British-Australian Jerry Grey, who has traveled to Xinjiang five times and bicycled across several provinces of China, shares his journey and observations of Xinjiang with CGTN
China’s Uighur terrorist problem

ReplyDeleteYeah just Chinese propaganda, like everything Kaivey posts on China. Of course the terrorism is very real, but it is just the desperate response of some elements of a tortured people to Government / Han oppression.
ReplyDeletewomen could wear what they wanted. No longer.

Marian are you saying that the cycling ex police is making it up?
ReplyDeleteS400 -- at least in part
ReplyDeleteWhich part is he making up?
ReplyDeleteNone of it. Xenophobia is disturbing, which seems to be built in, and not even the left is exempt.
DeleteIt's unlikely China will ever allow autonomy for its provinces. Destroyed by Japan for hundreds of years, and then Britain, and then Britain and America, it knows perfectly well the US would surround it with hundreds of military bases if it could.
The odds of China allowing a province autonomy is about as likely as Turkey allowing its Kurdish majority region autonomy.
