Government officials have their duties. They need function well when they are in those positions.
It is not only about whether you hurt anyone, but also whether you have the ability to provide the services your role need to when needed.
The same applies to students. Any students' behaviors would not be tolerated if those cause distractions for other students or teachers.
However, our schools indeed pay attention to those food requirements for certain religions though. For example, muslim students have their own counter to go to, and there are special cooks who prepare their foods for them.
When you are in such settings, it is not only about you.
BTW, China's muslims are not just uighurs. We have several other minorities who are muslims as well. They have coped with the government regulations quite well so far.
China is too strict,,,how does fasting gonna hurt anyone ,,,although it is there internal matter,,,,these restrictions will further antagonize the uighurs...
but then your country your rules......
China has always been like that.
We have never tried to hide anything. Actually, we have been quite clear on our policies.
We indeed discourage religion spreading.
In China, When have you seen any preachers, mullahs or monks... speak publicly to 10,000 people or more to tell them how good their religions are???
Police will already shut you down before you even think about it.
