Luo Yuan: China’s first aircraft carrier named the “Diaoyu Islands” | China Defense Mashup
Diaoyu Islands
I feel to name a first carrier of the Nation should be :
1. Naming after a person who is known for his or her Military prowess
2. Named after something which means "dont mess with me"
3. Named to show "threat"
...... but this is useless and immature behaviour.

Luo Yuan: China's first aircraft carrier named the "Diaoyu Islands"
"The Chinese navy's first aircraft carrier can be named 'Diaoyu Islands', declaring that China's sovereignty over the Diaoyu Islands.", retired Major General Luo Yuan says on 19 August in Beijing.
Luo is Deputy Secretary-General of China Society of Military Science and executive vice president of the China Council for the Promotion of strategic culture. Luo is seemed as the "HAWK" icon of PLA forces.
Luo expresses "‹"‹that opinion in the seminar of "Diaoyu Islands issue and Four areas of Cross-straits" held in 19th afternoon. The "Four areas of Cross-straits" usually means China mainland, Taiwan, Hong Kang and Macau.
Luo says that South Korea Navy named its largest combat vessels – an amphibious assault ship – as "Dokdo" and sent it visit other countries to declare Dokdo is Korean territory.
Luo says the Chinese navy's can do the same thing to name its first carrier as the "Diaoyu Islands", declaring that China's territorial sovereignty over the Diaoyu Islands.
The seminar of "Diaoyu Islands issue and Four areas of Cross-straits" was organized by "Global Times". 20 people including renowned experts, the Chinese "Diaoyu Islands Protection" activists, as well as of representatives of relevant departments from both sides of the four participated the meeting.
