Summary

Machine summary

PLA Daily's editorial marking the PLA's 99th founding anniversary reiterates the CMC's framework for defense modernization through the new 'three-step' strategy, calls for deepening political rectification (政治整训) and ideological rectification (思想整风) as ongoing rather than episodic work, and prioritizes development of 'new-domain and new-quality' (新域新质) combat forces alongside the cyber-information system (网络信息体系) as the military prepares its 15th Five-Year Plan. This is standard founding-anniversary political work content; its value is as a record of which institutional priorities—anti-corruption, Xi Jinping Thought indoctrination, and civil-military integration—the PLA's official organ chooses to foreground at the 99th anniversary, one year before the centenary milestone that the editorial explicitly frames as a mobilizing deadline.
