From the supplier: Author Ian Townsend-Gault makes a number of assertions about pro-active efforts in preventive diplomacy in the South China Sea. Among them is a comment on the inability of analysts to fully grasp the complexities of the territorial disputes in that area, and an appeal for Asian cooperation in environmental preservation. Townsend-Gault's sincerity is commendable but it should be pointed out to him that in the real world of international politics, environmental matters pertaining to the Spratly Islands are not high in the priorities list of those disputing the ownership of the area.
