Issues that had given rise to the current tension may be addressed during the negotiation, and perhaps, mediation by UN and ASEAN. These include clarifying UNCLOS (UN Law of the Sea) principles and definitions (including ambiguities such as the exact meaning of “rock,” “human habitation,” and “economic life”) and obtaining multilateral support from ASEAN (turning the Shoal into an area of cooperation) through the establishment of a maritime zone for the purpose of resource management. Likewise, it could provide a useful prototype in resolving the territorial dispute over the Spratly Islands, which to date, has been the subject of a claim by six countries – the Peoples Republic of China, Republic of China, Malaysia, Vietnam, Brunei, and the Philippines.
