Yeah about time they finished negotiating the Code of Conduct.
I suppose the Philippines situation was a message to the region to get on with the negotiation and stop trying to play spoiler to get the US help on the region

So basically lets finish the Code of Conduct or the Philippines situation will come to your country next.

India arbitrarily freezing bank accounts of ByteDance. Looks like they still haven't got over the Ladakh spanking.

China should freeze bank accounts of Land Rover & Jaguar for the same flimsy reason. JLR is owned by an Indian Billionaire who's a major BJP donor. This will be much more damaging to Modi than anything else.

Japan and Indonesia signed a pact on Tuesday allowing the transfer of Japanese defense equipment and technology to Jakarta as the two countries strengthen their military ties in the face of China’s increasingly assertive activity in the region.
So they got Japanese ToT for defence. Fair play for Indonesia(but what did the Japanese got in return? Hm...) but then check this statement below

The ministers “shared grave concern over the continuation and escalation of an attempt to change the status quo by force” and agreed on the importance of observing a rules-based maritime order and respect for international maritime laws, Japan’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

“Together we will maintain and strengthen a free and open maritime order,” Kishi said at a joint news conference after the talks. He said the two countries will speed up a decision on the details of Japanese exports of defense equipment to Indonesia.
Does it remind you anything? "Rules-based order", "free and open maritime order" etc.

As I said thats not good news for China. It shouldn't expect to take these actions on Philippines without any consequences.
The countries on the regions will not sit idly in front of China's moves.

They are words and meek actions. They have no power and can do nothing when China pushes, especially when not even against them directly. All eyes on the USA, which is China's only serious rival. China will not rule this region through kindness; no one does. China can only really dominate this domain when all the inhabitants had exhausted themselves at pushing against China and have become resigned that China is unstoppable. We are still in a phase of showing them that and they are still in a phase of learning so things like this are to be expected.

For the past few weeks SCMP has been churning out Anti-China propaganda that rivals that of BBC /ASPI. Is this Jack Ma trying to send a signal or has SCMP gone rogue?
Either way they need to be shut down. Freedom of press doesn't allow you to spread misinformation and slander against the country you operate in.

That's why India FDI is much smaller than it should have been. Any foreign companies that are successful in India would be targeted with tax evasion.
