Indonesia urged Southeast Asian countries to each patrol a part of the disputed South China Sea to improve security, Defense Minister Ryamizard Ryacudu said on Friday. "For the South China Sea, I went around to friends-Asean defense ministers- so that each country that faces the South China Sea patrols up to 200 nautical miles, around 230 kilometers," he said.
