Rumor has it.

For whatever the reason, the PLAN does not like to place its imported warships under international spotlight and they seldom take part in foreign port calls. This is about to change -- rumor has it DDG 138 Taizhou (Russian Sovremenny class) might participate in the 7th PLAN task force to the Gulf of Aden.

After a three year pause, two more newly constructed Type022 FAC spotted in Guangxi. It might be too early to tell, but rumor has it the Type 022 Houbei construction program has been restarted.
