62. Autonomy 維基百科
在過去的幾十年裡，自治制度在無政府主義中掀起
巨大的浪潮。就美國政府而言,自治是指一個人的自
己管理自己。有關美國政府之前的獨立司法自治區
以菲律賓為例， 1916年的菲律賓自治法案成立,為
菲律賓人提供了一個民主自治的範疇,儘管它也為美
國保護自己的主權及利益保留了特權。
In the past few decades, a large movement of autonomism has
emerged in the form of anarchism.
In the United States government, autonomy refers to one's own
self-governance.
One former example of an autonomous jurisdiction into the
United States government belong to the Philippine Islands ; the
Philippine Autonomy Act of 1916 provided the framework for
the creation of an autonomous government providing the
Filipino people (Filipinos) broader domestic autonomy, though
it reserved certain privileges to the United States to protect its
sovereign rights and interests.

177. The area is potentially rich in oil and natural gas deposits; however,
the estimates are highly varied. The Ministry of Geological Resources
and Mining of the People's Republic of China estimate that the South
China Sea may contain 17.7 billion tons of crude oil (compared
to Kuwait with 13 billion tons). In the years following the
announcement by the ministry, the claims regarding the South China
Sea islands intensified.[3] However, other sources claim that the proven
reserve of oil in the South China Sea may only be 7.5 billion barrels,
or about 1.1 billion tons.[4] According to the U.S. Energy Information
Administration (EIA)'s profile of the South China Sea region, a U.S.
Geological Survey estimate puts the region's discovered and
undiscovered oil reserves at 28 billion barrels, as opposed to a Chinese
figure of 213 billion barrels.[5] The same EIA report also points to the
wide variety of natural gas resource estimations, ranging from 900
trillion cubic feet (25.5 trillion cubic meters) to 2 quadrillion cubic feet
(56.6 trillion cubic meters).

The TRA obliges us to maintain the United States' capacity to resist
any resort to force or coercion that would jeopardize the security of
Taiwan. This obligation is consistent with America's overall strateg*
in the region, our commitment to peace and stability, and our regional
military posture. The Administration's commitment to maintaining
approximately 100,000 troops in the region for the foreseeable future
is well-known and widely appreciated throughout the region. The
presence of 100,000 U.S. military personnel represents the
capabilities of the U.S. Eighth Army and Seventh Air Force in Korea,
III Marine Expeditionary Force and Fifth Air Force in Japan, and the
U.S. Seventh Fleet.
