China’s land-based armed forces published the first edition of a new military newspaper on Saturday.
People's Liberation Army Ground Force’s Renminlujun will be published from Tuesday to Saturday every week, Xinhua reported. It replaces the publications circulated among China's seven military area commands before they were reorganized into several battle zone commands.
Its front page on Saturday featured a profile on the inauguration of the Army of the People's Liberation Army, and articles concerning the building of a strong and modern new land force.
An editorial in the publication said the new paper will continue to uphold the theories and policies of the Communist Party of China and promote ways to build and modernize the country's land forces.
