"Leadership" means that a relationship of administrative subordination exists and subordinate units must obey the orders of superior units; "guidance" refers to coordination of operations among parallel units or units without a superior-subordinate relationship that should be respected by all units involved.

It should be noted that despite all this, important decisions are never made by an individual but are made only after group discussion, indicating that all members share the responsibility. See Hamrin and Zhao, Decision-Making in Deng's China, xlvi; a mainland Chinese scholar also stated Beijing's verbal attacks and military intimidation moves against Taiwan in 1996 as an example, pointing out that the CCPCC had asked Politburo members to share responsibility by giving their opinions in written form.

Leading groups under the CCPCC are task forces composed of Party, government, and military decisionmakers. These groups' decisions depend on the issue, the power and work style of its leaders, and the circumstances. See Hamrin and Zhao, Decision-Making in Deng's China, xxxiv. The six known CLGTA members include Head Jiang Zemin (CCP general secretary and state president): Deputy Head Qian Qichen (foreign minister and vice-premier); Wang Zhaoguo (United Front Work Department head, ex-director of the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, and ex-director of the Central Office for Taiwan Affairs); Jia Chunwang (minister of state security); Xiong Guangkai (deputy chief of general staff of the PLA); and Wang Daohan (chairman of the ARATS and former mayor of Shanghai). Wang Zhaoguo is concurrently secretary-general of the group. In 1997, Chen Yunlin, originally deputy director of the Taiwan Affairs Office (TAO) of the State Council, was promoted to director of the same office. It is still unclear whether he will take over Wang Zhaoguo's position, but it appears certain that the group has decided to abolish the post of secretary-general.

Relatively speaking, the State Council is mainly responsible for administrative affairs while the CCPCC Secretariat, parallel in status to the State Council, is the principal organ in charge of political affairs.

According to an article published in Hong Kong, there is also a Taiwan Affairs Office under the CMC. However, in interviews, mainland Chinese scholars and military officials denied the existence of such a unit. See Luo Bing, "Inside Information on Mainland China's Southeast War Zone," Cheng Ming (Contending) (Hong Kong), 1996, no. 4:10.

See Shambaugh, "China's National Security Research Bureaucracy," 285-86. Judging by mainland China's recent development trends, the author believes that in general, the influence of civilian organizations has gradually increased but the military still has the upper hand over issues involving Taiwan.

Jiang's "eight points" proposal was the result of more than a year of staff operations. According to Li Jiaquan, former deputy director of the Institute of Taiwan Studies of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Beijing has already planned for the drafting of a Taiwan Basic Law, but considers the time not yet ripe for unveiling such a plan. See Lianhe bao, October 19, 1996, 9.
