    Excerpt
    China has installed rocket launchers on a disputed reef in the South China Sea to ward off Vietnamese military combat divers, according to a state-run newspaper, offering new details on China’s ongoing military build-up. News about the installation of rocket launchers on Kagitingan (Fiery Cross) Reef came on Tuesday as China and the Philippines prepared to open bilateral talks aimed at resolving their territorial dispute on the South China Sea. The talks will begin on Friday in Guiyang Cty, in China's Guangzhou, according to Philippine Ambassador to China Jose Santiago Sta. Romana.
