Xinjiang provides 15 years free education from kindergarten to high school, schools also provide free school meals and dairy, school kids need more nourishment to grow well, so schools also have snack breaks and students can eat some snacks (mostly bread, eggs and milk) provided by the government.

Those are ethnic Tajik teens enjoy their break and snacks in school.

Where are the hijabs?

Not allowed in schools, all Chinese school students have to wear school uniform, that's China's student dress code. No heavy makeup, no smoking.

Shame

Shame

OK, different countries follow different laws, we don't impose you to do the same in your country.

Most East Asian countries and regions follow the similar school dress code, in Japan, North and South Korea, Taiwan they also wear school uniforms, no so much in western countries like US and Europe.

You can say East Asian countries are a shame in doing so, but that's our thing, maybe some part of your codes are not agreeable in other peoples eyes, but we don't call it a shame.

And also, hijab was never part of Uighur culture and costumes, it's a new thing coming from the middle east in recent decades.

This photo was taken in a school in Xinjiang in1943, before PRC time, do you see any students wear hijabs?

Old Uighur photos in late Qing dynasty , late 19th and early 20th century.

After Qing dynasty's fall and before 1949, Xinjiang was under the rule of the Republic of China

Tajik ethnic minorities has more link to Persian. They are very loyal to PRC.

So they should be.
All Muslims should live as loyal, peaceful, productive citizens of any country they happen to be citizens of.
In return, they should be allowed to practice their religion in peace.

Footage of transformation of a Tajik village teacher and his family from 1990's in Xinjiang Pamir

Rare footage shows the transformation of a Tajik village teacher and his family from 1990's to the present in Xinjiang Pamir plateau in China. He was the only teacher who had to cross rivers and climb mountains to get to his students to teach those village kids some basic knowledge, his hardwork was filmed by Chinese TV in 1990's.

Now , he became a grandpa and the region and life here had changed beyond immaginition, his small village hidden in the middle of Pamir mountains now has Kingdergartens so his granddaughter can be taken good care and taught well by the government, and his grandson goes to the county to get better education.

After finishing primary school, his grandson will go to study in Shenzhen-Tashkurgan middle school, a brand new over 20 million USD$ middle school built by Shenzhen city in Xinjiang ( China has a policy that developed regions being paired up with underdeveloped regions and development goals are set by the central government, developed regions must fulfill those goals in underdeveloped regions by timelines they negotiated with the central government)


He just witnessed the miraculous change of the region and his family's life right in front of his eyes over the past 30 years.

So they should be.
All Muslims should live as loyal, peaceful, productive citizens of any country they happen to be citizens of.
In return, they should be allowed to practice their religion in peace.

Like Hui Muslims and Tajiks, they are very patriotic and never want to separate from China, never go for terrorism.
