BEIJING: China’s top military body has ordered a sweeping overhaul to restore the credibility of political leaders as the commission faces its largest vacancy in years following a series of corruption scandals.
The Central Military Commission issued regulations in recent days to "comprehensively purge toxic influence and rebuild the image and credibility of political leaders,” the official People’s Liberation Army Daily reported Monday (July 21) on its front page.
