The dispute in the Spratly Islands involves multiple countries, primarily China, Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia, Brunei, and Taiwan, all claiming sovereignty over the islands and surrounding waters rich in Natural Resources like oil and gas. Strategic military and shipping routes also add to the conflict, as control over these areas is seen as vital for national security and economic interests. Historical claims, national pride, and recent escalations, including military buildups and construction activities, further complicate the situation. The lack of a comprehensive legal framework for resolving such disputes contributes to ongoing tensions in the region.
There are several nations with claims to the Spratly Islands. Chief among them, the Philippines, Vietnam, China and Japan have all claimed at least some portion of this archipelago in the past. Which nation has the better claim is a highly subjective matter, and the answer probably depends largely on one's point of view - and nationality. For Pilipino bkit nman kasama sa pag pipilian ang Japan At China? Mas Malapit ng Philippines At Vietnam. Pero yung Spratly ha ang lpit nya Sa Palawan Dpat Sa atin yun.

The owner of the Spratly Islands is a matter of dispute among several countries, including the Philippines, China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Brunei. These countries all claim parts or all of the Spratly Islands.
According to my extensive research, NO ONE own the Spratly Islands, but the Chinese dynasty during year 200 AD claim it and saying those part of the Island are belongs to them. In addition, Chinese dynasty named this island "Nansha Island." This island was not Spratly back since 1791 Captain Spratle name under his name. For sure, China never own Spratley Island, but more relatively (but not really, its close) own Philippine government..
