BEIJING, May 29 (Xinhua) -- The Central Military Commission (CMC) has released a circular urging troops to carefully study CMC Chairman Xi Jinping's remarks on deepening national defense and military reform.

The remarks, selected from speeches on military issues made by Xi between November 2012 and November 2015, were compiled into a book by the group leading military reform under the CMC.

The careful study and use of the book will improve support for the reform campaign, so troops at all levels must undertake this as a political task, said the circular.
