I decided to fly out to Xinjiang but wasn't planning on making much video content. I'm here looking to have some authentic experiences and make connections with new friends with the cameras off, but figured I could post a few quick updates from the ground.

As a Chinese, I also don't believe that all people in Xinjinag is having a wonderful life. But there's a lot difference between "my family restaurant business is not doing so well" and "I was forced to pick cotton as slave". I just hope people can go to Xinjiang and have unbiased report of the truth.

Great job Daniel, I visited Xinjiang almost two years ago, my flight from Toronto to Urumqi took more than 22 hours (that’s flying time, not including waiting time for connecting flights, which can add another 10hours or more). The first thing I noticed was the high security, almost everywhere you go, there were security guards with metal detectors to scan you before entry, I also saw in a restaurant the chain attached to the knifes you mentioned, when asked, the owner told me that was because it happened before when terrorists passed through the security empty-handed, then went to the kitchen and grabbed the knifes to stab people. Another thing that I can attest is that I noticed that although most Uighurs know some mandarin, but they always communicated in their native dialect among themselves. Some older Uighur actually didn’t speak any mandarin at all. My general impression was the locals were very proud of how safe their place is now as compared to 5 years prior. Anyways, your video reminded me of a lot of the good time I had in Xinjiang.

But last year, when I heard from west media and politicians and genocide and ethnic cleansing happening in Xinjiang, I was like: which Xinjiang? Seems like they are talking about a Xinjiang in a different planet. I just can't believe someone can lie to your face like this. It's an insult to human intelligence.

Media interviews of Zenz are too soft. The first question they should ask is what his qualifications to be a 'China expert' are? I read that he spent 3 weeks in 2008 in a few places in China, probably a few days in Xinjiang. He found nothing to report then until his masters asked him to write a report in 2016. This is what he said in a radio interview on NPR last year. ZENZ: I have long argued that the atrocity in the region is a cultural genocide, not a literal genocide. I do continue to believe that, generally speaking, the Chinese government does not intend to physically eradicate the Uighurs.

A minimum wage that everyone else won't get maybe until 2024. Win win only for the prison industrial complex.

Well done Daniel. An outstanding video. My wife and I are Australians and we visited Kashgar (and Urumqi andTurpan) in 2016. We had a wonderful time. Our tour guides (Shir and Abdul - God bless them) were absolutely brilliant. Like you we spent alot of time in Kashgar, particularly in the old city. We even got to visit the Grand Mosque in the centre of the old city. We saw no evidence of the sorts of things China is being accused of. We also visited the livestock market which is the largest of its type in the world. What a great experience. I recently saw a YT video featuring Saagar Enjeti (I suspect you might know him) where he championed the boycott of Xinjiang cotton by western clothing manufacturers. I commented back to him that the people who were being hurt by the boycott were farmers who owned small cotton farms. Not unlike the farmer you interviewed. Mate well done and continue the good work.

Honest vlog from my favourite vlogger based in China. I am Asian and I have been following topics related to China for almost two years. I am by no means expert but I did noticed that very little is known of Xinjiang outside China. To create more awareness the government should held sporting events, expo, exhibitions, film shoots maybe a film city in Xinjiang. I know, Xinjiang and Tibet has lagged behind in economic and social development compare to rest of the provinces in China but the last few years have seen dramatic change in the lives of these people. There is already total eradication of poverty in these areas. I am hopeful that further opening up of Xinjiang will only help change the negative opinion held by Western media towards it. 👍 Edit: Also, it's perfect time to visit Kashgar, since muslim holy month of Ramadan is going on, it will be nice to see how it is celebrated and performed in Xinjiang. :)

Daniel, I am from Sweden and the swedish television SVT made a reporting from the city that you are in, recently. And they were followed(Stalked) by, as they (SVT) interpeded of some kind of Police. They(SVT) were also trying to snoop around the so called camps . The whole thing felt scewed in a way to make China a dystopic place. Swedish taxfunded media is going along with the usual western perspective both the radiocorresponent from SR who is extremly fond with opposition groups and make special podcast to make China bad and the Television broadcasting is the same. My take on Chinas view on these types of actors is that China will have an extra eye on these when they come and visit because they know that thay come with bad intention, and China is in a position that they can give a fuck what those organisations think about them, am i wrong?

Those "media" will often film some conflicts with uniformed people as if they're blocked by police from revealing something. In reality, those aren't even police. They didn't get permission before entering non public premises, trespassing in other words, and were stopped by security guards. I bet you if they did the same thing in the USA, the cop would clear the entire magazine on them already. I really do hope they get followed by the police, if that's true the Chinese govt is doing the right thing, because these people only have ill intention.

He is righteous, heroic and gallant. He cannot stand injustice and unfairness. He battles the powerful evil and he helps the downtrodden, the unfortunate. His Kung Fu skills are his considerable intellectual capacity, his wide-ranging knowledge, and his amazing articulateness. He seeks out and calls out hypocrisy and nefarious activities. Using his videos, he shines light on the wrongdoings. He is a ray of hope in our messed up world.

The chinese renovated the area and beautified it. This is kashgar old city. This area was deteriorating really badly with poor people and poor sanitation and maintenance. The city was unplanned with poor sanitation. The chinese demolished a lot of the old buildings and reconstructed them in traditional uyghur achitetecture. They used the same materials uyghur have used to build for centuries. They widened the streets built sanitation and electricity and the decorated the area with greenery. The chinese first moved the uyghur to new apartments away from the old kashgar city, they then demolished the old deteriorating buildings and then rebuilt and redecorated the buildings in old kashgar city. After that, they moved the residents from their temporary apartments back into the reconstructed and redecorated buildings in the old kashgar city. That is why the place looks the way it does.

I counted 54 cameras in this video, 22 of which were in the first 2 minutes. In the beginning they can be seen everywhere on the right and left sides of the street, later on cameras appear in large clusters around street bends and intersections. There is without a doubt many, many more that could not be seen or identified as cameras, when he was walking in the middle of the larger main street it was difficult to see for example, and his face was always getting in the way. Some things looked like cameras but I could not be sure, so I excluded these from my final count. I estimate that there must've been maybe 3 times as many cameras in this video that were hidden from sight or that I just missed, that's potentially 100-200 cameras and I still feel there's more hidden away, you can occasionally spot cameras on rooftops when the angle is just right for example, if we assume the roofs are as well surveilled as the street than the estimate can be doubled. In the whole video he walked down 3, 4, maybe 5, different streets and alleys. This seems like a very quiet, well-off neighbourhood, you see few people throughout the video and everything is well maintained. Why then is there so many cameras for so few people and such a small area? Also of note is camera quality, they seem very modern and high quality to me and most appear to be outfitted with night vision and/or infrared vision, clearly a lot has been invested into this surveillance network. He jokes that nobody is following him and that things don't seem dystopia. Firstly, why would they need to follow him when they have so many cameras? Secondly, the abundance of cameras seems pretty fucking dystopian.
