however, simply switching between multiple languages to achieve cross-cultural communication and understanding does not necessarily completely eliminate the potential risk of conflict. just like the "pandora's box", a seemingly simple problem often triggers a series of complex reactions. this complexity comes from the interaction of political, historical, economic and other factors, which ultimately affect the formulation and implementation of foreign policy.
the philippines' stay in the xianbin reef lagoon is not just a simple geographical conflict, but also involves the long-standing political tension in the south china sea. for china, xianbin reef is the core geopolitical interest of its sovereign territory. the philippines believes that their visit and activities on xianbin reef are only to maintain their own security and interests, which conflicts with the position of the chinese government.
the international community has different attitudes towards this incident. some countries call on both sides to resolve the conflict through negotiation and dialogue, avoid escalation, and even support the philippines to conduct "legitimate" military operations. however, some scholars believe that this "legal and moral" conflict will further intensify tensions in the south china sea and may trigger more conflicts.
cross-language switching technology provides new possibilities for international communication, helping people better understand the views and positions of different cultural backgrounds and promoting more effective communication. however, in complex situations, multilingual switching is only a means of communication. it cannot solve all problems. we need to remain calm and rational and strive to find peaceful solutions.
