According to news released from so called Xinjiang Uyhgur Autonomous region Hoten government in march3, 2008, 465 Uyghur farmers had been send to the inland Chinese cities, the Guangdong and Shandong as a labor force again. ETIC learned that all of these farmers were young Uyhgur women between age 14 and 25 and they had been forcibly removed from their homeland with various tactics such as menacing with heavy fines or with beautiful promises including several insurance plans and high salary, Despite the forcible transferring the children of the group to another group is a serious crime that is included in the definition of “genocide” intent of the International Criminal Court of the Rome Statute article 6.

Although Chinese media describes relocation as a way for Uyghurs to “become wealthy ” by “organizing extra labor for Chinese cities”; the government policy can be viewed as a way to create living space for the in-migration of large numbers of Han Chinese migrants to East Turkistan. The government’s “Go West” campaign has attracted thousands of Han Chinese migrant workers to East Turkistan since it was occupied in 1949. According to Chinese official website Tianshan news net, Railway stations in East Turkistan currently be prepared to bring 800 thousand Han Chinese migrant workers from inland China to East Turkistan from March 3 to April 12 in this year wile their transferring young Uyghur women to inland China.

ETIC learned that these young women workers barely get paid in their working places, and they were not allowed to refuse to work and return to their homeland, since it was not only favor to government agenda but also became the way of “getting rich” for the government officials who is in charge and appointed by the central government. These government authorities and government appointed staffs are responsible for relocation policy and their rights are protected by the government. As a result, they exploit or manipulate the regulation of any laws that could be protect workers rights, in order to fulfill the quota of relocation and get praise from the government; in the meantime they fill their pocket with recruitment fees which are directly paid to them by the factories that cut off from the young women workers salary.

As a result, relocating young Uyghur women to inland Chinese cities are intensified despite the strong opposition of Uyghurs. But it was seen as a terrible gendercide policy for Uyghurs in East Turkistan since it was implemented through coercive means and mainly focused on relocation of young women from East Turkistan to inland China.

Central governments supported the relocation policy since in 2002. At the beginning 2002, the Chinese communist party central government and state department’s request “comments for doing well in 2002 agriculture farm work” and in 2003, No1 resolution the “announcement of doing well the work that helping and managing the transferring farmers into cities for employment” distributed by Chinese state department, in order to accelerated the relocation of labor surplus from Chinese villages to Chinese cities. Xinjiang government implemented this policy very quickly and become champion to help achieving central government’s hidden agenda that reducing Uyghur population and depriving the land.
