KATHMANDU, April 19 (Xinhua) — A German scholar has recently found that the right to education for Uygurs and people of other ethnic groups is well protected in China’s Xinjiang region, as young people there enjoy increasingly better opportunities.
Michael Heinrich, who has been teaching German in Minzu University of China for more than five years, said in an article published on Online Khabar news website in March that he has “paid close attention to the development of Chinese education in recent years, especially the education situation in ethnic minority areas.”
Heinrich said he has taught a Xinjiang Uygur student, who often talks with him about the education situation in her hometown and appreciates government policies on education.
The Uygur student has told Heinrich that she lives in a place where she receives Islamic religious education and China’s nine-year compulsory education, and the Uygur students in Xinjiang can enjoy preferential policies, such as extra points in college entrance examination, special policies for college admissions, and employment policy support.
In recent years, the Chinese government has intensified policy support on education in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and increased investment in educational resources, especially those on vocational education, the article read.
“Through vocational education, more Uyghur Muslim students can enhance their survival skills and work harder by themselves and improve their living standards with these hands,” it said.
For some time, Xinjiang has been plagued by terrorism, religious extremism and separatism, according to the passage, and carrying out vocational education and training in Xinjiang is an effective measure to promote the rule of law and a practical action to protect the vital interests of people of all ethnic groups there.
It is also a just move in fighting extremism and terrorism to contribute to the stability in Xinjiang, it added.
Some Western media outlets as well as some U.S. politicians often slander the Chinese government under the guise of “human rights,” which does not only disregard the facts but also interferes with China’s sovereignty, Heinrich pointed out.
The situation in Xinjiang that they saw was completely different from the stories told by some Western politicians and media, Heinrich quoted some people who have visited Xinjiang and witnessed its development as saying.
The rights to life and development of people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang are protected to the largest extent, Heinrich added.

BEIJING, April 15 (Xinhua) — The Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee has published regulations on the work of leading Party members groups.
The 45-article regulations were updated from a trial version issued in June 2015.
The CPC Central Committee has also issued a circular demanding the implementation of the regulations.
The revisions fully embody the theoretical, practical and institutional innovations in the work of leading Party members groups in recent years, the circular said, adding that the revisions were made in accordance with the new situations, tasks and requirements of their work.
It demanded strict implementation of the regulations to make sure that leading Party members groups uphold General Secretary Xi Jinping’s core status, as well as the authority of the CPC Central Committee and its centralized, unified leadership.
The circular said leading Party members groups should take the implementation of the decisions and deployments of the CPC Central Committee as the prerequisite in carrying out work.
A leading Party members group is a leading body set up by the Party in the leadership of the central and local state organs, people’s organizations, economic and cultural institutions, as well as other non-Party organizations.
The regulations have eight chapters including the general provisions, the establishment, duties and organizational principles of leading Party members groups, as well as the rules of their decision-making and supervision.
In a press release, an official with the General Office of the CPC Central Committee spoke of the importance and necessity of the revised regulations.
The official said the regulations reflect new requirements on Party building in the new era and are key to addressing prominent issues in the work of the leading Party members groups and strengthen the institutional guarantees for their work.
There are over 102,000 leading Party members groups from central to county levels nationwide, the official said.
The regulations will help ensure that the CPC always remains a strong leadership core in the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics, the official added.
An editorial to be published by the People’s Daily on Tuesday hailed the issuance of the regulations, saying the establishment of leading Party members groups is an arrangement based on Chinese reality and fully demonstrates the unique political, organizational and institutional strength of the Party.
