Hong Kong Commercial Daily said China’s first aircraft carrier will start sea trials on Jul. 1. That day happens to be the 90th anniversary of the Communist Party of China.
However, the newspaper added that the ship will not be officially launched until October next year.
Gen. Guo Boxiong, Vice Chairman of the Central Military Commission, is said to have inspected the ship and workers are rushing to meet the deadline.
