Inspectors reexamine armed forces, military academies

Xinhua, May 17, 2016 Adjust font size:

The discipline inspection group under the Central Military Commission (CMC) has sent inspectors to armed forces and military academies for reexamination.

The new round of inspection covers the People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy, the air forces, rocket force, Academy of Military Science, National Defense University, National University of Defense Technology as well as the armed police.

Previous inspections found problems with some leading officials, including lax adherence to discipline and rules, undesirable work styles, misconduct in equipment purchases and housing distribution.

The cases have been transferred to Communist Party of China (CPC) organizations of the units inspected and CMC disciplinary authorities for punishment.

The reexamination will target correction of violations and special attention will be paid to emerging problems in the units. Endi
