This research paper seeks to explain the security dilemma being triggered by the increasing might of Chinese naval power in South China Sea. According to the findings of this research paper the show of power may indicate the growing Chinese concerns regarding ensuring the security of their trade activities or being offensive to deter other major powers not to intervene in South China Sea. But this assertive move has led to the rise in the concerns of the other claimant states in South China Sea leading to the security dilemma in this region. Qualitative as well as quantitative research in this paper reveals that if this trend will continue then conflict management and mutual cooperation will become a distant dream in South China Sea pushing it in a bog.
