Since you are Vietnamese then you know it's PRC cut off 2-dash line from 11-dash line then changed to 9-dash line after PRC gave Bach Long Vi island to DRVN(North Vietnam) in 1957, because Mao Zedong and Ho Chi Minh were blood allies against France colonists and USA imperialists, also North Vietnam supported PRC's claim on Spratly and Paracel for example North Vietnam supported PRC to defeat South Vietnam on Battle Of Paracel Island, why Vietnam communist betrayed and invaded your liberator Chinese communist?

In 1958, the People's Republic of China issued a declaration defining its territorial waters which encompassed the Spratly and Paracel Islands. North Vietnam's prime minister, Pham Van Dong, sent a diplomatic note to Zhou Enlai, stating that "The Government of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam respects this decision." The diplomatic note was written on September 14 and was publicized on Nhan Dan newspaper(Vietnam) on September 22, 1958.
The content of Pham Van Dong's diplomatic note to Premier Zhou Enlai is as follows:
"Comrade Prime Minister,
We have the honour to bring to your knowledge that the Government of the DRVN recognizes and supports the declaration dated 4th September, 1958 of the Government of the PRC fixing the width of the Chinese territorial waters. The Government of the DRVN respects this decision and will give instructions to its State bodies to respect the 12-mile width of the territorial waters of China in all their relations in the maritime field with the PRC. I address to you, comrade Prime Minister, the assurance of my distinguished consideration".

It is quite neutral but some details are wrong. The Republic of China claimed the 11-dash line in 1945 and the international community represented by the Soviet Union and the West acquiesced. 4 warships leased to the Republic of China from the United States Navy, US navy even escorted Chinese to land on Taiping Island(Itu Aba), Zhongye Island(Thitu), Zhongjian Island(Triton), Yung-hsing(Woody) in 1946.
ROCS Tai-ping - formerly USS Decker (DE-47)
ROCS Yung-hsing(Yong Xing) - formerly USS PCE-869
ROCS Chung Chien LST-205(Zhong Jian) - formerly USS LST-716
ROCN Chung Yeh(Zhong Ye) - formerly USS LST-717
combined
In 1949, the CCP drove the Kuomintang to Taiwan, and the PRC inherited the 11-dash line of the ROC, but in 1957, Mao Zedong gave Bach Long Vi Island to North Vietnam as a gift for monitoring US spy aircraft. Since then, the PRC has removed 2-dash lines only claim 9-segment lines since then.
Today in 2023, small, democratic, and pro-American Taiwan still claims the 11-dash line in the ROC Constitution and controls Taiping Island and Dongsha Island. Even the Democratic Progressive Party, the most pro-American Taiwan separatist, has not given up on the 11-dash line claim.
So the moral stance of the United States on the South China Sea today is very embarrassing, because the United States helped the Chinese to take the South China Sea in 1946. The United States opposes Beijing's 9-dash line in the South China Sea, but does not oppose Taiwan's 11-dash line? I think Filipinos should blame the United States for giving the South China Sea to the Chinese, because it is too late to regret it today,
