..China’s state-run news agency Xinhua reported that on March 20, two research stations were recently launched on two of China’s large man-made islands in the West Philippine Sea. One on Kagitingan (also called Fiery Cross) and the other on Zamora (also called Subi) Reef.
The Xinhua report said that the facilities featured labs on ecology, geology and the environment aimed at supporting scientists in field investigation, sampling and scientific research in the Spratlys, a hotly disputed territory in the Philippine waters but also with areas claimed by Vietnam and of course, China.
