    Maybe what’s confusing is that it’s called the South China Sea. Not surprising really that China thinks it’s theirs. Let’s rename it to the Brunei Sea or something, then that’ll clarify the situation and solve all the problems.

      Indonesia renamed it as North Natuna Sea. Philippines renamed it as West Philippine Sea.

      Place your bet on which country will be next to rename the sea and what it would be.
