The term 'Chinese fire drill' has been used to describe incomprehensibility and confusion. It is documented that this term was also used in both the Vietnam War and the Korean War by US Marine Corps and Americans in expressions such as ‘screwed up as a Chinese fire drill’.
(AP Photo/Ng Han Guan, File) TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — China is holding live-fire drills off the coast of its southern Fujian province facing Taiwan, just a week after a massive air-and-sea drill it described as punishment for Taiwan’s president rejecting Beijing’s claims of sovereignty.
The live-fire drills were being held near the Pingtan islands, according to a notice from the Maritime Safety Administration. It warned ships to avoid the area. It did not offer additional details. Taiwan’s Defense Ministry said China’s drills were part of an annual exercise and it was tracking them.
