According to an editorial published on the PLA Daily website, the PLA said it would confront “demons” and “intimidation” head on.
It added that the Chinese military was willing to “dare its sword,” as it has a proven track record in protecting the nation’s interests.
China does not seem to be threatened by the US government’s current stance on the South China Sea dispute.
In fact, the PLA cited China’s determination during the Korean War, as well the recalcitrance it displayed against the United States during the Vietnam War in the 1960s.
