Nearly thousand teenagers swore loyalty to the Party in
Urumchi |

Our correspondent Boghdu reports
from Urumchi:
On March 30 in Urumchi at the People’s Square about 1000
teenagers were gathered from primary and secondary
schools to celebrate 80-th anniversary of the Chinese
Communist Youth organization. The teenagers were lined
up in front of the monument to the “Peaceful liberation
of Xinjiang” (in reality the reminder of the Communist
Chinese occupation) and were order to give a vow of
“following the path of heroes and always being loyal to
the party!”
As our correspondent told us, now in all Eastern
Turkistan national primary and secondary schools
schoolchildren gather every morning at school squares
decorated with Chinese banners and slogans to
participate in the ritual of hoisting the national flag
and reciting aloud slogans like ‘we shall defend the
unity of Motherland!”, “we will stand against the
nationalist separatists!” etc. Besides, previously all
national schools had portraits, quotes and citations
from poems of national Uyghur writers, poets,
philosophers, intellectuals and scientists like Makhmud
Kashgari, Yusup Has Hajib, Abduhaliq Uyghur, Lutfulla
Mutallip and many others. These portraits and citations
were torn down and replaced by political slogans like
“Let us stand together against national separatists and
strengthen unity of Motherland!» “Xinjiang is an
inseparable part of China!” and others ideological
slogans of the same nature.
All these ideological actions make people think if the
“Great Cultural revolution” is coming back again?
