SINGAPORE -- U.S. aircraft carrier, the USS Carl Vinson, docked in Singapore this week, in a display of America's military prowess in Southeast Asia amid a spat between China and the Philippines in nearby disputed waters.

U.S. Navy vessels call at Singapore, a close partner in the region, from time to time, and officials described the visit as part of "daily routine global operations." But the nuclear-powered Vinson, which docked on Sunday, has arrived at a particularly sensitive time. Chinese and Philippine vessels have been embroiled in skirmishes in the nearby South China Sea, raising the risk of escalating conflict.

U.S. Navy personnel would not comment on where the Vinson was headed after its Singapore call, which reporters were invited to cover on Tuesday. Vinson was accompanied by other vessels under America's "Carrier Strike Group One" fleet that includes a missile cruiser and guided-missile destroyers, usually based in California when they are not globe-trotting on missions.

SINGAPORE: Up to a dozen F-15SG fighter jets from the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) could be stationed at Andersen Air Force Base in Guam, which is set to be the fourth RSAF detachment on US soil and the closest one to Singapore.

More details of the fighter training detachment were revealed in a press release issued on Dec 13 by the US Department of the Air Force, which has proposed the bedding down of up to 12 RSAF fighter aircraft and associated mission support at Andersen Air Force Base.

Never forget what Henry Kissinger said: "To be an enemy of the US is dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal"
Very true and Sinkieland will pay dearly.
It is a matter of time before American betrayal comes a-calling.
If possible, come home to ChungKuo.

Aircraft carriers are out of date due your numerous land and air base long range missiles.
That means it needs to be out of missile range, and that means aircraft on board must fly further and carry lower weapons due to fuel load.

Vietnam and Philippines should have done what Malaysia did by quickly extract oil and gas when China was weak.
Malaysia oil and gas concessions went out so far into the sea, it entered into Vietnam claimed territories and instead of fighting, decided on joint development. So Beijing too late to claim Malaysia waters even if they violated with coast guard ships passing through as they know it's too late. How do you remove those hundreds of oil platforms. In this regard, I must say Dr m was brilliant.
