Reason One: In recently 5 hundred years, almost all the western countries invaded China, robbed China, they burned Chinese Imperial palace; Especially in Second World War China is the big victim, Japanese militarism killed more than 10 million innocent Chinese ! We China understand clearly if we don't have a powerful military army China may be invaded again ! In this world which country has more reason than China need a strong army ?

Reason Two: Chinese people are peaceful people, in the last 5000 years China was a the biggest country in the world and had the most powerful army , but China didn't invaded other countries! Chinese don't have invasion gene in their blood, other wise all the other countries should be one part of China at lease once !
