'Senkaku island' in the Pacific Ocean is a disputed territory between which of the following countries ?
Answer: C
The Senkaku islands are disputed between Japan and China.
The uninhabited islands, called Diaoyu by China, are administered by Japan and claimed by China (and also by Taiwan). They lie in the East China Sea, which the paper places in the Pacific Ocean, near important fishing grounds and possible energy reserves, and have been a recurring flashpoint since 2012.
South Korea's island dispute is with Japan, over Dokdo (Takeshima), and Malaysia and Singapore disputed Pedra Branca, which the International Court of Justice decided in 2008. Neither involves the Senkakus.
