Chinese communist party increases military spending KEAN: The BBC reports the latest on defense spending in the mainland. The CCP says it plans to increase military spending by nearly 18% this year to nearly 60 billion U.S. dollars. Just before the announcement, the U.S. government released a report criticizing China's military spending, voicing concern over advances in space and cyberspace. In the report, Washington claimed that the real Chinese defense budget for 2007 was at least double the stated amount. Other nations have also expressed concern about China's growing military power. They say Beijing is not open enough about what it is spending its money on. Tags: China, Chinese, communist, cyberspace, military, party, space |

Masters and Slaves - Military Spending - Poverty - War A Revolution Team Production Masters and Slaves -- Military Spending -- Poverty -- War Under Construction: The World has money to spend on weapons but when it comes to feeding the poor and helping the less fortunate, it gives a blind eye....
