Headline: Barbie movie banned in Vietnam
Caption: According to the country's state-run Tuoi Tre newspaper, the government has banned the film over a scene which features a map showing China's controversial 'nine-dash line' - a unilaterally claimed territory in the South China Sea. "We do not grant licence for the American movie Barbie to release in Vietnam because it contains the offending image of the nine-dash line." Barbie is the latest movie to be banned in the Southeast Asian country for depicting China's controversial nine-dash line, which is used on Chinese maps to illustrate its territorial claims over the South China Sea.
