China ousts 14 military lawmakers as part of anti-corruption campaign

Credited from: SCMP

  • Fourteen military lawmakers have been dismissed from the National People’s Congress (NPC) in China since March 2023.
  • This rate of dismissal has not been seen in 40 years and greatly exceeds previous terms, where fewer lawmakers were removed.
  • The dismissals are linked to Xi Jinping's ongoing anti-corruption campaign, targeting several high-ranking military officials.
  • Recent investigations have ensnared notable figures such as Admiral Miao Hua and former defense minister Li Shangfu, among others.
  • Experts suggest these actions reflect intensifying efforts to combat corruption among senior PLA officials.
