It has historically been uninhabited, and nations like China and Japan claimed it to be their overseas territory. After World War II, the islands and the sea area around it were mandated by United Nations. Today they are administered by the Republic of China, which calls it the Dongsha Islands (東沙群島) or "East Sand Islands", and assigns the place a postal code (817).

Roti prata, the Singaporean counterpart to Malaysia's roti canai, is a pancake made of dough composed of fat, egg, flour and water and prepared specially similarly to roti canai.
Also, roti prata variations are more likely to be known by names such as cheese prata or onion prata rather than with a roti prefix, and mostly in the English language.
