Red Star over China (10) Wang Lequan speech
Xinjiang city of Kashgar in western China's most
The years 1997-2000, a period of impressive
Cadres and the welcome reception in the Yuan Jiang, Wang Lequan made an important speech. In his speech, he welcomed by the people on behalf of Xinjiang, eight from the Mainland provinces and cities Yuanjiang cadres and made the request; to us about Xinjiang, political, economic, social situation, with an emphasis on the current in Xinjiang's social stability in the face the situation, informed only recently occurred in Yining, "25" riot situation.
I can remember so the more profound passages:
Before we came to Xinjiang, have conveyed the Yining riots of 25, some comrades may say that there will not be so serious, right? Here, I tell you, in fact, is a very serious, much more than we imagine, more serious !..... now the West has fueled rumors that we repression of the civilian啦,啦engage in a religious discrimination, racial discrimination, there are even more more distortion of the facts reported, such as the British BBC reported that I armed forces to suppress the civilian population, killing more than 150 ...... relatively speaking, the Voice of America reported that a number of fairly objective, saying that there are 10 in the event a few people death, and the fact that access is not too large (gangsters killing of seven civilians )...... now I come to bring the truth to tell you.
That some comrades may ask such a grim situation in Xinjiang, we come to work in Xinjiang, there is no guarantee their personal safety? Shandong here and my fellow, and here I responsibly tell you that working in Xinjiang during the personal safety is absolutely guaranteed, engage in the activities of ethnic separatism and terrorism, only a very small number of people, we have ** million people in Xinjiang People's Liberation Army, armed police with * 10000, more than 300 million Production and Construction Corps, more than 1600 million against the division to maintain a unified people of all nationalities, very minority separatists成不了气候, turn not days!
Xinjiang is China's territory since ancient times, but since the Western Han had begun to split and anti-separatism struggle has not stopped, from the class than to the Western Regions to set up the Anxi Frontier Command Tang Dynasty, from the Qing Zuo, "carrying coffin into the Xinjiang" pacification of Xinjiang to 49-year rebellion Xinjiang was peacefully liberated, the struggle continued for thousands of years. Entering the 90 years since the upheaval in Eastern Europe by the disintegration of the former Soviet Union and other outside influences, Xinjiang separatist forces revived and ready to make trouble. Some time ago I went to Kyrgyzstan, the Kyrgyz president told me that when the Soviet period, our desire for the desire for independence is so strong, but now a truly independent, and it was an independent state in Xinjiang is so hard ...... away from the motherland that can not survive.
A very solemn atmosphere of the venue, and we listen very attentively.
The next three years, waiting for us exactly what is it?
