Senator Wong

This book is written for all who are interested to know the likely outcomes to the island disputes that are occurring in the Asia-Pacific region revolving around countries such as China, Japan, Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia & Brunei and with the involvement of powers such as the United States, India and Russia. More powers will come into the scene to lay their bids and situation would become more complicated over time. As a China-watcher for the past 20 years, I am sharing my personal view, assessment and prediction of the likely outcome of the island disputes in the East and South China Seas based on historical, political, psychological and military perspectives. For many who are watching the developments, I am sure there some lingering questions as to the likely outcome. Questions that people are interested include: a. Will China go to war? b. Will China go to war with Japan? c. Will China go to war with the U.S.? d. Will Japan attack China? e. Will the U.S. attack China? f. Could China win the next war As events in the East and South China Seas unfold further, I believe that people are interested to know the answers to the above questions, as well as some others related questions. In this book, I will attempt to provide some personal insight into the likely outcomes by way of Q&A. Hence, the title of the book is "Ten Questions on Could China Win the Next War?"
