I traveled to Xinjiang to speak directly with Uyghurs and hear their stories firsthand. What I found challenges much of what we often hear in Western media. This is their side of the story.

  1. at least you should prepare a translate app dude!! here is not Europ.And Chinese is not speak English.I dont belive there is a POLICE watching you,show us!

  2. Some people can't wake up. They only believe in what they think and do not allow existence that is different from their own cognition. I rarely explain anything to these people now. Perhaps smoking marijuana or buying for zero yuan would be more practical for them.

  3. 在中国,最低等的是汉族。少数民族与汉族相比,享受的往往是超国民待遇!

  4. If you question about the status of Muslims in China, bear in mind China offers a huge amount of assistance to Palestine and often speaks out for them

  5. they don't care about chinese., they don't care about Muslims, however they care about Chinese Muslims. pure hypocrisy of west

  6. @The Absurdist 事实上,一个外国人在新疆或西藏地区旅游遭到警察监视是正常的,这是为了保护您的安全,因为新疆曾经遭到来自中东的恐怖分子袭击。如果一个外国人因为一次恐怖袭击而身亡,这就会变成一个国际问题。虽然现在的新疆或西藏地区很安全,但警察仍然会对外国人跟踪保护。因此,请您理解中国警察的行为。

  7. What's sad is that some western government is still condemning xinjiang cotton using human rights excuses to this day. What they are really trying to do is economically suppress xinjiang and china through trade hoping China will destablize within.

  8. My dad IS a Uyghur who lived in Xinjiang for most of his life. Even he does not report any of the events that western media say China did. I get very sad and angry when I see people spread these false propaganda about China on the internet because they are just victims of the lies western media spread about other countries. We need to work together to make the world a better place instead of spreading lies about other countries and dragging the reputation of other countries down.

  9. Besides the Han language (Chinese characters) appearing on the front of yuan note, Mandarin pinyin, Mongolian, Tibetan, Uyghur, and Zhuang languages.
