China implies domestic focus for new security council BEIJING Wed Nov 13, 2013 6:30am EST (Reuters) - The Chinese government implied on Wednesday that a new state security committee would have a domestic focus, saying its establishment should strike fear into the heart of extremists, separatists and others who wish to harm the country. Details of how the committee will work and when exactly it will begin operations were left unclear in a government communique issued on Tuesday at the end of a key meeting of the ruling Communist Party to map out political and economic reforms. The aim of Chinas decision to set up a state security committee is to perfect the countrys security system and strategy, to ensure the countrys safety. I have no other information to provide you apart from this, Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang told a news briefing on Wednesday. reuters/article/2013/11/13/us-china-reform-security-idUSBRE9AC0AP20131113
