Abstract

Malaysia’s claim at Spartly Island or also best known as Layang-Layang Island, Erica Reef, Investigator Shoal, Mariveles Reef, Ardasier Reef, Commodore Reef, Amboyna Cay, Barque Canada Reef, James Shoal, North Lucionia Shoals, and Shout Luconia Shoals has overlapped with other countries claims. This research employed normative approach method by means of literature review. The review results reveals that United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) 1982 differentiates between right and responsibility among countries regarding rocks and island. As one of the islands claimed by Malaysia, LayangLayang Island is apparently rock and has at the moment turned an Island after being landfilled. Despite numerous arguments, there does not exist the international law that regulates the right and responsibility toward coastal state that has rock and whose status has promoted to Island.
