Please notice that ALL PLA-N's big boats (amphibs too) and best subs are in this area, not in front of Taiwan or Japan.
So, the showing finger at the East while they prepare solely the West.
The first row of the game is to take the Spratleys.
So as I see it, they make actions, punctually, like they already did against Vietnam, but on a larger scale.
When it is done, go further ahead.
They need to secure the inner sea and the SLOCs.

They don't have to worry about their pilots, they have
our pilots, and Singapore's pilots, and the UK's pilots as part of the 5 power defence agreement. One of our officers runs their Air Defence network, and until recently we ran butterwoth AFB, and will continue to station troops and equipment as needed for exercises and operations in the country. And so will the UK, and believe it or not Singapore would not be prepared to let the PRC over take Malaysia, not now, not ever.
And
then you have the USA to consider.
