Fallon, U.S. Commander, Pushes China to Modernize Its Military
Admiral William Fallon, head of U.S. Pacific Command, was not impressed with the quality of China's People's Liberation Army during his recent trip to Beijing.

In fact, he felt that his seven-day visit that took him to an engineering school, air field and other installations shows the poor quality of Chinese Military.

Fallon feels that a poorly trained PLA is a hazard to long-term U.S. national security. His invitation to China to observe U.S. war games went unanswered as well.
