CHAIRMAN Mao Zedong's grandson yesterday proposed the application of Maoism to tackle information warfare.
Mao Xinyu, a senior research fellow at the People's Liberation Army Academy of Military Science, is a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
It is the third time the descendant of the founder of New China has attended the annual session of the top political advisory body.
"My proposals on the last two occasions were not about militancy, but this time I urge that we should map out future information warfare with Maoism," Mao said.
He said many United States scholars attached great importance to the development of China's armed forces.
"They are not afraid of our modernization but scared that our forces are armed with Maoism," he said.
Mao Xinyu named Napoleon Bonaparte as one of his favorite military strategists besides his grandfather.
He said Napoleon was not only a military strategist but also an outstanding statesman as he destroyed France's feudalism and his effects were still felt today with achievements including the Napoleonic Code.
Mao said he would be promoted to the rank of major general in July and attributed the promotion partly to people's love of his grandfather.
Born in 1970, Mao will become the youngest major general nationwide.
He expressed concern over education, migrant workers' conditions and health care and highly priced education for the children of migrant workers in the southern cities of Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
He also spoke openly about matters of the heart, saying he fell in love with his wife at first sight. "Our life is happy," he said.
He stressed the importance of their two children and said most of his spare time was spent at home with them.
"I tell them fairy tales and stories and sometimes teach them writing and drawing ... quite an enjoyable life on the whole," he said.
