Batches of 50 to 100 Uighur workers are being advertised on the Chinese internet

Oh, but I do. I have to self-censor all the time, both online and irl. People like you have a very unsophisticated understanding of censorship based on a caricature of China's information management systems. Real censorship doesn't come from the government at all - it's all pervasive; it's a social consensus.

The censorship that happens on this site is an extension of the social and cultural mores of Pakistan. Similarly, if I ever publicly voiced my actual political opinions in Canada, I would be committing career and social suicide. What is this but the most stifling censorship?

To me, it called respect of others feelings .and if you voiced your real opinons you might be committing career and social suicide but you won't have to fear the state could lock you up . To me, freedom is not having to fear the state if I voiced my thoughts. When I was ten the militancy started in my homeland and i will never forget the fear people had of being grassed up to the police it has stayed with me the state having so much power. And you would hear banging on the doors early morning and men taken away i will say when my country has done wrong still does . To live like that forever no matter how developed not for me

1. Xinjiang is still more than 20 years ahead of Pakistan and india.

2. In PDF. India and Bangladesh members insult Pakistan every day! There's nothing you Pakistanis can do. It's the kindness and tolerance of Chinese that make you Pakistani people have such courage?!

3. Why do Pakistanis think that China will not sanction Pakistan?! Because CCP is too tolerant to Pakistan?!!

4. How is Baluchistan now?

5. Except for suicide bombers. Do you have any modern industries?

6. 70% literacy only makes you learn to read western news?

7. Why is US punishing you? Why did US bomb you? What have you done?

8. The CCP will be tolerant of Pakistan. But please don't think that China will have any tolerance towards Pakistan!

You really are some piece of work.
1- Xinjiang is ahead now, 20 years ago it wasn't times were different, don't talk about tomorrow, no one knows how it will be.

2- Keep your tolerance in China, it will not work anywhere else. No one needs your tolerance for courage.

3- China cannot sanction Pakistan it will shot itself in foot if it does. If you think China can lobby for it to happen. Sorry forgot you cannot lobby CCP.

4- Baluchistan is beautiful. With free independent Baloch who go around doing what they like of their free will.

5- Pakistan has, textile, sports good manufacture, and surgical equipment to name a few.

6- No sir we have no censorship or control freaks running the show we live in a free country I can read news from anywhere in the world without using VPN.

7- No one pushed me or us, this article and your response to that pushed me, I have already explained why, you just refuse to utilise your brain to understand it.

8- The CCP can be intolerant of Pakistan if they dare, you will start loosing friends soon. Good Luck with your talks with CCP. Sorry forgot again you cannot do that in China.

So you don't object to China's sanctions against Pakistan. OK. First, we discuss the Baluchistan issue.

You clearly have an issue with your engel translator. read what i wrote... better consult your supervisor in the corner.

[rent4country]

Lemme ask you when you were writing that response, did you actually think it would be a great clap back? LOL. You guys got to stop sounding like those martial arts movies where your mouth goes faster than the words being heard.

I am sure the Chinese members here will have the perfect excuse to cover this up as well....I will give the first one "Western Propaganda".



Uighur people from Xinjiang working in other parts of China are subject to "political" checks and work under strict "half-military" style management, according to new evidence discovered by Sky News.

The Xinjiang government runs an official "labour transfer programme", according to its 2019 Five Year Plan, "so as to provide more employment opportunities for the surplus rural labour force".

Workers are "transferred to employment" in other provinces of China.

On the Chinese internet, there are hundreds of ads for Uighur labour

A report from the Australian Strategic Policy Institute estimated that at least 80,000 Uighur workers were transferred out of Xinjiang between 2017 and 2019, although it said the actual figure was likely to be far higher.

Human rights groups have warned that such strict controls could amount to forced labour.

On Chinese websites, there are dozens of postings advertising Uighur labour, in batches of 50 to 100 workers.

Baidu, the company hosting the job postings, did not respond to a request for comment.

Those adverts suggest tight political and social controls. One states that the "security of workers will be guaranteed by the government".

One agent told us that workers from Xinjiang needed to be "examined politically" before they could be transferred.

The local government of the receiving province would also do a "political examination".

All workers would be accompanied by "supervisors", the agent said, and "under half-military management".

Another said that without local government approval, workers could not be arranged because "the ethnic minority issue is a severe problem".

A third said the salary of the "supervisors" was paid by the Personnel Bureau of the Xinjiang government.

Sky News visited seafood processing plants that had used Uighur labour
State media often celebrates the working conditions of Uighur workers in other parts of China.

One local news video describes 200 Uighur workers at a factory in Shandong, a coastal province in east China, saying: "Supported by all relevant government departments, the company develops well.

"They will continue creating a harmonious work environment for our Uighur compatriots."

The owner of the factory, a seafood processing plant, said that all the Uighur workers had returned home to Xinjiang because of the pandemic and that reports of forced labour was "nonsense".

He said that workers went there because they chose to, earned at least £300 per month, and had air conditioners in their on-site dormitories.

Those dormitories were monitored by CCTV in a front office which also contained riot control gear.

If workers wished to leave the factory, the owner told us, the company would take them in two buses.

Twelve police officers and Communist Party officials then arrived.

They questioned us for two hours, before ordering us to leave town.

At another seafood processing factory in the same province, which until recently had a UK subsidiary, according to Companies House filings, a manager waiting at the entrance said there were no Uighur workers, nor had there been in the several years he had worked there.

But an article on the company's own website, posted on 18 March 2020, shows Uighur workers arriving from Xinjiang.

Communist Party officials and police officers questioned the Sky News team for two hours and ordered us to leave town

The accompanying announcement says that their arrival will help alleviate poverty and the "integration of the national family".

The post has since been deleted.

Batches of 50 to 100 Uighur workers are being advertised on the Chinese internet

Beijing calls it "the lie of the century", but Chinese websites have adverts for Uighur labour, in batches of 50 to 100 people.

news.sky.com

I dont know why Pakistanis and Chinese start jump up and down over some fake news? If you ever read through that report, you will find the absurdity of the narration. Sky news ask the recruiter and which local Chinese recruiter especially government link will be foolish enough to reply to any call or even foreign inquiry with tone like this?

" One agent told us that workers from Xinjiang needed to be "examined politically" before they could be transferred. "

Please dont insult our intelligent with such report meant to stroke tension and racial hate. I needn't even need to go through other points which are too stupid to test our intelligent.

I am sure, many narration are added up by sky news themselves and selective omit journalist to suit their own propaganda of another Uighur genocide.

@waz can you ban this dumbass sinobot again please? Just read the topic.

I oppose ban. You understand people of other nations when you let them speak. If he is really Chinese, which I think he is, then you can see how some Chinese view your country.

 

[313ghazi]

Lemme ask you when you were writing that response, did you actually think it would be a great clap back? LOL. you just burned 10 points of your real iq for that response, now down to 60, what will you ever say next?

Winnie the Pooh is paying him per post. If he doesn't write this sh1t his family get sent to a camp.

I'm all for bans. Forums have rules, if you don't obey the rules you can **** off - as is the case with that turd.

I agree, let everyone know the true feelings. Unless this becomes personal leave them be, please its really entertaining.

 

[313ghazi]

@waz thanks - problem sorted.

 

[waz]

He's gone, banned him.

 

[313ghazi]

At least the rest of us now can discuss this for it's merits without the trolling.

IMO it could quite easily be spin by Sky News, although some of the stuff on the phone call was dodgy. Like why does anyone need a govt letter to work?

Another generalization. Most Chinese dont bother to come to this forum and not many Chinese speak English. Many has great view of Pakistanis. Any Pakistanis if acknowledge in China will be treated like guest. You can check out many experience of Pakistanis ever visited China.
