3:21 am
many of those people also inhabit the week or region of china, demographically, the chinese nation is divided into 56 ethnic groups. but the resulting mosaic is on the buttons. in fact, one could say the china is cutting to the eastern pockets. we have most common chinese live concentration in nature of consensus. they might cup 92 percent of china and the ethnic groups among them. tibetans long goals, we got another toe kick speakers. 60 percent of china's natural resources located in these territories and habits in plastic minorities are now almost as many i'm chinese in some john has their own week is. this is the results of migration organized by the communist party since 1949, which is split up significantly since president sheeting pain came to the week is

just the start of the series of the timing revelations for the chinese government. the face safety meeting with jim and research adrian's and was held in a discreet location in the us midwest. the discovery is by the center apologist. connect spots on the central policies of my time of pain. if the chinese to power for months is ends on the signs of these mess in 10 minutes. in thousands of pages of official documents available on the internet, the public must us to manage. shouldn't you understand what kind of the problem is that it's impossible to carry out research in some jang,
3:31 am
she needs her phone line method is to look for data and statistics from the chinese government, from official budget documented to get the job listings report still can help locations, articles and circles 5 on what other patasha a lot of upon. what i do next is a bit like detective would work well, putting a puzzle together, an odd that a key fob i put on uh, pulls it up by the scattering official documents. jim's phone calls for attendance for the construction of what chinese authorities called professional training centers. but the required equipment to the research is attention distribution fixed. once you start most of the most important evidence showing that these are re education with hands 5 with those tools, depending on which said on paper, we need, if you would facility for the re education one to 2. most mazda have a camera system with no blind spots. it must be surrounded by high walls with bombed wire and have watched countless people send back to him if we need
3:32 am
a special police station with um to our lease on the facility to put its high off season. colonda as it is. if it was incredible to see all these details about security in surveillance and for the government to describe them so directly, suzanne dusty like you want to so often thought it after i'm losing the data, i found the 2017. adrian's ends estimated to thousands of companies were being built mainly in brewer. they are using cellphones and john by his calculations, up to 1000000 people could be in time that this was immediately confirmed by another source in canada. for students, a chinese defense managed to find the geographic code and it's a piece detention centers and locate them on satellite images. like here in cosca joined, alter, secure, complex built in just a few months. the, you can clearly see
3:33 am
a surrounding wall. estimated to be 10 meters high. 7 much tell us there's in general, authorities are built about 20 buildings that including 13 more than 5 stories high . this come could be able to hold up to 10000 to tell you these, the by the summer of 2018. thanks to the series of revelations. no one could be left unaware of the terrible human rights violations in san john. there was no doubt that the accounts exist in the united nations, somewhat atomic to us china, to account for the chinese delegation was expected of the u. n. z repeating headquarters to present emissions. china plans of puts in place to flight racial discrimination. the us special ripple
3:34 am
to all the chinese representatives out right for an explanation of the repression of weakness ends in john in the name of combating religious extremism and maintaining its social stability. the state party has turned the weaker a ton of lust region into something that resembles a mass of internment camp that is shrouded in secrecy. a sort of a no rights and so on. and the members of the weaker minority, along with others who are identified as muslims, are being treated as enemies of the state they solely on their that's no religious identity, the suite somebody about resorting page g opposite to junction there one the unsure of on one can't move
3:35 am
across, the sure can young jin, so the font dodgy comb, which we get around to eat finley is where you find the ball. a sign campbell finds you well sign infiniti utility. and that means what's on your fargo . the chinese delegation must denied the existence of re education, comes with admitted to opening professional training centers the time to fight extremism through education and walk. the chinese authorities opposed what they called unbearable meddling and its internal affairs and manipulation by the enemies of the people's republic. the it was just the beginning because witnesses also made themselves the chinese
3:36 am
communist party ones had only good things to say about cope in the city. chinese women, of course, back as nicety married to a we got killed enough to join the ease in ludowici. she was a model loyal beach and member of the party. that's why it is in general authorities coming theater to teach clauses. and one of the centers. of course, the application to remain complete the sign of about what was going on that as an a gift. because uncle i said counseling or your daughter is studying in the netherlands. they knew because we had to give them family updates every month to said you must be especially careful. don't say anything about teaching there, sort of not to your colleagues or your family. never forgets that until march the 1st 2017. a police officer picked her up and drove her to the top of a hill overlooking the city, the blue much. when i
3:37 am
got out of the car, i was by an old blue gray, 4 story building. there was a wall going all the way around, some with barbed wire and metal gate soto to get into the courtyard. you had to go through 3 security gates portal. as soon as i went in, i was trying to talk to the portal. there were heavily armed soldiers in the courtyard and that'd be that i immediately felt depressed. the i think you, marcia, the kid is as much as a police officer took me to what he said was the office for employees. there were 5 young, weaker women there. one told me that they would call the students and i could follow them. then they shouted classes starting and chinese just pushed out the budget. the doors opened and the students started coming out. and then we'll go through the task when you're washed over me. i started shaking. i was terrified to come
3:38 am
to school, they have chains on their hands and feet. they came out like that to load up when i saw them. i wasn't shocked me. i couldn't come down any more to say you have to get on the phone with them. i counted them. there were 97 with it up send it all were numbered orange bags and was just. it was forbidden to use their names. offices. not coupla when i worked in i automatically said i still have my laker with legacy, but everyone have their hands as low as possible. there were whispers and the 7 women at the back started sleeping look like it. did you have that in the count at 1st we taught them chinese, but later on we were ordered to teach them red stones, for example, about how without the communist party there wouldn't be a new china. we have to fill their brains with these other non solutions. the significant really intended to teach these people. if they'd let them leave
3:39 am
in the evening, there'd be no reason to chain their hands and feet and torture. the oldest people did nothing wrong with their only so called crime. that the because we will go on over to the town for a year. calvin. oh, unwillingly continued the mission. legal authorities just given up in october 2019 the policy kind of permission to go to the netherlands to visit her daughter. she requested political to sign up the distraught by what she had seen. kilbane who was one of the 1st to bear witness to the weakest fight. the incident jack, a few phone reports is out small to police surveillance and managed to sneak some
3:40 am
footage for to find enclosures for fault wire, i'm watch towers surveillance cameras. these images corroborated while adrian's and said uncovered inefficient documents use us nice images, show the proliferation of companies throughout the region in 2020 australia and are such as identified the 380 new ones. according to adrian's, and that might be $13.00 to $1400.00 of them in total, the during construction jobs and sidewalk has posted a few images from inside these buildings that the chinese co professional training centers. some of these videos, the skype, the notice of chinese census, they don't show classrooms the growth of cells and torture chambers.
3:41 am
so those are the steps to go to folks. but it doesn't seem fact that my heart starts racing up. does all the thinking in there means the punishment would be very severe. well, you know, definitely try to make his confess testing to see what's the use to truly barberick method. we up the restrain you and hung you from the wall. some bearable they hit you with wooden and rubber buttons and even use on guns. lane is in humans, should them have how does this when you're tortured light? that's you screamed dad. mom save me. when i put it on the i should pull up. this is what i'm looking for. um yeah. the torture last it's 7 months and 10 days to the old before the rest, like many weeks cuz i say lift, what can i bring? cuz i can spring 2017. he went as in jim to attend the training show
3:42 am
that he was arrested and then turned in a come, you'll start to accused him of having separate test ideas is now a refugee in the netherlands. these were united with his family, but he remembers when he went through all too vividly. so i'll get them to show 10 more products. but i suppose from the 6 30 am we stood facing the wall for the raising of the chinese flag. and also the detainee is more orange uniforms like the prisoners and the one turned them on pay from the entry we were in chains. i'm in this, we were forced to sing read sounds real sure. send you another the some do this thing we're going to seems to didn't give us any food at the but it was given a she doesn't like that. yep. mostly from a bit of may, since i refused to learn, the national i'm from are single read sounds of stuff is and that's always given for different punishments. that's a local agent. now don't you that typically does our show
3:43 am
at the 1st floor speeds beaten the buttons and then forced to face the wall for 24 hours to the other with nothing to eat or drink. so somebody shouldn't be the middle, but you get it as a 2nd. the punishment was being restrained and the tiger turner in the water bottle and they do the act when they're tired from beating over the weekend without any food or water you them to assess, show you make specially better later level. most of them a stringent as a 3rd as being heads and then locked in a cell that's 3 square meters. so on this as i do it without food or water, send me a draft on line. the company said that the the dungeons as a force punishment of you are made to styles naked except for your 100 pounds in the snow or cold for 24 hours. it didn't matter if you were shivering or freezing.
3:44 am
and if it was summer i was going to have to stay in the sun and make it up to fill up the cushion. that's what it says, the . the pleasure colors. this isn't going to make you an abundant your ethnicity, your religious belief system to brainwash you the torture you psychologically little. he but some of the humiliating or the play the heart of like the i'm yeah, this is salvation to diplomats and catholics. dom well, he become a citizen, the torture and humiliations. he describes the definition of brainwashing a method that can be traced back to 19 fifties china. the
3:45 am
often the gentleman squared mastic are in 1999. a former executive decided to leave the policy and take refuge in the us, where he now teaches political science. cl mean says chinese leaders methodical use an old communist text. me comes in john the seal. and so when you rein washing is an expression of chinese origin, which means beating the brain and watching it. and i said, i guess originally this was done by force, often starting with food deprivation was because they said that hunger could destroy a man's will. can't see when you go to the brain. washing has been practiced regularly by the chinese communist party from a sense of change of power into the other homes with the us. so you know way that's what makes the chinese people vehicle within a, b, d. and if i'm including g, a, so we live here and go for the home. hung isn't the only weapon come,
3:46 am
got used to subjugating the population on the column like it will look at that. i brought a cleric and said he wasn't a mom, but we couldn't verify that. he advised us to stop believing in our religion that there was no god other than she's in pain. and that only the communist party could save us probably a send them to somebody over to an i was not a threat. however, johnny's will forward. he's disapproved of a too frequent trips to cause ex dawn and saw her face in islam a successive. she was subjected to 11 months of re education. when she thought that the god shaped her head and made a winter uniform, she knew from the beginning that she'd go through now the
3:47 am
toilet, even the out of the cars that i saw. and i believe the police officers came to get me. i was with another girl. i remember there was a man and clean clothes with them. cook got them, but part of the were a black suit supplied glasses and a surgical mask because the product was a neck mike, a couple of them can. eva took his glasses off, but i couldn't see a space under the mask. kaden on the palm, then a man in uniform came in. no 1000, but very directly. he said in a couple of the machine was messed up to my. you said, take your clothes on the baby. i thought, why does he say that? are they going to hit me again? i asked my dad and crawled up in a ball i'm to know. plus some of them within the he grabbed me. i still have dropped me the most and he ripped by co stars,
3:48 am
cut up kept the run around. if i didn't have the strength to pretend it was dropped, pushed pushed me the director of the games coming up today broke me up. another guard came along. escalade while 2 of them held me, i fainted and fell down, cause i said, i don't know what those 3 did to me. i thanks to her cause that comes to us and i was released. but she remained severely affected before leaving the camp. she had to promise she never speak of what happened but the whole so brave citizens in china disapprove of the tournament. the policy
3:49 am
of subjecting link is to an autumn 2019 winds in john was still cuts off by $0.20 a ship. an anonymous sauce sent the new york times find some information over 400 pages of internal chinese communist party documents that contained many official investigations and directives, reports on surveillance and controls the week population statements by high rank and communists. and lastly, 96 pages of speeches made by president changing pain himself. in these one can read the official orders he gave during his visit us in gen 4 years earlier . these links in john papers confirmed the implementation of a foster system of detention comes decided by the highest levels of the communist hierarchy. and these internal government documents with the chinese
3:50 am
president, one addressing reasonable forties compared to religious extreme is up to a virus to an evil truck. changing pain stated that the fight against this scourge would require long combined for treatment. and the chinese communist policy, which has to use all the tools of dictatorship to have a comment coming from the mouth of the chinese president admins, extreme actions are authorized even touched, the local authorities to show absolutely no massey in chinese leaders mines. it's about treating people with evil, a radical stones, approved by many intellectuals function tingley, a university professor, government advisor. and so what's the chromebooks are spindle? if we compare terrorism to a virus, we have to find out who's carrying the volume or tongue. we're not going to kill
3:51 am
them, but the warranty and the requests, they must be given free treatment. so they can recover quickly say, what if it's an ideological virus, it's harder to know who is infected and what does one do then on that you might get sent to a certain place for a while, where you will be given an ideological training alongside to job training to the, the what the the, the track down those with this idea, logical virus, the policy put the population in saint john. i'm the surveillance in china. the policy is always and he is everywhere in every district neighborhood factory in building the consumer even more than elsewhere, the dictatorship is deployed its most powerful tools, so called small cameras facial recognition, biometrics,
3:52 am
digital spying. since the launch of the repression campaign in 2014, the population of this chinese farm west has become the most monitor in the well, the one of the things, the chinese state talks about in terms of particular surveillance programming. but really is the same thing about the re education program. is they called preventative policing? the idea that this person is not yet an extremist. they're not yet a terrace, but we can see that they might become one. so we need to act that states surveillance and she and young is pervasive, but maybe it's easier to think about it in sort of a 3 dimensional everyday sense. imagine, for example, a q r code has been placed outside your front door so that authorities can stop by and
3:53 am
scan that code to see if it is registered to live there and then knock on the door and see if the right people are there. or maybe the wrong people are there and leave your house in the morning to take your children to school and to go to the shops. you have to pass through a check point. so you have to swipe your id card and to go through those. so that the authorities can know what trajectory you followed and all the while. remember, if you're outside your video surveillance cameras tracking you, we know that the authorities will track people if they turn their phones off. so going off the grid is problematic to everyone's a suspect every way, all the time. under the pretext of fighting terrorism, the policy has criminalized all sorts of behavior. in some german local leaders drew up a list of 75 signs of radicalization. top of the list,
3:54 am
advocating the succession to sit in june. and the creation of an islamic state to be stuck is done. but of much more mundane behaviors as seen as warning signs, such as something me quitting drinking or smoking. boy colton. cultural sporting events or closing, you'll restaurant during ramadan. this least gives law enforcement a lot of room for interpretation. and i think the parties have been government. some goal is to make clear to all rigorous across and young, that there are red lines. and the penalty for crossing that used to be detained for months at a time, and now possibly prosecuted. and given her sentences it produces precisely one of the effects. i think that the authorities are hoping to achieve,
3:55 am
which is scaring people into here and totals mission the despite the awesomeness of payments in saint john, never mind the blind spot to which the communist party have no access families. private knives, the pots you have no idea the because i'm chinese and we just don't necessarily get them all. they would need to be forced to get to know each of the chinese leaders organized, estimate community we the once a month we confirmed these get to visit from an chinese person who stays with them for a few days. video shared on social media. everyone looks very happy at
3:56 am
the but in reality these frank chinese friend 0 so that to judge family members loyalty to the policy, it was very clear that it also was for surveillance purposes to see who was living at home. wasn't there how religious were they? did the children speak training is rigor, you're all of this data gets recorded and can you imagine having officials from the ruling party in your country? you move into your house instead of your dinner table and sleeping your bed with you on invited, particularly in a culture that is still reasonably conservative. so with the high tech surveillance titles,
3:57 am
don't worry the parties. they are to make sure that they're keeping an eye on you, even in low tech ways to since 2016, the communist party has sent more than 1000000. how interesting john cox is with no remaining signs of weaker culture. the . this is the communist penalties, big project, erase the weaker identity to patch and replacing the today. joining there was the main trading volunteer of a $130.00 countries, including 10 in the economically inescapable china seems to enjoy something close to impunity. except for the sanction the attempts by a few major democratic countries, the international community is largely keeping its head down. meanwhile, the week is continued to face during a refresher in china,
