New Tools of Accelerating Assimilation
The Chinese regime has long been
doing everything possible to assimilate Uyghurs into the
greater Chinese ethnic group. In the recent years the
regime implemented the strategy of sending some Uyghur
schoolchildren from national schools to inner parts of
China for studying in the total Chinese background. The
Ministry of Education has recently steadily increased
the number of schoolchildren going to study in inner
China. According to the planning of Ministry of
Education, the number of students who complete first
level secondary education and enter higher education
levels should have at least 45% of the students educated
in inner China. In order to restrict the access of
Uyghur students to education, Ministry of Education is
elaborating new plans of abolishing the system of
stipends and grants.
