I live in China, teach English here, First, about the sea lanes. What I am told by my Chinese friends is that they would like to control the sea lanes between Taiwan and China so they could put more pressure on Japan. If Japan does something they don't like they can shut down that area of the ocean for shipping to Japan. Ships would have to take the long way around.
Second, I have a plan. I think, and this is a little tongue in cheek, that the U.S. should let China have Taiwan but they must also take North Korea. Who would not rather have North Korea controlled by China instead of the Crazy man who is there now. I know this isn't completely serious but I don't think its that bad of an idea.

You do realize 23 Million Starving North Koreans is a massive burden. Even China who has enought money to feed these people for decades to come ($800 Billion Foreign Reserve @ $5 B/Yr) have there limits too.
