Английская Википедия:Chief superintendent (China)
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:This
Chief superintendent (Шаблон:Zh) is the highest police rank in the Chinese People's Police. The Premier of the State Council confers the rank on individuals appointed at the ministerial level. Unlike the rank of the same name in countries with a British police structure, which is typically given to leaders of divisions or regions, in China the rank is largely ceremonial, given to high political officials who have been appointed Minister of Public Security, Minister of State Security, or occasionally other senior national security-related positions.
The uniform shirt of a chief superintendent is white, as with other senior ranks of the People's Police, and the emblem on the shoulder boards is that of the National Emblem of the People's Republic of China surrounded by olive branches.
