According to news based on Chinese government website Tian shan news net, in july 5th ,  so called Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous region tourism bureau party secretary Chi Chong Ching  said in this week  “  Traveling Xinjiang ( East Turkistan) is very safe . Society is very stable in here and economy developed, rich of tourism resources waiting for domestic and foreign tourists.”

65 people in East Turkistan are going to be convicted on charges related to the Olympic Games by the Chinese government . At least 20 of these Uyghurs reportedly face the death penalty in soon, according to Hong Kong based Information center for Human Rights and Democracy.

“There is no terrorist threat to tourists, but there is a threat to Uyghurs of East Turkistan.  Every Uyghur home is target of police search at midnight randomly, they never nock your door, they will kick your door to open and point the gun on your head and ask your ID cards. If you were visitor of the family you would be arrested on that night” said young mother from Gulja at the phone, who identified only her first name as an Elmira.

 Chinese government propaganda magnified terrorist threat in East Turkistan since September eleven and never has stopped arrest and execution. China already has launched a 15 days of mass arrest campaign beginning on July 1st to July the 15th in East Turkistan with the excuse of Olympic security.
