The Journey of Glory photo exhibition opened on Monday at UN headquarters in New York to mark the 90th anniversary of the founding of the People's Liberation Army.

It illustrates 90 years of achievements of the PLA, led by the Chinese Communist Party, in its fight for the independence and liberation of the Chinese nation; safeguarding the sovereignty, security and territorial integrity of the country; and participating in the great cause of building socialism with Chinese characteristics, said Major General Huang Xueping, head of the Military Staff Committee of China's Permanent Mission to the United Nations.

It also shows that the PLA is committed to maintaining world peace and stability and continuously demonstrating China's responsibility as a permanent member of the UN Security Council, Huang said.
