Thi is importnat, to see trends

China hikes spending on military
 
 
China has announced another large increase in its military spending.

The increase of nearly 12% - higher than that of 2003 - will see an extra $2.6bn allocated to defence, officially raising the budget to more than $25bn

 

The reason this is so important is because China is in deep trouble socially. We may see the move towards military exploits - the US, China - to cover over social failure.
