Tensions are ramping up between China and Singapore about the nine Terrex Infantry Carrier Vehicles currently detained by Hong Kong customs.
This week alone saw the Singapore government demanding the immediate return of the nine armoured troop carriers, with Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen calling the seizure illegal.
To recap yet again about the issue, it's been six weeks since Hong Kong authorities seized the Singapore Armed Forces vehicles while they were shipped back home from military exercises in Taiwan. Holding sovereignty over Hong Kong (and considering Taiwan a renegade island), China wasn't too happy about it, and thus lodged a diplomatic protest about Singapore's relationship with Taiwan.
