    ISLAMABAD - Pakistan has demanded China to soften restrictions on Chinese Muslims living in Xinjiang province. Federal Minister Pir Noorul Haq Qadri while meeting Chinese Ambassador Yao Jing said that strict regulations and laws fuel extremism and in order to curb intolerance and promote religious harmony China should deal with patience.

    The minister proposed that Pakistani religious scholars can visit the troubled region and can play their role in ending extremist ideology and promote moderate thinking.

    The Chinese ambassador promised that his government will soon facilitate Pakistani delegation of religious scholars to visit Xinjiang province.

    According to international media reports, Muslim ethnic minorities are being subjected to arbitrary detention, torture, egregious restrictions on religious practice and culture, and a digitized surveillance system so pervasive that every aspect of daily life is monitored.

    The large Muslim Chinese community has resisted coercive "re-education" efforts by the authorities, which have progressively restricted religious minorities from observing the basic articles of their faith.

    A United Nations panel estimated recently that China has detained as many as one million Uighurs in internment camps and re-education programmes.

    This includes programmes that focus on psychological indoctrination. There have been reports of water boarding and other forms of torture as well. The detained also include over 50 wives of Pakistanis.

    Early this year, the Gilgit-Baltistan Legislative Assembly through a unanimous resolution urged the federal government to take urgent steps for the release of over 50 Chinese wives of G-B men detained in Xinjiang province of China. The Pakistanis most of them doing import and export businesses between Pakistan and China are married to Muslim women. The Chinese police arrested these women last year and earlier.

    The Chinese government’s alleged repression of ethnic Uighurs mostly Sunni Muslim under an anti-extremism initiative has attracted strong criticism from west and US lawmakers are pushing the Trump administration to sanction Chinese officials for human rights abuses against the Uighur community. China however rejected the allegations of keeping one million Uighurs in internment camps and said that some people underwent re-education after being deceived by extremists

    China rejects reports Pak minister discussed Xinjiang Muslims with envoy
    September 23, 2018

    ISLAMABAD: Chinese Embassy in Pakistan has categorically rejected the baseless and distorted reports of some local and international media in connection with the courtesy meeting held between China Ambassador to Pakistan Yao Jing and Minister for Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony Dr Noor-ul-Haq Qadri last week.

    'Pakistan has demanded China to soften restrictions on Chinese Muslims living in Xinjiang province,' some media outlets claimed.

    According to a press release issued by Chinese Embassy here on Sunday, the Xinjiang Autonomous Region of China enjoys social stability, sound economic development and harmonious coexistence among ethnic groups.

    Some measures are taken against separatism and terrorism for the sake of safeguarding China’s national security and protecting people’s life and property.

    Ambassador Yao Jing had a courtesy call on Dr Noor-ul-Haq Qadri, Minister for Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony of Pakistan on Wednesday, September 19, 2018 and both the sides had a good discussion on China-Pakistan relations including the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) cooperation and some specific projects in Pakistan.

    Dring the meeting, the Chinese Ambassador appreciated the efforts by the Pakistani Government to promote religious harmony, on which both the two sides had full consensus.

    USA and Pakistan played with this virus in 1980s Afghan jihad. You got 9/11. Pakistan, well you already know about extremism emgulfing the country and at one point was knocking on the doors of the capital Islamabad. Lesson: This virus needs quaranting and then erasing. You in USA should be supporting this. You have no idea how malignant this virus is. It even has infected British Pakistani's 5,000 miles distant living in prosperous, safe and secure Britain.

    We will help each resolve the issues both countries are facing. It is more like a family matter where brothers help each other ... If China is facing some extremism, definitely Pakistan would like to help and vice-versa.

    You really believe hundred of thousands or even millions have been infected with this "virus" and need "cleansing". Who deserves to have their children thrown in orphanages??

    China did the Tianenmen Square massacre.

    On their own people.

    If anything here, I believe they are going about things with kid gloves.

    For China, that is.

    India and China have huge traction on this. It might eventually even bring the two behemoths closer together.

    Let us see.

    Cheers, Doc

    Bacche why the potty mouth?

    Not capable of a discussion without abuse?

    Sorry for being a tad Parsi elitist here, but this is why landyas get a bad name around the world.

    Very basti class.

    Cheers, Doc
