China Plans To Upgrade Its Border Infrastructure For PLA Soldiers

Amid standoff with India, Chinese Army on October 29 released schemes to build insulated cabins with “thermal-insulation device for food-storage” for soldiers positioned at high-attitude areas. While not clarifying developments regarding the LAC issue, China's Defence Ministry spokesperson Col Wu Qian said this will support combat effectiveness and support Army’s war-preparedness. For '2+2 Ministerial Delhi Dialogue', he did not comment on India but opposed the 'US-alliance system' based on "Cold War mentality".
