Chinese military being trained to have more open image | China's military officers are reportedly undergoing training to learn how to deal with the media, as the military is adopting a more open and transparent image. At a seminar that concluded Saturday at the
University of National Defense, China's top military academy, more than 80 senior
officers studied techniques for international communication, the media environment,
and media skills, Xinhua reports. The training comes as China's military undertakes
more international operations in disaster rescue and relief as well as United
Nations missions that bring it into greater contact with Chinese and foreign media.
"Most Chinese UN peacekeepers have been interviewed by the media," Wu Jieming,
a senior official with the University of National Defense said. Since December
26, 2008 , the Chinese navy has escorted 2,832 ships from China and other foreign
countries in the pirate-infested waters of the Gulf of Aden and off Somalia .
"The Chinese navy had been reported by more than 1,600 media organizations in
the past two years," Wu added. Meanwhile, China has conducted military exchanges
and cooperation with more than 150 countries, and since 2002, it has joined 35
bilateral or multilateral military exercises with 26 nations.
