on. her northwest china what's called the scene jang autonomous region. in august 28th seen a united nations committee said it had received reports suggesting that new government policies were transforming the region into quote a massive internment camp that is shrouded in secrecy more than a 1000000 week is many of the muslims and other ethnic minorities have been rounded up there detained and forcibly indoctrinated all of us many of us will cry. when we alone. we decided to talk about it. just. tell the world. everyone. what happened what's been happening it's happening now.

australian wheat years have been detained while visiting china and their relatives in singeing are under constant surveillance and like other weak years have had their passports confiscated every single people rose his loss from one in their in their family. alone in the world of the. personal testimony satellite imagery and government documents point to what some analysts believe may be the largest imprisonment of a group of people on the basis of ethnicity since the 2nd world war. this is an act of cultural genocide of one of the worst human rights abuses of our time i'm quite used to uncovering dirty secrets of the chinese government but when i realized the magnitude and the impact the implications of what i found it was it was really something else. china's mass internment of its muslim

population is directly affecting astray and we got families this film examines the chinese government's campaign of cultural and religious repression in seeing jang and asks what can be done to challenge it. most members of the australian we get community i'm missing someone. everyone has a family member detained imprisoned or trapped in singeing. many have remained silent out of fear for their relatives in china but now in

a state of desperation they are starting to come forward and make their story know . my older brother younger brothers and 2 young sisters. taken by the chinese government masked police. heavily armed special forces police raided their home and taken them by car and they face and shackling them in front of the kids they took my father and brother. and they detained them to the internment camps as a father as a husband most important thing is your wife and your kids and that they're not with me.

that. saddam. left singeing to study in a stray 10 years ago and became in australian citizen in 2013. yes yes this is just. the end of. saddam has never met his son who is now 2 years old and. he is trapped in sin jang with his mother saddam's wife and the dealer.

if. all i worked is live a normal life like australia stay with my son stay with my wife go sawant. boy has it been so hard to bring my wife and my son here. there are around 3000 we get is in a straight they're muslim and speak a turkish language and many sort of asylum in australia to escape government persecution in sin jam. which. they're now free to practice their religion in their adopted home but in syria jang

the chinese government has effectively all out war is like. they. can't pray you can't fire. need to speak chinese in the school. the government come to. that ridiculous point where actually they controlling the why we look men not allowed to have it be it and a female not allowed have scuff even long dress. the government crackdown on the week has followed decades of ethnic and religious tension this was exacerbated by the migration of millions of han chinese the dominant ethnic group of mainland china into sin jack wiggers began to feel themselves being dispossessed of their land. dispossessed of their way of life. in july 2009 protests broke out. nearly 200

people were killed with reports that over a 1000 weaknesses were arrested. in response the beijing government launched what it called a strike hard campaign and we get areas to suppress dissent. would it began to do is really systematically step up its police presence as well it's party infrastructure john to begin to surveil your population. and so some of them struck back in really horrific ways. there was a suicide car bombing in tiananmen in beijing. there was this attack on a train station in maine that left you know over 20 innocent train travelers

massacre is quite brutally. that's really when the rhetoric of terrorism really took off as something you could use a label we girls as a group that there are potentially terrorists and so you know using any means necessary is justified. in 2016 saddam. went back to singeing to marry his girlfriend not deal. after their honeymoon in the united states and turkey. felt.

positive this she's pregnant and that and the 1st helpless moment for me. and there was actually i'm going to read to her the i'm going to have like i'm going to have baby like. lois and. saddam returned to australia in early 2017 for work while nat villa waited in singeing for her spouse visa to be approved. but then beijing suddenly launched its mass re-education campaign and xinjiang. suddenly she called me our government start taking people's passport. the. singeing effectively became a large open air prison with severe limitations on freedom of movement on weekends and other minorities as well as invasive surveillance of almost every aspect of

their daily lives. the 1st reports began to emerge of weak years being rounded up and detained in camps. in the community we heard stories of people's direct messages of their family members were taken there one was panicking there one was 20 find out whether they family members was safe or not. we start to hear everyone's family being detained like ordinary people average people have family members being detained and then i realized something is going on. we get is who visited muslim countries or had lived overseas seem to be among the 1st to suffer who are going to the turkey's old arabia or any muslim country they putting in the people to the jail or concentration camp. people started to leave disappearing communities were being emptied of adult men and women.

saddam wasn't able to go to singeing to be with in the deal or for the birth of their son. the chinese consulate in sydney refused him a visa i wasn't there when he. when he born. are you imagine how hard for. having a baby by herself i wasn't there next to her. so it was hard. soon after law to be was born saddam received shocking news. security forces had arrived at the deal as family home. other than the train to the work and then i got a message from my wife's friend saying oh your wife been taking. i just.

crying in the train you know like even the people in trying to ask me what's happening what's happening and i can tell them that the chinese government took her and i don't know where. that that you did. that. 2 weeks passed but then saddam heard that no deal had been released but she remains trapped in synching with look to be prevented from traveling and in constant fear of rearrest. she's scared she's always harping please let me out from here. he's getting all the old like every day person doesn't know he's there. in adelaide saddam's friend also received frightening news from singeing his wife

zainab had been picked up by the police. of i've been arrested by. chinese police they dressing under cover up i think there's more than i don't mind police officers. zainab spam only watched police put a black hood over her head and put her into a van she was 7 weeks pregnant. i can't leave her like that put to flight tickets very next day i left. so i spent 3 months time in orange and then i only can get the information she has been arrested because of the reason she did study in egypt. is a medina spent several weeks in the capital of singeing a room she looking for his wife before being contacted by the police they asked me

to come to. police station talk to me face to face and i when i went they gave me the piece of paper so i need to get out of the country in 24 hours. after mass flew back to australia the chinese authorities arrested his 50 year old mother. she is a high school class teacher she's been working for chinese government for 30 years . teka from the house fave police officer come to the house and unlock the door and then arrest her. in april 2019 received an e-mail from an official at the astray and department of foreign affairs in canberra. she told him that the chinese government had sentenced his wife to 7 years in jail for quote assembling

a crowd to disturb social order and then they said that my wife was assembling a call she can't even go shopping by herself and she's very scared. they arrest her like she didn't assembling a craft to disturb social order that's impossible. kill my heart. my wife my mom they're like so important for me it's my responsibility to protect them by protect. these a satellite images of suspected camps where we get so detained china initially denied these camps existed but research isn't academics around the world have identified them using internet map technology essentially looking for a large highly securitized facility where almost every aspect of. the movement

inside these areas is completely restrained looking for a wall surrounding the whole facility with watchtowers on the edges of it and specifically you're looking for internal fencing barbed wire 3 major high fencing. the scale of this mass internment program is enormous the chinese government refers to the camps as reeducation centers and researchers have now identified nearly $100.00 suspected facilities like these across in genk it's basically clear that a huge percentage of the middle age range especially aged between 18 and 45 years a very large percentage of them are in some form of internment or prison. research is like adrian zen's have also accessed chinese government documents online to identify the full scale of what the country is doing to its muslim ethnic

minorities. for example budget reports government reports work reports and also procurement bits construction bits that were also very detailed that said we need to reeducation camp built in this area and it needs to be this big and needs to have surrounding walls barbed wire towers surveillance equipment cameras and so on and so forth they were buying a police batons tasers. you know different instruments that could be used in torture like cattle prods. stun guns pepper spray all these sort of things that you would find in a prison setting. this video was filmed by human rights activists and shows the inside of one of the camps cells fitted with double line daws. keypad locks and cameras.

slogans on the wall praising chinese president xi jinping and in the so-called classrooms railings and why are separating the teachers from the students. the government's glossy videos claim that the week is a happy with their so-called reeducation. culture. course you are far more use of. course and the chinese government has reportedly described its new campaign as quote breaking the roots of extremists and so what they're doing when they say they

want to break the roots break the lineage is they want to eliminate the basic institutions the basic elements of weaker culture weaker society they're trying to transform the entire society. 37 year old melbourne plaster a high ruler my is one of 3 astray in citizens who've been jailed in singeing here he speaks out for the 1st time. it's been a bit hard to explain at that in my feeling at that time yeah no i've been happy like that before in my life. in august 2017 while travelling on his astray in passport high ruler was questioned and then detained at chengdu airport in sichuan province. when i go to that detention center. they are. put. chain

are our my uncle put our. hands on my hand so just a mish shocked because i don't know what's the reason why i should to this what does this to me. i rule or wasn't allowed to call the astray an embassy or his family. security forces put him onto a plane and flew him to singeing. he says he was brought here. to this detention center near a room cheap and put in a cell with around 40 other men yet there is no in law space to you just in a lie down probably and then turn around or something like that you can't do that if you just sleep in 2 hours after 2 hours we wake up and then you're standing in their way car you're going to slip something. classified as

a so-called potential terrorist high rule in my and a strain citizen was forced to undergo 6 hours of indoctrination every day praising the chinese communist party and president xi jinping. you have to watch the brainwashing program t.v. there is t.v. in the detention center in there in that room did that t.v. that people is talking about. the combat communist party's rules and this is good something like that. 2 weeks into his detention high ruler says he received a visit from an australian official who introduced himself as mark from the embassy in beijing he tried to ask the officials chinese officials this guy asked me. why you guys put this put him to the detention center and look him up about 2 weeks

more than 2 weeks what's the reason and then the chinese official says. still. to this question. a week later hi rula was released to be with his wife and stepson. but the or thora ordered him to leave singeing and banned him from visiting for 5 years. high ruelas wife was stopped from leaving with him. she just kept saying. don't blame me alone blame me alone take me it is you. i can't i can't live. that feeling as you know. breaking hard. i just left. you and i can turn around and see him see her again.

because. from the far right near the gate i can see. see aren't just a crime crime. join the global conversation half the bubble people get expand their brains maybe have a different view this is a dialogue women in cambodia are in fact selling they're here we don't know how much they're getting paid for it it's hard to track it's hard to treat everyone has a voice tell us what you think and your conversation could be a lot right here in this space we need to step away from gaming people are not necessarily game perfect this is a journey of progress and not perfection on al-jazeera. there's

a wave of sentiment around the world where people actually want accountability from the people who are running their countries and i think often people's voices are not heard because they're just not part of the mainstream news narrative. obviously we cover the big stories and report on the big events going on but we also tell the stories of people who generally don't have a voice i mean when i was a child my doubts were never be afraid to put your hand up not a question and i think that's what i'm sure really does the oscar question should people who should be accountable and also get people to give their view of what's going on. from the al-jazeera london to a path and try to get in conversation with the american states. and state unprompted uninterrupted all of these these divisions of the working class of working people they keep us from realizing our collective power money crop up homie homemade then if you obey them all through the 13 you do begin to work with them believe it has power over your laws do you be unscripted on how does their.

own. we need documentaries from around. 0. the. hello again i'm the star with the headlines on al-jazeera the united states has suffered the worst single day of the coronavirus pandemic with close to 1200 deaths on the state the total number of dead has now surpassed 6000 spain has recorded more than 900 new coven 1000 deaths for the 2nd day in a row the 932 fatalities are less than the number on thursday when spain announced its largest single day death toll. china's government is now warning people in the city of will have to remain vigilant and to stay indoors wherever possible because

of fears of a resurgence of factions it follows the imposition of a lockdown on 600000 chinese in neighboring henan province shamers or years and will harden says there are growing concerns over so-called silent carriers of the virus. he didn't there's really no you know my. i have been moving here and there today and yesterday and i can say that the precautionary measures are very strict and we can see sanitizes are being used everywhere on the streets of the city even in some open areas there are people who are taken body temperatures and no one is allowed to come into this area without a certain symbol used by the locals here in this area and others as well every area has its own symbol to allow you to come in and allow the authorities to follow your medical history at the same time i think the strict procedures are still here people can feel the fear the government is trying to ease the public's fear because there are concerns over asymptomatic cases people who have the virus but none of the symptoms are shown so the procedures i think are very strict and it will

continue for certain period of time to come in order to avoid any 2nd wave of covert 1000 and factions and who harm and china in general. well israel has now locked down a city dominated by ultra-orthodox jews off to a big spike in cases their health officials fear some 75000 of but i brock's residents are already infected residents have been criticized for flouting restrictions on movement and poland's parliament is preparing for a controversial vote on whether to hold presidents the elections in may entirely by postal ballots the ruling law and justice party says this will reduce health risks but the opposition says the vote is undemocratic because coronavirus restrictions will prevent them from campaigning. well those are the headlines and now it's back to tell the wild stay with us.

the chinese government has set up internment camps in the north western region of jang it calls them reeducation centers and it's using them to detain thousands of the weak ethnic group without charge the weed is a mainly muslims and speak a turkic language. it has also encouraged large numbers of han chinese to move to the region to shift the ethnic balance. the police routinely arrest men and women young and and put them in the camps where they are indoctrinated for hours at a time with government propaganda. these include week is who've left china and obtained a story in citizenship but have been arrested while simply visiting singeing. nearly every astray and we get family has a relative in one of the camps. we

are going survivor's guilt here and because we live in a free country and safe and sound yet we living this emotional prison. we are walking about walking dead almost so that's how i can describe our communities experience and we feel shame we feel guilt and because we can't do anything about help them and we doing what we can but decides not good enough help to help. them terrans 80 year old father was among those arrested and put in the camp. he's been loyal to the chinese government all his life. just average ordinary workers speaking with us who never done anything against government.

adam's father was detained for almost a year he was finally released in august 28th scene but died only a few weeks later. i couldn't call my mom. or any of my family members and i don't even know if. they are the funeral of protests. the last time adam's mother answered the phone she was at a police station having been arrested for receiving calls from abroad. i used to call my mom like 3 days every week. don't call me again. because i can't pick up before in any way so that was my last talk with my mom. and.

i missed that every week. i try not to talk about it that time but in breakfast table my kids ask sometimes like do you have parents. it's hard to explain them what's going on.

even those weak is not detained in camps a subject to systematic intrusion and surveillance. the singeing region is now widely equipped with the latest surveillance technology appearing to use artificial intelligence. every 200 it just is checkpoints that check your i.d.'s check your smartphone. there's just put deal fine and then this scan everything and if there is a like watson facebook twitter anything like religious cult like speech like praying. that kind of abyssinia funny or in trouble. every week over the age of 12 is forced to have the biometric data captured including voice blood d.n.a. samples and eye scans. they had to speak into a device in order to get

a unique voice signature for each person and then they did a 3 d. faced scan which meant that they had you had to have yourself a scan from all directions making different expressions on your face so they would get a clear reading of all of your emotions. this corporate video shows the latest facial recognition technology being used in chinese cities the government is now using it to track members of the weak a community not just in sindh jang but across china. that's something that they're quite proud of that they can detect racial difference or ethnic difference simply you know based on that appearance. a researcher at an astray university has been in. in developing methods better to identify ethnic minorities in china using artificial intelligence i. leave you one kwan at curtin university has been working on the chinese government funded research

that examines the faces of weaknesses and how their features could be better detected in facial scanning. is racial profiling that's essentially what this technology is being used for to distinguish we're from harm and the university has said that lee you won kwan was solely focused on the provision of quote technical advice to the chinese research team and that curtain unequivocally condemns the use of ai for any form of ethnic profiling that would quote negatively impact and or persecuting any person or group. following the revelations in this film however curtain investigated its research approval procedures but has yet to report on its findings they will say well this is my area of expertise wow i can use this stuff to identify a weaker as opposed to a harm you know with party state does about it is not my responsibility i think

that shameful and shocking i don't think straight researchers should be involved in that and it violates human ethics without a doubt. chinese police also use an app to track the purchases phone data and travel routines of weakness. human rights watch says that the app was developed by c. e.t.c a chinese government owned military tech company. in 2017 the university of technology in sydney u.t.s. signed a $6700000.00 u.s. dollars deal with c t c to establish a research center that included ai and surveillance projects. but following the revelations about c t c s role in sin jack u.t.s. has reviewed this relationship and ended its video surveillance project with the company i think the u.t.s.

and other universities here astray they have connections with any. party state company particularly in the military security sector needs to end those contracts and to pull out of those collaborative arrangements i mean essentially by doing that we were being complicit in the human rights abuses that are occurring in st john and in china more widely. the chinese government plan seems to be systematically to eliminate the pillars of we get culture like religion and language. using online satellite maps it's possible to track the destruction of mosques in. this large mosque and who tongue was demolished in 2019.

large areas of the stablished we got housing have also been pulled down. you're saying that being systematically demolished and in its place is becoming high rise apartment buildings which are a lot easier to control. there's also serious concern for the children of the 1000000 week is believed to be held in camps. those d.v.d.'s that leaked out and we start seeing the opening and a peep. even i did find some nieces nephews actually inside of that often each. chinese government documents show a large increase in the building and upgrading of children's nurseries and boarding

schools in singeing. it seems as though children are being deliberately separated from their families. what's happening to the children is that. if both parents are taken to the camps after the children are removed from the community they are a part of and they're placed in boarding schools or orphanages it's certainly been a massive increase in the building of nurseries and other education facilities for children. children are now in a process of reeducation or you know chinese assimilation. that's also how you inhibit what's called intergenerational transmission of culture and religion meaning their parents ability to pass on the cultural and spiritual heritage to the next generation if you can control that then you basically have

control over the entire next generation of these ethnic groups well you doing this to the babies that gives me all the time what's going to happen if i fancy myself again and the truth is kill my wife as well. meanwhile inside the camps their parents are being put to work mounting evidence points to a system of forced labor emerging in singeing. in october 28th mean chinese state television showed these detainees working at sewing machines in a camp in who tun. i'm quite used to uncovering dirty secrets of the chinese government but when i realized the magnitude and the impact the implications of what i found it was it was really something else. adrian zen's has

been going through chinese government documents and media reports online and found striking evidence of what seems to be happening behind the camp walls. basically there's a huge scheme going on a huge plan and shinji to put all kinds of people into different forms of involuntary labor being moved around a bit like figures on the chessboard you know and they're put into places where the government can control them this kind of cooperation is not voluntary it's being enforced. government videos promote the new scheme and this young we go woman talks up the positive aspects of her new job . and.

there's evidence that detainee labor is being used to attract businesses to singeing offering $700.00 u.s. dollars per employee for example if a factory trains and then employs a camp detainee they get $5000.00 remember per worker over the course of 3 years. they also get intensive subsidies for example they can use a factory building for free for the 1st 2 years the most sort of shocking or problematic aspect of this whole scheme in change young is that it's planned in such detail and enforced with such urgency. now that more so. you know you hold your breath and so all. those who are in the camps are supposed to get jobs permanent factory jobs the reason is that in these jobs the government can control them they can just take off their altogether it's

very easy to control people in these environments they also can't take off on friday to go to the mosque they also can't fast they cannot do basic religious practice. no it drinks lives in melbourne her sister deal no one is forced to work in one of these factories. deal nor is a qualified nurse and has 2 children. in 2017 she and her husband were both arrested and sent to the camps. my sister is in the us she didn't know how to is a mega closed. in may 2019 deal nor was transferred from the camp to work for a textile manufacturer. using her employee id card it was possible to trace her company to this technology park 30 kilometers north of the capital

a room. deal nor told her sister that she's only allowed home to see her children and parents once a week her husband was still missing. it's the husband's to live or die we don't know what happened is a bad thing happened i don't know anything. in june 29th seen having heard nothing for several months gul nor received a disturbing video call. it was deal nor scared of the audio being monitored she hand wrote notes asking her sister in melbourne to speak out about her plight despite the risks. some. how did this push up the money and had more. is his cane used to combat initially

couldn't. deal nors notes spelled out what she wanted go nor to tell the world. she said see. 160 people are brought in shackled and handcuffed and it's big they have no choice if they say something they will end up in jail you could be sure they could. pull them a little bit come along we are. going to court the. gulnaz suggested that her sister hinted at wanting to end her own life. should killick that it be certain to look into it but hope change like but i. mean i'm thinking. that.

these brands sold in a stroller have all reportedly used cotton from syngenta. cotton on and target or straight began investigations into their relationships with suppliers and factories their. cotton on even visited the region in september 28th ina and met a supplier whose factory is only 6 kilometers from a large internment camp. as a result of their reviews cotton on and target a stray no longer source cotton from syngenta. ikea also conducted an order to of their yarn supplier in subject and say they found there was no forced labor taking place western companies stand in increasing risk of having products made by forced or at least highly involuntary labor somewhere in

the supply chains it's going to become inevitable esther scheme is unfolding and getting bigger and bigger. saddam hussein has not seen his wife in a dealer for over 2 years. look free turn 2 in august 29 tain and saddam was desperate to spend with him in australia i'm totally broke actually elect financially mentally physically i used to be a strong big guy but this thing to totally ruin my life. you know that. sick kid. he looks like both of you know he looks like me. yeah it does after 8 months of trying to secure

a story in citizenship for his baby saddam and his lawyer finally picked up look fees passport finally his. citizen. passport he's got a. big stick. saddam hopes that he'll be able to use it soon and that the dealer can come with him. so. it's not dog. owner. it's you doing everything again to get to that but. the chinese ambassador to australia was invited to be interviewed for this program but he declined however in june $2900.00 he appeared at an australia china business council event in canberra for many reasons but underlined china's magnificent achievement the most fundamental one is that i'm swerving but here it is to the leadership of the

chinese communist party. a.b.c. reporter sophie mcneill asked the ambassador about china's treatment of the weak is why is the communist party doing this now it's a training. and education center to help people who have affected by radical idea ideology to better intervene is my society with which one of them why did i need maintain gratian why this is to happen to find the jobs what do you do how to make a better living they have jobs or is it just because they're muslim no no no. after the a.b.c. in australia 1st showed this program the chinese embassy in canberra posted this statement on its website heavily criticizing it and calling it biased it made its own justification for adopting what it called a series of counter-terrorism and d. radicalization measures and referred users to 3 of its own more positive reports

about xinjiang. the endgame in my opinion is very clearly the long term survival and rule of the communist party. this is being achieved by achieving complete ideological control over every part of china. beijing has declared the ultimate war on the religion and culture of these talking minorities and shinjiro. and it's not going to rest until there will be lasting lead change forever and. i think that's what they're doing. to systematically assimilate us into chinese society. i think they want us to eat like chinese or walk like chinese all live like to a nice or die like chinese. people look at

the legal definition of genocide has to be systematic it has to be intentional. this is an act of cultural genocide i'm one of the worst and bring them to me. every day every single of us. i can't even flip on the 9th time. that's my life now there's not any happiness. can't enjoy from any sings. maybe they're going to take her again just because of i'm speaking out of what no other option left undone everything i speak with the home affairs i speak with the foreign minister us as big as a trying to talk with the chinese authorities bribe them but still there is nothing happening in post he is. so now i have to speak out
