China does heaps of things really badly and obnoxiously, but some things really well.
When the communists took power, it was Taiwan talking One China - they bombarded the mainland with One China propaganda fliers - with the dream of re-unifying as a non-communist state. China has been under the impression that they'd be able to do it gradually and peacefully as heaps of Taiwanese do view themselves as Chinese, but those numbers are diminishing and Xi has his dream of bieng the emporor that returns China to its maximum size. Going to get ugly.
You'll be happy to know that I subscribe to the Beijing Review and this month's copy has a nice article by yourself, laying out the outstanding work that the chinese gov't has done for the Uygurs. Evidently, their income doubled over the course of a decade. The nasty West "wielded the club of human rights" etc etc. You write well. Page 22. The party will be pleased.
