Any source? just curious
car has shandong zaozhuang(山东枣庄) written on it; zaozhuang is a city, shandong is a province
color seems to be PLA/PAP color but AFAIK PLA doesn't use this sort of thing

The photo is by the Wall Street Journal, Asia in Pictures from 2012. There're more vehicles in this livery, probably belong to some civil agency

yeah judging from markings should be civilian
PLA doesn't write that kind of stuff on the side
found this source: https://kan.china.com/article/2301049.html
