Taiwanese student creates map of China’s PLA bases

A Taiwanese college student
has created this intricate map showing China’s vast network of military bases, including those arrayed across the strait from Taiwan.

The map,
titled “PLA bases and facilities”
had been circulating in Taiwan’s military enthusiast circles since June last year.

However,
a netizen recently posted it on the popular online bulletin board PTT,
where it started to go viral last week, with over 600,000 views as of publication.

As for how Wen verified the authenticity of the location of each base,

Wen mainly used public open-source sites such as

Wikipedia,
Baidu Tieba,
and Google Maps.

Other sources include papers from military academies and Taiwan’s military.

The map
was created by Joseph Wen (溫約瑟),
a senior in the Music Department at Soochow University in Taipei.

CTS News program
“Romance of the Three Kingdoms”
(三國演議) on Saturday (June 18)

said that as an amateur military enthusiast, he had been wanting to create a map of People’s Liberation Army (PLA) bases for quite some time and started to post one online on June 14, 2021, for the public to freely peruse.

Wen said that
he had initially planned on just posting People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) bases only because their runways are fairly easy to spot.

However,
the map has since grown to include 782 areas of interest, including China’s core military and political organs,

army bases,
naval bases,
rocket force facilities,
strategic support bases,

more than 50 military schools, and important military-industrial facilities, such as Dalian Shipyard, Jiangnan Shipyard, and Huangpu Shipyard.

For example, he said he was able to

pinpoint the location of the 666 brigade of the People’s Liberation Army Rocket Force (PLARF)

after a photo was leaked on China’s state-run CCTV.

In the photo,
there are two transparent lighting covers above the building, which matches a structure found in a building located in Henan Province’s Xinyang.
