China to Open Disputed Islands for Tourism-Ausia Jones

        Sightseeing cruises to China's newest city, Sansha, located on a disputed island in the South China Sea, are set to commence this month, April. The move is certain to add to the dispute over sovereignty claims to the area.Woody Island, known as Yongxing Island in Chinese, has a population of about a thousand, including military personnel. It's located 300 kilometers southeast of Hainan and was established as China's latest prefecture in June 2012. China considers Sansha its newest city. This city looks beautiful from the picture I have seen online. This would be a very relaxing cruise that I would enjoy.
