What are you talking about? I thought it was pretty clearly and broadly accepted by the mainstream media that India eradicated the entire PLA in hand-to-hand combat at Doklam. All the current PLA are fresh recruits to replenish those losses. Jai hind motherfucker!

Some of it is pretty stupid to be honest, but you are right about the purpose. Those kind of marching drills are quite an easy way to learn teamwork.
That’s not even the worst. Couldn’t find this article before but did now.
If they're going to change something, they should at least improve the fit of their helmets
That looks impressively uncomfortable, almost like it was designed to be a torture device. The shininess also makes it fantastically easy to spot from a great distance.
Oh come on this is just helmet for ceremonial use. It doesn’t matter what it looks like.
On the contrary, I would argue that ceremonial gear needs to especially prioritize aesthetics over function.
India, Taiwan Hold Military Simulations Focusing On Indo-China Border, Taiwan Strait Amid Beijing’s Muscle Flexing
Think tanks from Taiwan and India recently concluded the military simulations, which focused on scenarios pertaining to the Taiwan Strait and the Sino-Indian border in 2035.I can't express how happy I was after reading this news, maybe not as happy as PLA Western Theater Command.

No wonder why they are doing so badly lately, those helmets look like stormtrooper helmets, the literal definition of failure.
That means China must be prepared to fight a full-scale war on two separate fronts simultaneously.
Thankfully, China has the Himalayan mountain ranges and the Tibetan Plateau as a natural shield. What China can do from now on are to build more airbases and runways + roadway strips, more roads and railway lines, plus more platforms and installations that will enable long-range operations of the PLAAF, PLAGF and PLARF across unforgiving terrain and on extended durations ().
In the meantime, China should start working towards establishing arrangements with Nepal, Myanmar and Pakistan that would allow the PLAAF to utilize their airspaces, PLAGF to station surveillance and intelligence equipment (and when required, transportation of troops, equipment and material through their territory), and PLAN to dock warships at their ports in times of war with India.
On the other hand, 2035? Really?
