@binbi8177 Veterans of what conflict? I'm sure the Chinese military has plenty of experience attacking fishermen and protestors.

@binbi8177 China before the Korea War had very experienced officers from decades of war, and technological requirements were less important. If China attempts to invade Taiwan today, an army of conscripts isn't going to have the know-how to face F-16s and tomahawk missiles smashing into troop carriers.

@J_X999 The military still has to compete with the private sector for technical jobs. Are you saying youth unemployment is only affecting unrelated industries? It is hard to tell what type of jobs young people can't find because China is now censoring the bad news.
