According to Wikipedia everyone in China has compulsory military service, too.

Makes the revelation that "some people working at Huawei have links to Chinese military" just so shocking. Trump's totally right we should all buy USA tech and not use Huawei for 5G. /s

When's the list for other countries being published?

If you're going to write that, then also post https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conscription_in_China because most Chinese people don't seem to serve in the military. It's not like South Korea where young men famously dread the time they have to go to the military.

Indeed. I was doing some research a while back on which countries do and don't have conscription and it's a surprisingly hard line to draw. A lot of countries have it in name, but don't in practice, and the line between having and not having conscription is surprisingly blurry.

Actually, a lot Chinese family consider military service as some kind of 'education' for their kids, especially in rural area. At least in the area I come from, you have to bribe someone to get the quota to serve in the military.
