For once, not a military installation on an island in the South China Sea, like the ones China recently built several times, but – surprise, surprise – a vacation resort. Wuzhizhou is the name of the idyll off the coast of Sanya in Hainan. Chinese media already compare it to the Maldives, which Chinese tourists have been unable to visit for almost three years because of the pandemic. However, the area is not entirely without a military presence. Right on the neighboring island, there it is again: a complex of the People’s Liberation Army.
