No beating around the bush, are you denying these? yes or no?

"China provides people in Xinjiang 15 years free education, free meals, free school break snacks including milk, egges and fruits, free school accommodation. kids under 6 years old is provided with free daily milk.

The government invested tens of billions to provide safe drinking water and stable electricity to every household in Xinjiang, for poor people in Xinjiang China provides free government houses with basic appliance and furniture, cash subsidy, free healthcare."

"The report details how this massive system of relocation and forced labor has been built up under the guise of an aid program known as “Xinjiang Aid.” What appears superficially as a targeted aid program for the poor and undereducated people in the province is a relocation and reeducation program meant to destroy their culture and religious practices. Companies all over China have been encouraged to provide “industrial Xianjing aid” by building factories in the province to absorb what China terms “surplus labor capacity” or to hire Uighurs for other tasks in factories across the rest of China."

"The paper, by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, doesn’t use the term “slavery,” preferring to rely instead on the euphemism of “forced labor.” Here’s how the situation is described (Uighur and Uyghur are two different ways of spelling the same word):

It is extremely difficult for Uyghurs to refuse or escape these work assignments, which are enmeshed with the apparatus of detention and political indoctrination both inside and outside of Xinjiang. In addition to constant surveillance, the threat of arbitrary detention hangs over minority citizens who refuse their government-sponsored work assignments. Most strikingly, local governments and private brokers are paid a price per head by the Xinjiang provincial government to organise the labour assignments…

The Uyghur workers, unlike their Han counterparts, are reportedly unable to go home for holidays… Uyghur workers are often transported across China in special segregated trains… Multiple sources suggest that in factories across China, many Uyghur workers lead a harsh, segregated life under so-called ‘military-style management’. Outside work hours, they attend factory-organised Mandarin language classes, participate in ‘patriotic education’, and are prevented from practising their religion. Every 50 Uyghur workers are assigned one government minder and are monitored by dedicated security personnel. They have little freedom of movement and live in carefully guarded dormitories, isolated from their families and children back in Xinjiang. There is also evidence that, at least in some factories, they are paid less than their Han counterparts.

There’s a common perception that the difference between slaves and free individuals is that the latter is paid for their work, but the truth is more complex. This article from the Organization of American Historians is a deep dive into the history of slaves earning wages in the South. In some cases, slaveowners found it advantageous to allow slaves to earn a certain amount of money and to spend it on improving their own lives or the lives of their families. The same is undoubtedly true in China today.

If you can’t refuse a work assignment, can’t go home to see your family, can’t practice your religion, are forced to live by a schedule in which virtually every minute of your life is regimented for you, are kept under constant or near-constant surveillance and subject to the whims of headhunters who earn a bounty for delivering you to a job, and didn’t get any choice in the matter, I’d argue you’re effectively a slave. In some cases, workers’ families are also under simultaneous surveillance back at home, which provides an extra incentive for the slaves “prisoners with jobs” to behave themselves."

This is what he calls "free education" and "free health care"

Beijingwalker's propaganda is boring af and it's not working on us foreigners.

LOl, why they are so happy while China is selling their organs?




We provides people in Xinjiang 15 years free education, free meals, free school break snacks including milk, egges and fruits, free school accommodation. kids under 6 years old is provided with free daily milk.

The government invested tens of billions to provide safe drinking water and stable electricity to every household in Xinjiang, for poor people in Xinjiang China provides free government houses with basic appliance and furniture, cash subsidy, free healthcare.

What do you provide for your people? You Indians don't even have access to basic tap water even in your capital city, your kids go to school under bridge in your capital city, how pathetic...

You can't prove anything by posting propaganda video of few paid guys.

Two Uighur high school besties live stream their lives in Xinjiang
One girl studies in Beijing and many of her classmates asked her about Xinjiang, she found it's hard to describe Xinjiang in words and came up with the idea of live streaming Xinjiang's daily life so that people can know her hometown better. With this idea she reached out to one of her besties in Urumqi and her friend also believed that's a very good idea so they started this live streaming this July.

They didn't expect much at first with just the simple goal of promoting Xinjiang and letting more people know their hometown better, yet their streaming was quickly getting popular and after just a couple of months they got 200000 followers and their videos had been played almost 5 million times on Chinese social media by September.

古丽·阿布都许库

  “安妮古丽”是近日在网络上火爆的头条号,如今已有近20万粉丝,发布的30余个短视频总播放量超过460万次,引来众多网友的关注。翻看“安妮古丽”的头条号,记者发现,超过15万次播放量的视频有9个,其中,《新疆美女路边卖新疆蟠桃,10块钱可以买一筐?真的是便宜呀!》、《新疆美女带你去新疆农场,农场里果香四溢,这些水果你都见过吗?》、《新疆葡萄太好吃?小美女摘了一大筐还不够,看完我都想吃了!》三条视频播放量都将近30万次,视频内容让网友大呼“新疆太美了”。

1536159489589d8cff4f27f

视频中,随着欢快的新疆音乐,美食、美景一一出镜,有着西王母传说的天山天池、吐鲁番的葡萄园、哈萨克族特色村庄、万亩蟠桃园、最美独库公路、达坂城区西沟乡雪菊采摘基地、那拉提花海……这些标志性的新疆美景再加上新疆大盘鸡、新疆大饼、烤肉等美食燃爆网络,不少网友留言:“口水出来了,要去新疆吃羊肉串!”“哎呦,不错哦!快来新疆带你嗨!”“音乐好听,我都连听了好几遍了!”“好惊艳,安妮唱歌好听,古丽跳舞好看,两个新疆小姐姐好美!”

  “安妮古丽”头条号的主播是两个新疆姑娘,头条号以直播和短视频的形式将大美新疆的美食、美景、民俗风情等推荐给外地网友,提起“安妮古丽”,安妮和古丽说:“很荣幸能获得网友的认可,也很开心能推荐自己的家乡。”

  闺蜜携手成直播红人

  安妮名叫安妮·孜热,是新疆艺术学院附属中学的一名高三艺考生,今年18岁。提起“安妮古丽”的创建,她说是源于一次偶然,“我高中是在内地上学的,身边有来自广东、江苏、河南等全国各地的同学和朋友,他们都不了解新疆,经常问我新疆是什么样的?每次都解释不清,我就把自己在家乡拍的视频和照片给他们看,效果很好,因为我有做直播的经验,我就想为什么不干脆围绕新疆的美食、美景和生活做直播呢,既能把家乡推介出去,还能锻炼自己在镜头前的经验,多好呀。”安妮说,有了这个想法,她找到了自己的好朋友、就读于乌市第二十三中学高三的艺考生古丽·阿布都许库,两人一拍即合,打算在暑假期间推出系列直播和头条号“安妮古丽”。

  “我叫安妮,她叫古丽,我们就干脆把头条号名称定为安妮古丽,好听又好记,还有新疆色彩。”古丽说,虽然两人都是艺考生,学过表演,但她却是第一次出镜直播,“我其实挺紧张的,不知道怎么直播,我俩还特地买了《新疆十万个为什么》这本书,它像是一本导游书,我们每到一个地方做直播录视频时,都会提前翻翻。”

  7月12日,“安妮古丽”头条号正式发布了第一条短视频《新疆美女带你逛乌鲁木齐特色大巴扎,原来天山雪莲这里就能买到!》,不到4分钟的视频获得了18.6万次的播放量,8000多条评论,这让安妮和古丽兴奋极了,“我们都没想到能吸引这么多网友看,更有信心了。”随后,在不到两个月的时间内,安妮和古丽陆续发布了30多条视频和直播,古丽说:“最高的一次是在霍尔果斯做的直播,播放量超过100万次。”

  要继续推介大美新疆

  生活中的安妮活泼开朗,古丽腼腆可爱,两人在镜头前也各有特色,互相补充,“我话多爱唱歌,古丽比较细心会跳舞,每次直播,我们就一个唱歌,一个跳舞,配合默契。”安妮说,虽然“安妮古丽”一直都深受网友喜爱,但她们也并不是一帆风顺。“我记得有一次我们去萨尔达坂乡一个小村子,那里很美,四面环山,冰山达坂天高云淡,泉水清冽可口,山林、小河、绿草、牦牛、羊群、马儿和毡房勾画出一副美丽的游牧山水图。”安妮说,“那天,我们中午2点多吃过饭,打算去山上做直播,结果我举着自拍杆和摄影师爬山爬到一半,开始下暴雨,因为怕山路湿滑,我们不敢下山,一直到天黑雨停了才下山,特别惊险。”

  而为了丰富直播和视频内容,古丽还请来了自己的家人助阵,“我爷爷会弹都塔尔、手鼓、热瓦普等民族乐器,我在直播讲到新疆乐器时,就直接把老人家请到镜头前,给网友们现场展示,效果特别好,网友都羡慕我有一个这么厉害的爷爷。”古丽笑着说。

  除了新疆的美景美食,安妮和古丽的颜值也深受网友称赞。“都说新疆遍地是古力娜扎和迪丽热巴,看了安妮和古丽,我信了。”“安妮和古丽两位小姐姐的衣服太美了,在哪买的啊?”“新疆美女真多,安妮英气爽朗,古丽甜美可爱,各有特色。”面对网友的称赞,古丽有些害羞:“其实我们就是穿自己平时的衣服出镜,比如艾德莱斯绸的裙子等带有新疆特色的服饰,去那拉提花海时,我就会特意穿上符合当地特色的花裙子,视频效果很棒。”

  因为出色的直播,安妮也常常收到内地同学和朋友的鼓励,“有一次我直播的内容里有美味可口的切糕,北京的同学看到了,给我发微信非要我带点给她,说是被我的直播吸引到了,哈哈。”而最新一期的直播中,安妮因为到北京上课,无法继续出镜,但她仍然记挂着“安妮古丽”。“这是我和古丽的心血,现在古丽一个人在支撑,我特别盼望这边的集训结束后,趁休息日赶回新疆,继续给大家推荐新疆的美食美景。”

So you want to hide sins of china by posting a single video? Let international observers enter into the camps where Uighurs are kept as a Slave in reeducation camp and let there interview be published. Then only world will know the real picture of what is happening with uighurs. By putting 1 million into reeducation camp or concentration camp and posting one video of one girl being cheerful will wash away your sins?Actually China is the dictatorial and most inhuman uncivilized Nation on the earth today doing all sort of human right violation including the selling of organs of of their own citizen for money. The list of sins of China is so long that it will need an ocean of ink to write there atrocities
 
.
Western media only wants the world to know China's claims in SCS, but they don't want anyone to know that in reality China controls the least number of islands comparing to all other claimants.

And the world also doesn't know that PRC's claim is exactly the same as ORC (Taiwan)'s, and Taiwan occupies the biggest island in SCS, the Taiping island, argubly the only island in SCS worth fighting for.

So you want to hide sins of china by posting a single video?
There are tons of similar videos, way more than China bashing propaganda videos, Uighur post so many videos on Tik Tok, weibo, weixi, youtube....

By putting 1 million into reeducation camp or concentration camp

Can you explain this simple logic question?

Some media say 2 million, some say 3 million, they can't even make up their mind on a number.

And how can Xinjiang become so developed and prosperous if a big percentage of their population are being locked away? how about the logistics? it's a logistically disaster to feed and support 1 million people.
Most rich countries can not even support 1 million armed forces.

How about the house facilities to hold those 1-3 million people? Xinjiang has only one city with urban population over 1 million, Urumqi, we didn't hear any news that Urumqi is being vacated for concentration camps, so where they put this supposed 1-3 million?

Uighur's whole population is around 10 million, 3 million basically mean every single Uighur adult except for the childen and the very old, you should not be able to see any Uighurs walking around in Xinjiang by this claim, but how come we see crowded streets full of Uighurs?
 
.
These amateurish propaganda videos by paid actors should ring a bell for anyone with more than half a brain.

The day you see social media videos of Muslims popping up on facebook, twitter, instagram etc saying:

"Hello, I am a Muslim, and I live in Europe, the Europeans DID NOT try to kill me and DID NOT EVER put me and my family in concentration camps, the Europeans are very nice to me and my family, they give us Halal food. Before, we were brainwashed, but now under the guidance of Europeans, we ARE NOT SLAVES, we are free and happy"

Know something is very wrong in Europe, the fact that China has to pay these actors to make these foolish videos really tells what is really going on behind closed doors.

If you can’t refuse a work assignment, can’t go home to see your family, can’t practice your religion, are forced to live by a schedule in which virtually every minute of your life is regimented for you, are kept under constant or near-constant surveillance and subject to the whims of headhunters who earn a bounty for delivering you to a job, and didn’t get any choice in the matter, I’d argue you’re effectively a slave. In some cases, workers’ families are also under simultaneous surveillance back at home, which provides an extra incentive for the slaves “prisoners with jobs” to behave themselves."
