A revised regulation dealing with the administration of real estate owned by the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) was recently signed by Chinese President Jiang Zemin, who is also chairman of the Central Military Commission.
The new regulation, an amendment to the former one issued a decade ago, is expected to ensure China's military modernization and marks a new era in the real estate administration of China's army.
The amended regulation standardizes the expansion, use and transfer of military real estate, and links the administration of army's real estate to China's related laws and regulations.
Under the regulation, all the army's real estate belongs to the Central Military Commission. And the PLA's General Logistics Department, on behalf of the Central Military Commission, exercises the rights of ownership and operation of the real estate.
No one may abandon, destroy or deal with the military land without authorization, the regulation stipulated.
In addition, the administration of the real estate of Chinese People's Armed Police is also covered in the regulation.
