Exactly the kind of blunt honesty that I so appreciate. No longer just reciting the 'Politically Correct' government line. Defined are three preceived fears - 1) terrorists, 2) USA, and 3) civil war (disunionists). Not the sort of response that a Politically Correct government official dares to admit. But simply a blunt opinion of why China needs it military.

Curious. Threats from Tiawan, VietNam, Russia, and Japan are not listed.

Are demonstrations against new government laws by one in eight citizens of Hong Kong also considered disunionists?
