The Chinese government on Thursday released a white paper elaborating on the action plan for the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS), which has been independently developed and operated by China.
China has been promoting international satellite navigation applications and will push forward the international development of China's BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS), said a white paper issued on Thursday.
A Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman on Sunday said the freedom of navigation and overflight in the South China Sea has never been a problem.
China plans to launch 30 Beidou navigation satellites during the 13th five-year plan period (2016-2020), capping its three-step strategy to build a global navigation system by 2020.
China on Wednesday suggested the United States, when talking about "freedom of navigation," make a distinction between commercial ships and warships.
India successfully launched the last of seven navigation satellites yesterday, putting in place an indigenous alternative to the US Global Positioning System (GPS) and entering an exclusive club of countries with such capabilities.
Although there are no problems with free navigation in the South China Sea, certain countries still insist on repeated testing of the waters.
In disregard to China's call not to disturb peace in the South China Sea, the United States has carried out another "freedom of navigation" mission there, with a U.S. Navy destroyer sailing within 12 nautical miles off Zhongjian Dao, part of China-owned Xisha Islands.
After more than 10 days in space, China's 19th Beidou navigation satellite is working autonomously and has set up a link with another satellite.
China's top legislature ended a bimonthly session on Sunday, adopting a law on navigation channels, and giving go-ahead to ease investment rules in three new free trade zones (FTZs).
