A ship of the Chinese Coast Guard is seen near a ship of the Vietnam Marine Guard in the South China Sea, about 210km off shore of Vietnam May 14, 2014. KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia called on Thursday for disputes over the South China Sea to be resolved by peaceful means, amid a standoff between Chinese and Malaysian vessels that a US think tank said had been going on for months.
US and Australian warships arrived in the South China Sea this week near an area where a Chinese government survey vessel, the Haiyang Dizhi 8, has been operating close to a drillship under contract to Malaysian state oil company Petronas, regional security sources have said.
Last week, the Haiyang Dizhi 8, accompanied by a Chinese Coast Guard vessel, entered Malaysia's exclusive economic zone and began a survey close to where the West Capella was operating. On Thursday, the Haiyang Dizhi 8 was still within Malaysia's EEZ, about 337km off Borneo, data from ship tracking website Marine Traffic Showed.
Three US warships and an Australian frigate conducted a joint exercise in the South China Sea this week, near the site of the West Capella's operations, officials and security sources have said.The area is near waters claimed by Vietnam, Malaysia and China, which claims most of the energy-rich South China Sea through a U-shaped"nine-dash line" on its maps not recognised by its neighbours.
