The military on Friday declared that receptions for high-ranking officers will no longer feature liquor or luxury banquets.
The receptions will also be free of welcome banners, red carpets, floral arrangements, formations of soldiers, performances and souvenirs, according to 10 regulations drawn up by the Central Military Commission (CMC).
The regulations prohibit commission officials from staying in civilian hotels or military hotels specially equipped with luxury accommodation during inspection tours. The 10 regulations also require officials to cut both the number and length of inspection tours, overseas visits, meetings and reports.
