  • China's Military Modernisation: Recent Trends
    JULY 2020 ISSUE NO. 381 China's Military Modernisation: Recent Trends KARTIK BOMMAKANTI ANANT SINGH MANN ABSTRACT Since the assumption of Xi Jinping to the post of General Secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in 2013, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) has undergone numerous changes, both in its modernisation and organisation, that are meant to ensure that the PLA forces will be battle-ready. The modernisation aims for the PLA to acquire the latest technology and logistics for quick and decisive victories in any theatre of battle. This brief examines these institutional changes in China's military, which have also resulted in the PLA firmly coming under the control of the CPC, ensuring that the loyalty of the PLA is always kept under check.

  • Shared with the DRDO Its Notion of What Design Features and Performance It Would Like
    Occasional Paper ISSUE NO. 324 JULY 2021 © 2021 Observer Research Foundation. All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, copied, archived, retained or transmitted through print, speech or electronic media without prior written approval from ORF. Light Tanks: A Missing Priority for the Indian Army Kartik Bommakanti Abstract The Indian Army’s (IA) difficulties with regard to the acquisition of light tanks are as much self-inflicted as they are a product of fiscal constraints. The Army has exerted only half-hearted efforts in developing its light-armoured capabilities—inconsistent with current Army doctrine and in disregard of history. Indeed, the IA has used light armour in high-altitude operations in the past. This paper argues that the IA is hobbled by an infantry-oriented mindset that does not allow for other areas of force development such as a light-tank capability. Attribution: Kartik Bommakanti, “Light Tanks: A Missing Priority for the Indian Army,” ORF Occasional Paper No. 324, July 2021, Observer Research Foundation. ndia remains locked in boundary tensions with the People’s Republic of China (PRC), and although these crises have momentarily abated, India would need to seriously address the gaps in its ground armour against the PRC. The Indian Army (IA) has been historically biased in favour of medium- and Iheavyweight tanks, and there is an absence of a significant or at least a consequential light-tank component in its armoured corps. The IA’s predilection for medium and heavy tanks is largely due to the service’s preoccupation with India’s foe on its western border—i.e., Pakistan.

  • UNCLOS Must Take Precedence in South China Sea Dispute —British Envoy
    Inflation steady at 4.5 percent for 3rd consecutive month–PSA BYCAI ORDINARIO JUNE 4, 2021 3 MINUTE READ THE country’s inflation rate was steady at 4.5 percent for the third consecutive month, according to the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA). The PSA data showed inflation at the same rate since March. However, inflation in May 2021 was still higher than the 2.1 percent posted in May 2020. In a briefing on Friday, National Statistician Claire Dennis S. Mapa told reporters this was the first time when inflation was at the same rate for three consecutive months. “Movements of prices in the 11 commodity groups are different. There are prices that increased, there are prices that decreased,” Mapa said. He explained that while there were price decreases in some commodities with higher weights in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), there are also commodities which saw increases and this kept inflation at the same rate for the past three months. Mapa said inflation of food and non-alcoholic beverages averaged 4.6 percent, which accounted for 39.5 percent of May 2021 inflation. This was mainly driven by meat prices, which posted a growth of 22.1 percent in May 2021. Meat inflation, Mapa said, has been increasing in double digits since December 2020. Meat prices steadily increased from 10 percent in December 2020 to 17.1 percent in January 2021; 20.7 percent in February; 20.9 percent in March; and 22.1 percent in April and May. For May, Mapa said, pork prices grew 58.4 percent, making this the main driver of meat prices.

China’s Military Modernisation: Recent Trends Kartik Bommakanti and Aditya Gowdara Shivamurthy Abstract China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA) has undergone many changes since Xi Jinping became general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in 2013. It has been modernised, with the latest technology being incorporated, and its organisation overhauled, to make it battle-ready. This paper examines these institutional changes in China’s military, which have also led to the PLA coming firmly under the control of the CPC. This paper updates an earlier version published by ORF in 2020.1 Attribution: Kartik Bommakanti and Aditya Gowdara Shivamurthy, “China’s Military Modernisation: Recent Trends,” ORF Occasional Paper No. 314, May 2021, Observer Research Foundation. ince its first push for modernisation in the 1980s and 1990s, the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) of the People’s Republic of China has undergone a dramatic transformation. The modernisation has involved both constant updates of doctrine, as well as improvement of equipment and Sorganisational structure to better reflect the country’s changing demands of warfare. Doctrinally, the PLA has moved away from the ideal espoused by the republic’s founding father, Mao Zedong – whose main concern was a major conflict with the erstwhile Soviet Union – to one where the military would be more heavily involved in localised conflicts.2 The former Chinese Defence Minister Zhang Aiping had observed in 1983, seven years after Mao’s death: “The principle of war is to achieve the greatest victory at the smallest cost.
