The above picture is a statement issued by Nike. The translation roughly means: Nike, like H&M, slanders Xinjiang as a potential risk of forced labor in the name of due diligence. What’s even more disgusting is that Nike said: “A company in Australia spread rumors that “many of our companies in China are related to Xinjiang, so our Taiguang Group employs employees from Xinjiang, but after the Xinjiang incident surfaced Stop hiring them. Nike has stopped recruiting workers from Xinjiang. Nike has nothing to do with Xinjiang anymore! "
what? Our country oppresses working people in Xinjiang, and you Nike come to uphold justice? Then I want to ask, your boycott and refusal to hire Xinjiang workers are the protection of Xinjiang workers? Oh Maga! The act of standing up again is really disgusting.
There is a risk of oppression of ethnic minorities in China? Please find out the facts before you speak! You don’t know the fact that ethnic minorities will get points in exams at that time. We are all envious. Talking about oppression?
Let’s talk about Xinjiang cotton.
Xinjiang is China’s largest cotton production area. There are large areas of hand-picking cotton, which requires a lot of labor every year. Back then, it was a political project in Xinjiang. When it came time to pick cotton, All government institutions and schools will go to support agriculture, and labor from Gansu, Sichuan, Henan and other places will be exported. Is this kind of behavior of relying on geographical advantages to produce cotton and people relying on cotton to make money? This behavior is compulsory? If this is the truth, then may I ask? Which place does not rely on labor to make money?
So what is the production of cotton in Xinjiang?
In 2014, the documentary "Cotton" directed by Zhou Hao was released. The film started with Xinjiang cotton production and told about Chinese cotton. The whole process of the industry.
