Rising China disregarding neighbours: Japan study: The rising might of China is causing it to act with increasing disregard towards its neighbours, a Japanese government-funded study said on Friday.
"China, against the backdrop of its rising national power and improvement in its military power, is increasingly taking actions that can cause frictions with neighbouring countries without fear," said the East Asian Strategic Review.
The study, published on Friday by the National Institute for Defence Studies, is an annual venture commissioned by Japan's Defence Ministry, and influences national defence policy.
