What i dont get is why China needs such a huge military build up when it has no significant external enemys. Im tempted to think that its only potential enemy is its own people.

This is correct. The Chinese have been morally bankrupt for more than 100 years. Of course, the some can be said about any regieme, however, the Chinese, the Russians, and just about every middle eastern country, are far worse than most.

Vladmir Putin is a muderer and a corrupt politician (yes, liberals, I know he isn't the only one)

The Chinese government is a failed experiment in tyranny.

The middle east is perhaps the best example because they are little more than a radical, racist, anti-everything, pro-nazi theocratic society of murderers.

1. The military along with the People's Armed Police continue to repress their own people along with subject people's like the Tibetans.
2. Their dream is to "liberate" Taiwan from its freedoms like democracy and freedom of speech.

But surely if they had *really* intended to invade Taiwan they would have done so by now?

My first thought is that they just learned their lesson from the Opium Wars, if you have something we want and we can take it we will take it. China's dedicated a great deal of effort to making sure we know that whatever we may want from them we can't take it. The government is already a pretty thorough enemy of the people, I don't see what a military buildup changes in that regard.
