System to guide suits of civilians vs military

Beijing court and the People's Liberation Army established a working system on Tuesday to help resolve civilian-military disputes.

"The system will not only help us efficiently handle a rising number of disputes brought by ongoing military reform, but also improve our communications with military courts," said Wu Zaicun, president of Beijing No 1 Intermediate People's Court.

China began a massive reform of its military two years ago. It has included merging departments to optimize efficiency, and putting restrictions on commercial activities to safeguard security and prevent corruption.
