Taiwan military scholars said that the number of recruits of the Taiwan military next year will be sharply reduced, and the combat forces will be the most affected.
Comprehensive Wind Media and Zhongshi News reported that the Researcher of the China Strategic Foreign Prospective Association revealed on Monday (September 2) that according to the budget of the Ministry of National Defense, the budget of the volunteer soldiers in 2025 was only the only volume of the soldiers of the soldiers soldiers onlyThe remaining 160,749 people, 166,235 budgets in 2024, decreased by 5,486, and evaporated the volunteer manpower of 11 joint battalions in the same year.
Jiezhong said that in the reduction of the amount of the staff, most of the grassroots officers, superior soldiers, and first -class soldiers of the combat forces show that in recent years, the grass -roots manpower of the Taiwan Army combat forces will be lost rapidly.
Jiezhong said that it is worth noting that all of the budget officers who have decreased next year are all the members of the grass -roots troops.Among them, non -commissioned officers decreased by 1744, superior soldiers decreased by 4,553, first -class soldiers decreased by 1,278, and a total of 7,575 were reduced. The officers, the chiefs, and the second -class soldiers increased by 369, 922, and 798, respectively.This seems to show that many of the technical volunteer officers and soldiers would rather give up promotion and leave the troops.
Jie Zhong said that even more worrying is that among the 5,486 budgets that decreased next year, the proportion of combat forces seems to be much higher than other non -combat units.
