"China military bases threatened by luxury villas"

http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/07/02/us-china-military-idUSKBN0F707620140702 Saw this earlier, and thought it quite odd. It also reminded me of the apartments next to the Cathal Brugha Barracks. Now, I'm assuming with China, they'd prefer to keep their cards close to their chest, but I'm wondering does this happen…

(Reuters) - The security of Chinese military bases is being threatened by illegally built high-rise buildings, and in one case villas built inside a base, and fake tourists seeking access to sensitive sites to spy, state media said on Wednesday.

Saw this earlier, and thought it quite odd. It also reminded me of the apartments next to the Cathal Brugha Barracks.

Now, I'm assuming with China, they'd prefer to keep their cards close to their chest, but I'm wondering does this happen often, regarding high-rise villas being built near military installiations around the globe?
