Guide to Xi's remarks on military issues published

A guide book designed to help understand President Xi Jinping's remarks on national defense and army building has been published, according to military sources.

The book, covering 10 sections, expounded on Xi's strategic thinking and theories concerning military issues. Xi is also chairman of the Central Military Commission.

The General Political Department of the People's Liberation Army (PLA), which organized the compiling of the book, has issued a circular, urging all officers and soldiers to study the book.

The department said learning the book should be viewed as a key part of the military's political studies. They hope the guide will help servicemen correctly understand Xi's views in military construction.
