Talk:People's Armed Police

message: The department has been officially re-named Chinese People's Armed Police Force (or CAPF, as written on their arm patches). Suggest we move the page, anyone agree? -- Seng Yew, 23:58, October 27th, 2006 (UTC +8)
When did this take place? Do you have a reference?  A lot of things are named one thing in China and un-officially called something else in English.  Take their "President" for example.  He's not REALLY a President.  He is the Paramount Leader or General Secretary.  -Knowl  -<(I am questing for Knowledge!) (talk) 17:49, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Name change and/or moving of page?

message: It has been speculated by various elements of the media that the People's Republic of China would use the armed police force to occupy Taiwan, should it deem this necessary, instead of using the People's Liberation Army. This is because the armed police force receives training similar to that of the regular army, has advanced equipment, and more importantly, the use of the police force would make the situation an "internal affair" and would make foreign intervention more difficult politically.
: this would be impossible without some "assistance", the PAP does not have the capability to reach Taiwan, the only possible scenario is that KMT loyalist(professional soldier, non-conscript part of ROCA that control most of the armoured force) defect with KMT; turning Taiwan into an Ireland like scenario where PAP can then land in KMT controlled airfield and port. and of course if that is the case then no foreign intervention would be possible either with PAP or PLA. 
: anyway the reality is no country will intervene on Taiwan behalf because it is impossible to win. the treaty between US-Japan prevent the US from using Japanese bases to launch an attack against forces that is not at war with Japan, so unless PRC attack Japan first or Japan declare war on PRC, the bulk of US force in Asia can't assist. this leave Guam and South Korea and US know well that the moment US force move from Korea, DPRK will start something too. All US can do is to blockade China and force a compromises, US will probably look away if Taiwan get maintain self governance like HK, they can walk away saying they "save the democracy". PRC would have walk away with what it wanted, the unification of China, it doesn't matter if Taiwan is self-rule, all they want is only keep their border a whole. 218.186.17.240 (talk) 22:35, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

message: The mysterious street battle in Kashgar, Xinjiang appears to have been internal to members of PAP, trying to kill each other first using a large truck and then machetes.

message: I know some may find this silly, but someone has suggested that the PAP in the picture is actually female.  It is quite possible, noting the apparent absence of an Adam's apple.  Are females allowed to serve in the PAP?  That is the bigger question.  -Knowl  -<(I am questing for Knowledge!) (talk) 17:45, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

message: I think that, especially given the PAP's subordination to the sole Central Military Commission, a military unit infobox would be appropriate, maybe alongside the agency infobox.--Mach1988 (talk) 23:12, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
