Abstract
Any discussion of the PLA leadership over the past fifteen years is inevitably hampered by lack of information. No “Army List” is published in China, and while major appointments are usually announced, dismissals are almost always left to be inferred. The names of military office-holders have to be correlated from isolated attributions in the Chinese press, with the proviso that the protracted non-appearance of an individual's came does not necessarily indicate his absence from active duty or his demotion.Keywords
