Our trading partner, who buys all of our iron ore for its vast war machine, is treating Tibet a wee bit unfairly, with tyranny. But, having been punished before for speaking out over the Wuhan flu, little old Oz better keep quiet, selling its resources. I can’t wait until every bloody thing is gone, and we live again.
“An explosive new report has revealed China has pushed hundreds of thousands of Tibetan farmers into a mass labour program, sparking fresh fears of human rights abuses.
Renowned US-based researcher Adrian Zenz, an expert in the troubled region, released the report this week after analysing official government documents.
His report, which was published on the Jamestown Foundation website, claims more than half a million “rural surplus labourers” had been funnelled into factories in the first seven months of 2020 after undergoing “military-style” vocational training.
It is part of a government push to reform “backward thinking” and “dilute the negative influence of religion” according to government documents mentioned in the report, with China dictating the state must “stop raising up lazy people”.
Tibetan rural workers are also pushed to give up their land and livestock to the government and instead take up jobs with regular salaries.
Dr Zenz alleged it was likely some were being funnelled into the “draconian scheme” against their will.
“There are clear elements of coercion during recruitment, training and job matching, as well as a centralised and strongly state-administered and supervised transfer process,” Dr Zenz wrote.”
