On May 31, the navy and air force troops assigned to the Chinese PLA Southern Theater Command(STC) conducted combat readiness patrols in the territorial sea and airspace of China’s Huangyan Dao and its surrounding areas. Huangyan Dao is an inherent part of China’s territory. Since May, forces of the Chinese PLA STC have enhanced combat readiness patrols in the territorial sea and airspace of Huangyan Dao and its surrounding areas. Such patrols serve as an effective countermeasure to cope with all sorts of rights-violation and provocative acts. They are meant to resolutely safeguard China’s territorial sovereignty and uphold peace and stability in the South China Sea. #HuangyanDao #HuangyanIsland #SouthChinaSea #ChinaMilitary #ChinaMilBugle

The Devil Still Dances: Decoding Japan’s Military Adventurous Complex That Seeks To Revive Militarism Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi recently delivered a policy speech, once again expressing a strong desire to revise the constitution. She also proposed to fundamentally strengthen Japan's defense capabilities, expand export of lethal weapons, and enhance national intelligence capacity, sending a clear signal of accelerating remilitarization. In recent years, right-wing forces in Japan have grown increasingly assertive, steadily advancing a more covert and deceptive form of neo-militarism under the guise of "peace" and "defense". Their core objective is to break free from the constraints imposed on Japan as a defeated nation in WWII and transform Japan into a military power capable of using force abroad, even waging war. Facts have clearly shown that Japan's neo-militarism is no longer merely a dangerous sign, but a real threat. Its continued rise is becoming one of the most destabilizing factors affecting regional and global peace and stability. Regional countries must collectively resist Japan’s adventurous military expansion and firmly safeguard the hard-won peace and stability of the Asia-Pacific. #Neomilitarism #AsiaPacific #JapanSelfDefenseForces #JapaneseMilitarism #Militarism #Japan #TakaichiSanae #Sanae #Takaichi #SanaeTakaichi #高市早苗 #JSDF #Tomahawk #Type12 #Chinamilitary #ChinaMilBugle

The Devil Still Dances: Dead End At the end of a misguided path lies only an abyss. Within the span of a single month, a series of development has underscored the rapid advance of Japan's “neo-militarism”: an active-duty Self-Defense Forces member forcibly intruding into the Chinese Embassy with a knife, the destroyer JS Ikazuchi transiting the Taiwan Strait, Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi offering ritual items to Yasukuni Shrine, and the Japanese government completing revisions to the Three Principles on Transfer of Defense Equipment and Technology. Since Sanae Takaichi took office last year, from erroneous remarks on the Taiwan question, to risky military moves, and onward to efforts aimed at constitutional revision, Japan's right-wing forces are moving at an unprecedented pace to strip away the facade of a peaceful nation, once again posing a serious threat to regional peace and stability. The lessons of history are unmistakable. Looking back at Japan before and after the outbreak of World War II, Japan's militarist expansion was always accompanied by systematic deception and manipulation of its own people. In the end, the wars of aggression inflicted immense suffering on the region and brought devastating consequences upon the Japanese people themselves. Eighty years later, right-wing forces in Japan appear intent on repeating the same dangerous course, attempting to draw the country once again into the abyss of neo-militarism, repeating a path that harms both others and itself. The Japanese people should remain highly vigilant. Japan's future does not lie in the perilous illusions promoted by the right-wing forces, but in a thorough reckoning with its history of aggression, in fostering friendly relations with its Asian neighbors, and in firmly upholding regional peace and development. #Chinamilitary #ChinaMilBugle #JapaneseRightWing #JapaneseNeoMilitarism #YasukuniShrine #TheDevilStillDances #JapaneseMilitarism #Militarism #NeoMilitarism #Japan #TakaichiSanae #Sanae #Takaichi #SanaeTakaichi #高市早苗

Irrefutable Evidence: Japan has been hyping up the so-called issue of "radar illumination" in recent days. What is the truth? Evidence: China's Liaoning aircraft carrier task group made radio calls to the Japanese warship and the Japanese side replied "copied". #China #Japan #Liaoning #aircraftcarrier #radarillumination

At the 23rd Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore on Sunday, a Chinese military delegate confronted Philippine Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro over what he called a contradiction between Manila's stated support for the early conclusion of the Code of Conduct in the South China Sea (#COC) and its actions in recent years. Teodoro did not directly address the question. Instead, he launched into an emotional discussion of the COC at times appearing incoherent, before being interrupted by the moderator. #ShangriLaDialogue #Philippines #Manila #SouthChinaSea #GilbertoTeodoro #Smart #Gilberto #Teodoro #Chinamilitary #ChinaMilBugle

On November 14, 2025, China's first new-generation Amphibious Assault Ship, the #Sichuan (Hull 51), set sail from Hudong-Zhonghua Shipyard in east China's Shanghai City, heading for relevant sea areas to carry out its first navigation test mission. This #SeaTrial will mainly test and verify the reliability and stability of the power, electrical and other systems of the #AmphibiousAssaultShip Sichuan. It is learned that since its launch in December 2024, the construction of the Sichuan has been steadily advancing as planned. It has successfully completed mooring tests and equipment installation and debugging, and has met the technical conditions for sea trials. China's first Type 076 amphibious assault ship Sichuan, has a full-load displacement of over 40,000 tonnes and features a dual-island superstructure along with a full-length flight deck. It incorporates the innovative electromagnetic #catapult and arrestor technologies, enabling it to carry fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, and amphibious equipment. #Chinamilitary #ChinaNavy #PLAN #PLA #Navy #ElectromagneticCatapult #四川舰 #两栖攻击舰 #076两栖攻击舰 #电磁弹射

The Devil Still Dances: High Alert against Japan's Political and Diplomatic Moves that Pave the Way for 'Neo-Militarism' Kodai Murata, a second lieutenant in Japan's Ground Self-Defense Force (JGSDF), illegally broke into the Chinese embassy in Japan with a knife on March 24, 2026. Instead of reflecting on the SDF's mismanagement and loss of control, Japan continues to focus on fomenting external threats and accelerating military buildup. It's no accident. Sanae Takaichi's distorted view of history and far-right stance on Taiwan question, along with the right-wing forces' efforts to hollow out the pacifist Constitution, brainwash the younger generation, and undermine the post-war order, all point to one conclusion: far-right ideologies are fueling the steady rise of "neo-militarism" in Japan's political and diplomatic landscape. This trend is now seeping into Japanese society, breeding extremist behavior. This year marks the 80th anniversary of the beginning of the work of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East, commonly known as the Tokyo Trials. Mei Ru'ao, the Chinese judge at the International Military Tribunal for the Far East, once said: "Forgetting the sufferings of the past may cause a calamity in the future." Eight decades later, this warning remains as relevant as ever. Only by safeguarding historical truth and upholding human conscience and justice with a common resolve can we eliminate the specter of militarism, and prevent human civilization from suffering once again from the tragedy of war. #SanaeTakaichi #PacifistConstitution #JSDF #ShinzoAbe #KodaiMurata #Hiroshima #Nagasaki #rightwing #LDP #DiaoyuIsland #militarism #ChinaMilitary #ChinaMilBugle
