Here is a list of all personnel (including officers, firefighters and medical staff) of the Chinese People's Armed Police killed in the line of duty, including the defunct Ministry of Public Security Active Service Forces (Guard Corps, China Fire Services and Border Defense Corps) who were PAP personnel.
This is not a list of "all" such personnel. The page itself is marked incomplete, and it omits at least one well-documented PAP line-of-duty death: PAP Jiangmen detachment deputy political commissar Shao Rongyan, who died during flood-rescue operations in 1999.
Full reasoning
The claim says this page lists all People's Armed Police personnel killed in the line of duty. But the page itself also carries an explicit maintenance note stating "This list is incomplete", which directly contradicts the word "all".
There is also a concrete omission. Official and government-backed sources document 邵荣雁 (Shao Rongyan), then deputy political commissar of the PAP Jiangmen detachment, who died on 1999-08-23 while leading flood-rescue operations in Jiangmen and trying to save a soldier who had fallen into the water. A Jiangmen municipal government article states that he sacrificed his life in that rescue, and notes that on 2000-06-26 the State Council and Central Military Commission posthumously awarded him the honorary title “舍己救人好干部”. The same article also says the PAP later awarded him the “中国武警忠诚卫士” medal.
Shao Rongyan does not appear anywhere in the page text provided here, so the page cannot accurately describe itself as a list of all PAP personnel killed in the line of duty. At minimum, it is an incomplete list with documented omissions.

The article says that on 1999年8月23日, during flood-rescue operations in Jiangmen, 邵荣雁 '为抢救落水战士,献出了宝贵生命', and that on 2000年6月26日 the 国务院、中央军委 posthumously awarded him '舍己救人好干部'.
Corporal Lin Bin
The surname is mistransliterated. Chinese sources identify this soldier as 李彬, which is romanized as Li Bin, not Lin Bin.
Full reasoning
This entry's English name is inconsistent with both the Chinese text on the page and external sources.
In the row itself, the Chinese name is given as 李彬. The standard pinyin romanization of 李 is Li, not Lin. A government-linked report about the same Nyingchi forest-fire martyr also identifies him as 李彬, describing him as a soldier of the PAP Nyingchi forestry unit who later died from severe injuries sustained during firefighting.
So the English rendering "Lin Bin" is a transliteration error; it should be Li Bin.

The row reads: "Corporal Lin Bin" with the Chinese name immediately beside it as "李彬".

The report says: "四川小伙李彬2008年在日记里写下..." and identifies him as a soldier of the PAP Nyingchi forestry unit who was fatally injured while fighting a forest fire.
