaha
Khmer is not dumb, we are honest and wanna to live peacefully, not like youn. Youn is crocodile and got no friends, youn will kill or destroy everything for their own benifits, include family and friends. We are regret that we had youn as friends.Now we know it and a bit late. However, we are standing up for our freedom. Youn are happy now but don't be too happy, soon you will be destroyed by China.
Don't said as if you know us clearly like that 2:57. Because of person like you, The Khmers have gained no respect from other people around. You people are stupid, just think about yourselves and underestimated others, relying to foreign power to stand firm. If we, Vietnamese had not been so kind and more skillfull, your nation would have been disappear from the map, becareful with your speech.
About China, we don't afraid of those fucking Chinese, we have power to fight against them. And our Vietnamese all have will to do that. What about you Khmers, dividing and spliting even between your own people
United States of America:
Contrary to the Pentagon's popular belief, the US did not lose the war to Vietcong, it simply "ran" out of time. In fact, the US still have unfinished business in Vietnam, and therefore the US does not have the obligation to fulfill it commitment to support former foe.
Certainly, it is unpropitious time for Vietnam to bring this quagmire upon itself.

My brother Chinese, is your new aircraft carrier ready for the upcoming show?
May God give you strength to destroy Vietnam (dog-eating nation)!
God Bless China!

Đại Việt, did you know that Viet writing language is so hairy, do you know where the hairy came from? They were stolen from Khmer writing system.
You Viet have nothing of your own, everything about Vietnam has been stolen from other people including the Chinese, Khmer and French.
When people ask me what is the icon of Vietnam, all I can think of is Viet girls spreading their legs.
You Viet should seriously consider a one child policy like China, to your population under control.
A one-child policy in Vietnam is a good thing to keep its population out of control. Even the rabbits breeding is not as bad as in Vietnam.
Whorenam think they win every war HAHAHAHAHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAAAHAHHAAHAA! POOR COUNTRY!
China will nuke Vietnam...into ashes!
if Vietnam wants China to respect the UN Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea, but First Vietnam stop invade Khmer land and stop oppression Khmer Krom people also, they must respect the UNDHRIP and human rights. if Vietnam not doing that why should other country respect their rights...!
Why YUE (Viets) are so violent? Because ever since they were born they're only facing war and war. Not long ago they freed themselves from Chinese, then from one war to another endlessly war. How long can they run? All 9 ASEAN nations hate the Viets, and most Western nations hate the them but if they work with the Viets only to use them for their benefits. I am a son of the YUE(Viets) and I hate to be one. I am not proud of my history as butcher and cheater backgrounds. If GOD is greatest please eliminate the YUE(Viets) from the planet. Amen
I do not think ALL vietnamese are evil, but I honest think that its government has an evil policy toward its neighbors: Cambodia, Myanmar, Lao, Thailand, and Khmer Kampuchea Krom.
I've tried my best to come up with something good about VietNam, and the following came to mind every time I think of VietNam:
1. Pho88
2. VietNam War - invoked by the communist vietcong
3. Loud speaking and arrogant people...strong D sound
4. Violated the sovereignty of all its neighbor countries
5. PolPot
6. K5 plan to destroy Cambodia
7. CPP HunSen as puppet/slave
8. Main contributor of environmental disaster in Cambodia...deforestation, land grabbing, sea port and sea mass pollution in Cambodia
9. Illegal vietnamese in CAmbodia
10. VietCong spies in Cambodia, Thailand, Lao, and Myanmar
11. Communist country
12. Dog eating country
13. Poor Country with exploded population
14. Aggressor and terrorist
These are some of the obvious things.
The Vietnam govt organized this
protest,not came from real action
of Vietnamese people.
CHINA, PLEASE COME TO DESTROY ALL YUON AND MILTING YUON COUNTRY TO THE SEA,,,,
CHINA, PLEASE USE MISSILES TO DESTROY THE RED DAM.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!
Why the Vietnam government urge China to respect the UN Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea? Have the Vietnam government respect the UNDRIP, Freedom of Internet and Human Rights violation, especially for the indigenous peoples in Vietnam yet?
All china has to do use nuclear submarine and nuke Vietnam into ashes..No need to waste troops?
China can launch missile attack from navy ship, just like NATO did to Lybia right now...
2:06AM! china 's missiles don't have good aim!
*Hun sen will send Khmer soldiers to help his Boss [Hanoi] ....if Viet-nam vs china War Appear soon.
*Viet-nam will send KHMER KROM to First line with China war too.
KHMER DIE ALL WAYS
*I am so Happy about this news. I hope CHINA will destroy Hanoi soon.

3:48 AM
Do you have any recollection when the Chinese shot its own satellite while it was orbiting in space? That event caused the US and international a major headache. Yes, the Chinese shot and destroyed the satellite successfully (with amazing precision).
8:02 AM
That was in the past but China has too much money and she stole technology from others through honey traps. Many beautiful Chinese girls are on spying duty, they are hot and very educated well trained. Today China is in a second place after US. Invisible weapons of China will wipe out a tiny Vietnam in a blink of an eye. China keeps Vietnam alive because of she wants to use Vietnam the same as US want to use Vietnam. Russia is so broke for helping other communist countries and helping Vietnam, so China is competing with the US called ONE on ONE show.

Vietnamese communist must pay the price for what they had done to Cambodia when China-PLA wipe out of Hanoi. So, Cambodian people have a chance to take off the Vietnamese's black tooth and kick hem out of Kampuchea krom ancestor land, so Hanoi became a little Beijing City.
