Four Corners on ABC and ABC iview S63E29 profiles tensions in the South China Sea – Troubled Waters is a compelling documentary that sheds light on the escalating tensions in the South China Sea, marked by a violent clash between the Filipino and Chinese Coast Guards in June this year.
The confrontation, one of the worst in recent history, involved knives and axes.
The documentary explores the broader geopolitical implications, including the Philippines’ deepening partnerships with Australia and Japan, highlighted by a landmark defence deal.
As the conflict intensifies, questions loom about the potential involvement of the United States and the future of the region’s stability.
Troubled Waters examines why these clashes have become more frequent over the past two years and how major powers like the US, Japan, and Australia are intertwined in the South China Sea dispute.
Troubled Waters produced by CNA Productions goes to air on Monday 2 September at 8.30pm on ABC TV and ABC iview. See more at abc.net.au/news and on ABC News social media platforms.
