Since illegal #Chinese funding to Indian journalists (and others) is in news, here is a partial list of Chinese organisations which work for CCP and are most likely involved in this scenario. Info provided here has some gaps & I won't go into details, but take a look.

1/
It starts with Strategic Support Force (SSF) & Ministry of State Security (MSS). They command or work with a wide network of local and foreign organisations involved in propaganda, espionage, warfare and R&D. SSF is involved in space, weapon development and other things too.

SSF's oversees multiple departments & I'm not 100% sure about exact hierarchy yet. So take it FWIW.
Network Systems Department under SSF is meant for Information warfare operations through multiple Departments
-Cyber Warfare
-Electronic Warfare
-Multiple country specific

A thread about #Jammu with information about history of the region & #Dogra culture.
Staring with an old portrait of Maharaja Gulab Singh, founder of Dogra dynasty & ruler of undivided Jammu, Kashmir, Laddakh, Gilgit, Baltistan & other territories. Compare with present map

Before his reign, Jammu & surrounding areas had numerous small kingdoms & principalities. They were fiercely independent & proved impossible to be conquered and ruled under one banner.
Gulab Singh was the first one to do so and became 1st Maharaja of the region.

A stamp released in 1934 shows actual territories controlled by the dynasty.
Text reads: Shree Ram Ji sahaay Jambu Kaashmir Tibbetadi National Stamp.
Picture is of Maharaja Hari Singh, last acting ruler till 1947.

I like the old Jambu name 😀

Thread about Chinese PLA Rocket Force (PLARF), missiles and nuclear assets. Read on for a general overview.
For details and maps, visit this link: jjamwal.in/yayavar/chines…

There've been some new updates since this post was published, but those are relatively minor.

1/
PLARF is a unique force which holds the world's largest arsenal of ballistic missiles (BMs) & employs nearly 1 lakh (100 thousand) personnel. It is a separate arm from PLA Army, Air Force and Navy which have their own separate arsenals of SRBMs, cruise missiles (CMs) & SLBMs

2/
There are 2200-2500 ballistic missiles in China, of which 80-110 are ICBMs. There are supposedly 300-320 nuclear warheads which are spread across these ICBMs, SLBMS, ALCMs and a small number of shorter ranged BMs. Nearly all newer BMs are solid fueled apart from older DF-4

A thread about Pakistani Nuclear Forces, their assets and Command & Control structure. If you want just the basics, then read this thread.
For details and maps, go to this link: jjamwal.in/yayavar/pakist…
Questions (not dumb), corrections & feedback welcome.

Pakistan has managed to create a fairly good nuclear command structure and arsenal with help from China and US which ignored the illegal proliferation attempts and even helped the project in some ways. Although not as advanced and susceptible to internal security risks,
2/ ImageImageImage
it accounts for a huge portion of Pakistani defence spending. 

Nuclear Command & Control consists of following organisations:

1. National Command Authority (NCA): Highest decision making command with 6 civilian ministers, 3 military and 1 intelligence as members.

Thread about Chinese Marine Corps (PLAMC). More information and map in last tweet.

It is seemingly the fastest expanding arm of PLA since the last 4-5 years. Till 2017, it was a poorly equipped force with 2 Brigades. Now there are 7, 2 each under Eastern, Northern and

1/n
Southern Theatre Navies and one under direct command of Marine Corps HQ. Total number of troops is around 40,000-50,000 right now and is expected to reach 1 lakh in 12-14 brigades. All Brigades have around 6000 troops except 7th Special Ops Brigade.

2/n
The new Marine brigades follow a Combined Arms structure like Army:

-3 Amphibious Combined Arms Battalions, one of them light.
-1 Battalion each of Air Assault, Artillery, Air Defence, Recon, Combat Support and Service Support.
