CHINA-INTERNAL: COMPOSITION OF NEW CENTRAL MILITARY COMMISSION
|
Rumours circulating on Wechat this (August 31, 2017) morning mention the composition of the new Central Military Commission (CMC). It says the new CMC will have one Chairman (Xi Jinping) and four Vice Chairmen: Xu Qiliang, Zhang Youxia, Wei Fenghe and Li Zuocheng. There will be no CMC members.
(Comment: The CMC presently has one Chairman, two Vice Chairmen and seven members. Such a change would be drastic as it mean that the CMC will not have representatives from the PLAN, PLA Rocket Force and PLA Strategic Support Force leaving them without a 'voice at the high table'.)
