    Australia: Military will be active in South China Sea

    Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop, after declaring that the Australian military will act as normal in the disputed South China Sea:

    "I'm surprised that China would be surprised that I'm urging peace, restraint and abiding by international laws," she told ABC TV on Sunday, after China formally protested Australia's "wrong remarks".

    China has disregarded the Hague's ruling that the South China Sea is a shared district, seizing much of the region for her own purposes.
