That's wrong , many Americans believe that Chinese word 危机(crisis)means danger 危, and opportunity 机, but we Chinese never think that way and never separate a word by individual characters, crisis is crisis ,no other meanings, only foreigners who just started learning China can make that mistake.
新疆 = Xinjiang
新 means new
疆 means boundry/border
I know that there are many meanings for "Xin" and "Jiang" BUT after the Official name "Xinjiang 新疆" it literally means new border/boundry.
