With more corruption and waste,the PLA needs more money lest soldiers starve.The figure,however,is meaningless in that ,as many say, China has two system,one declared,one functioning. Money spent in missile reseach is increased ,for example,but who know which will carry it out, where the bankroll is. Remenber the Bureau of Copper Reservation?
The announcement of the increase of militory budget is mainly in concern with instigating patriotism ,slavish of course. Anyway,the relative inferiority to TAIWAN and JAPAN is deteriorating ,due to the officials and officers' inefficiency. 如果大陆的左翼团结起来、表达共识，就能建设性的推动民主化变革，改变腐败无能、贫富悬殊的 状况！党是所有成员共同努力的结果,非谁的私物。党的代表由党员公推，公职人员由公民选举。欢迎共同 努力，改造中国，改造世界！ 中国社会党(Socialist party,China) http://groups.google.com/group/SocialistpartyChina -- _______________________________________________ Get your free email from http://freemail.asiamail.com _______________________________________________ Marxism-Thaxis mailing list Marxism-Thaxis@lists.econ.utah.edu To change your options or unsubscribe go to: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/listinfo/marxism-thaxis
