Being able to sit down to negotiate amicably is the best dispute resolution method.

The trick is how to achieve a "Win-Win" resolution - where both sides can consider acceptable which will mean a compromise - with "sweetened deals" thrown in - where both will benefit in future dealings and engagement.

If indeed a "Win-Win" resolution can be ironed out - then the Asia Pacific region will have one less worry of a conflict igniting unwittingly - and will spell good for the region --- and can concentrate on trade, business, investment, tourism, travel.... all the positive wholesome engagement minus the heartache of skirmishes and conflict - that are destructive in nature.
