Tensions Are Growing in the South China Sea

The US and the Philippines kicked off one of the largest military exercises in waters near the South China Sea on Monday.

On today’s Big Take, host Oanh Ha and Bloomberg Senior Editor Bill Faries break down why who controls this vast body of water matters for South East Asia and the rest of the world.
