I think the artificial islands is China trying to be clever. Allegedly they are doing that to ensure their commercial traffic, IDK if this is really necessary? But some say that USA (through allies) have China kind of locked in, and could block Chinese transports in case of conflict.
If that is true, I can understand how that is a problem for China, and why they are trying to get around it.
Yep, just look at all their activities in SEA. The Indonesian and Laos governments are already being held hostage since they are using their national budgets and some of their national assets as collateral.
