            @phoenixpan: Ozbargainers can handle the truth, so let’s hear it already

            • @MuddyClear: +1 I'm ready for this mysterious truth people keep throwing around.

            • +4

              @MuddyClear: The Chinese government never revealed enough truth. I think. But I tried to collect some during the years.

              There was a terrorist attack in Xinjiang back in 2009. In the beginning, some Uyghurs terrorists, funded by foreign terrorists and "NGOs", started to kill Hans (the majority of the Chinese population) on the street, then the victims' families start to revenge. Many cities were in blood. The official number of deaths is like hundreds, but it was in fact at least thousands, some locals thought tens of thousands. The real number is probably god knows. Anyway, there was a really bad terrorist attack.

              Then the army went into the cities and guard the civilians. The government has also cut the internet of the entire province for a year. So not much information is out. They do set up camps there. They do keep many Uyghurs in the camps, but not by the ridiculous amount of millions. My Uighur friends think probably tens of thousands of people, but again, no official number. The camps are mainly for those who engaged in terrorist attacks and their family members who were affected by terrorist mentality (e.g. if you become a suicide bomb, you'll go to heaven with seven virgins). Some innocent people were forced to kill, but that doesn't justify the fact that they have committed crimes, and it is hard to identify those who were forces and the terrorists. Basically, the camps are prisons, as well as "education centers" to de-brainwash the terrorist mentality. Instead of getting killed, the terrorists are educated and eventually released. I don't know how exactly it works, and I am not denying bad things could happen there, but I think that's a better fate than those in Guantanamo.

              From my friend who went back home in Xinjiang back in 2018, most of the camps are empty now, only several are still running.

              By the way, prisoners in China are often required to work (in a reasonable load, 8 hours a day) as a way to learn new skills. They don't watch TV every day and cost taxpayers $1,000 a day. Also, the amount of prisoner labor is nothing comparing with China's common labor force and no private business could possibly utilize prison labor. So it's not possible you would buy something made by prisoners. I personally think this is acceptable. But you could consider them slaves if you believe so.

              Putting people in the camp is against mainstream western values, but at the end of the day, it's all about media. Think about Guantanamo Bay detention camp and the recent Aussie soldiers' event in Afghanistan. The media only covers it for a moment then shifts the focus away. It is normal, no one likes to speak ill of itself. Especially as a country.

              I personally strongly disagree with the Chinese government for keeping the information a secret to protect its image. It also gives chance for others to create rumors. The official number of death, the details of the camps, are not really disclosed in a very honest way. The same for some other historical events.

              The government should make strong, clear, and honest statements, but sadly, in many cases, they are considered unclear or dishonest, partially due to cultural differences. As time goes by, the public in the western world will not trust a single word from the Chinese official. I once watched a TV show of an Australian TV show interviewing a high-rank Chinese official, and when it comes to the topic of Uyghur camp, he said "No, there were absolutely no camps". That was so stupid and I was so disappointed. In Chinese, he could explain that "Camps are not what they are", but that doesn't work here, people will just think that he's lying. These kinds of things are destroying China's credibility, and I feel sad about it. Writing something here and there seem all that I can do to try to mitigate the misunderstanding.

              P.S. I typed it with the hope to clarify things, please at least don't address me as CCP spy or 50 cents army :)

                @phoenixpan: Thanks Phoenixpan, great write up I appreciate the time it would have taken and it was a very interesting read.

                Governments seem to love 'highlighting' the foreign influence into domestic terrorism, though I note you said funding (as opposed to motivating or influenced) so I can buy it.

                The problem with prison labour (yes I consider it forced) is that it is a perverse incentive. Much like the organ donor scheme that I understand China used to have from dead prisoners. If someone benefits, it motivates things like calling someone a prisoner who would not otherwise have been so. Especially when there are production quota. It might be something like someone was caught stealing bread, and usually get a warning, but this time (especially if an ethnicity that people look the other way on) its into prison and to work you go. It also encourages corruption - "i'll give you $1000 if your prisoners work in my factory for free". Which in turn encourages the incentive to imprison.

                I also disagree that attention has shifted about Aussie soldiers in Afghanistan. It has been in newspapers for quite a while, that there were potential war crimes and an inquiry was under way. It became very loud when the inquiry made its findings public and that is why it is now more in the media than previously. I don't doubt many Aussies find it hard to swallow that we have such people who we call 'heroes' but who turn out to be monsters, but the media has not represented it otherwise. I think our politicians can be criticized for being too scared to call the guy a Monster though, for fear of losing sensitive voters. But the media has done a good job of reporting it. The claims by China that we deny it are projecting. We dont deny it, we held a public inquiry into it! I think China are expert at denial and that is what can lead to crazy stories which exagerate.

                The West is worried about China. I sure am. It is a country that aggressively expands and smiles at you while doing it unless you say the wrong thing then they want to punish you.

                Chinese individuals however are our friends. It is when people become very nationalist (Australian, American, Chinese - it doesnt matter which) that they turn into absolute assholes. We saw what kind of fury Trump whipped out by exploiting nationalist insecurities in people and it is awful.

                Anyway! Thanks for the long explanation and I ended up typing too much as well. Peace!

                  @gakko: Thanks for your reply, it's very nice to read and it's always good to learn how rational people think from other backgrounds. That helps me understand the world better and hopefully enables me to make it a better place.

                  I hope we can get rid of covid and all the dramas soon…! Merry Christmas and happy new year :)

                @phoenixpan: CGTN (I know, funded by government) has produced a documentary with many previously undisclosed footages from major terror attacks, I wouldn't say it's completely made unbiased but the real footages wouldn't lie.

                I've got a link to that video here if you are interested to watch, a warning to everyone that it contains strong and raw violent scenes

                https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4cYE6E27_g&bpctr=1608616216

                you can get a taste of it if you FF to 23:20

                You can also find countless footages on youtube by searching xinjiang terrorist which were filmed by chinese and foreign journalist, some of them are quite intense and I was surprise youtube allowed it to be published…

                • @Mr Bear: Thanks for providing these treads!

                  I have actually seen some of those intense videos, one of them is…too much. But I cannot verify whether they are related to the attack, so I chose not to mention them. It's good to know the one from CGTN, I will surely have a look. They did are very decent documentary regarding covid, despite they skipped some events that may hurt the government's image, but that's expected…

    It is an energizer that helps to clear away toxic heat and promote saliva.

    Clears toxic heat? The upsized sugar water at 600ml promotes going to the toilet more likely. And promote saliva? That’s just nonsense. It’s called re-hydration.

          Stop using your computer / phone / pad / device and read some newspapers because most of the electrical components in those are made in China. You can search bargains on "The Trading Post" papers instead (assuming they don't use recycled paper imported from China).

  • Just out of curiosity. Every time when it comes to China, it's cheap and unreliable stuff. Yes, China has cheap and unreliable stuff, AND good stuff as well. But it's your choice to pick the cheap ones. This is self-selection. This is the market mechanism. It's impossible to be cheap and good at the same time… BTW, sharpen your mind so it couldn't be washed…
