<b>Tension on the Korean peninsula has been high this year, beginning with North Korea's fourth nuclear test in January, which was followed by a <a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html">satellite launch,</a> a string of tests of various missiles, and its fifth and largest nuclear test last month.<br /><br />In July, South Korea agreed with the United States to deploy the US Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) anti-missile system to protect against any North Korean threats.<br /><br />South Korea aims to deploy the system on a golf course, a defense ministry official said on Friday.<br /><br />But the plan has angered China, which worries that THAAD's powerful radar would compromise its security and do nothing to lower temperatures on the Korean peninsula.<br /><br />In a commentary, the ruling C<a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html">ommunist Party's official People's Daily</a> said China's opposition to THAAD would never change as it was a serious threat to the regional strategic security balance.<br /><br />"Like any other country, China can neither be vague nor indifferent on security matters that affect its core interests," the newspaper said in the commentary, published under the pen name "<a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html">Zhong Sheng</a>," meaning "<a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html">Voice of China</a>," often used to give views on foreign policy.<br /><br />The<a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html"> United States and South Korea </a>have to wake up to the fact that the Korean peninsula is no place to take risks, it added.<br /><br />"If the United States and South Korea harm the strategic security interests of countries in the region including China, then they are destined to pay the price for this and receive a proper counter attack," the paper added, without <a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html">elaborating</a>.<br /><br />China has repeatedly promised to take specific steps to respond since the <a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html">THAAD</a> decision was announced, but has given no details about what it may do.<br /><br />On Thursday, the Defense Ministry said China "means what it says" on considering countermeasures against <a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html">THAAD</a>.<br /><br />The United States and South Korea have said<a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html"> THAAD</a> does not threaten China's security or target any country other than<a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html"> North Korea</a>.<br /><br /><a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html">China</a> is North Korea's most important diplomatic and economic partner, but Beijing has been infuriated by its nuclear and missile tests and has signed up for strong United Nations sanctions against North Korea.<br /><br />However,<a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html"> China</a> has continued to call for talks to resolve the<a href="http://todaysupdateph.blogspot.com/2016/10/just-in-kerwin-espinosas-ex-wife-shot.html"> North Korean</a> issue and said sanctions are not the ultimate solution.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />SOURCE:<a href="http://news.abs-cbn.com/overseas/10/01/16/us-skorea-will-pay-the-price-for-planned-missile-system-china-paper"> ABS-CBN</a></b></div>

The massive spending spree will pay for an estimated 6,810 aircraft, and turn China into what Boeing describes as "the first trillion dollar aviation market."</div>

Randy Tinseth, a marketing executive at Boeing Commercial Airplanes, said in a statement that he expects passenger traffic in China to grow by 6.4% a year over the next 20 years.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: CNN, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; padding: 0px 0px 30px;">

<span style="line-height: 1.5;">MANILA - The Philippines' territorial dispute with China over the South China Sea has not caused Manila to rebalance diplomatic ties with either its ally, the United States, or neighboring China, Foreign Minister Perfecto Yasay said on Wednesday.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: franklin-gothic-urw, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; padding: 10px 0px;">
An arbitration court in the Hague infuriated China in July by ruling that China had no historical title over the South China Sea and that it had breached the Philippines' sovereign rights with various actions there.</div>
<div style="font-family: franklin-gothic-urw, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; padding: 10px 0px;">
"We want to make close friendship with China. It does not mean that we'll weaken our friendship with the United States," Yasay told Reuters during a break in a meeting of the senate foreign relations committee.</div>
<div style="font-family: franklin-gothic-urw, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; padding: 10px 0px;">
"We're just saying that in spite of our disputes, as regards China on the South China Sea, there are other aspects of our relationship that can proceed without having to touch upon the South China Sea issue."</div>
<div style="font-family: franklin-gothic-urw, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; padding: 10px 0px;">
On Tuesday evening, President Rodrigo Duterte said he expects talks with China over the maritime dispute within a year.</div>
<div style="font-family: franklin-gothic-urw, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; padding: 10px 0px;">
Duterte, who has been in office for seven weeks, said the Philippines will not raise the issues next month at a summit in Laos of the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), which the Chinese foreign ministry welcomed.</div>
<div style="font-family: franklin-gothic-urw, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; padding: 10px 0px;">
"We look forward to China and the Philippines conducting dialogue at an early date." China's foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said on Wednesday.</div>
<div style="font-family: franklin-gothic-urw, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; padding: 10px 0px;">
"We believe the two sides have the ability and the wisdom to appropriately discuss and resolve problems, promote the return of relations to a track of healthy development, and bring benefits to both countries' people.</div>
<div style="font-family: franklin-gothic-urw, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; padding: 10px 0px;">
Speaking at an army base south of Manila on Wednesday, however, Duterte said he expected all ASEAN members to support the arbitration court's ruling on the maritime dispute, regardless of whether the Philippines raised the matter at the summit.</div>
<div style="font-family: franklin-gothic-urw, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; padding: 10px 0px;">
China claims almost the entire South China Sea through which about $5 trillion worth of sea-borne trade passes every year. Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan and Vietnam also have claims to parts of the sea believed to be rich in oil and gas.</div>
<div style="font-family: franklin-gothic-urw, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; padding: 10px 0px;">
China has made seven artificial islands in the disputed waters, three of them had airfields that can accommodate fighters, bombers and tankers to refuel aircraft.</div>
<div style="font-family: franklin-gothic-urw, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; padding: 10px 0px;">
At the senate hearing, Yasay said the United States will not allow China to reclaim Scarborough Shoal, a rocky outcrop near its former US Navy base in the Philippines, because it will impede in the freedom of navigation.</div>
<div style="font-family: franklin-gothic-urw, Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; padding: 10px 0px;">
In 2012, China seized Scarborough Shoal after a three-month standoff with the Philippines' coast guard.</div>
