Listen to this man carefully: "It's not really that I stand up for China, it's I stand against people who are wrong about China." What an honest, righteous gentleman! My respect and appreciation.

Xinjiang is huge and has incredible nature and scenery, definitely worth the extra security. Last visited Xinjiang in the spring of 2019 to visit my ailing father inlaw, aside from the extra security we enjoyed the visit. To the contrary we felt much safer because of the security. Jerry mentioned that Xinjiang is multi ethnic and that is part of the attraction, the Uyghur restaurants, food shops and people are wonderful. The Uyghur are thriving and it was amazing to see the changes since my last visit in 2013, they seem to have moved up the economic ladder like the other ethnic groups and Han. Jerry didn't mention that the security forces are also multi ethnic and have many Uighars that are often in senior positions of authority. Sadly, like Jerry I've had family and friends literally attack me when I speak of China honestly. I had to endure some very nutty abuse on the phone where they would yell vitriolic hatred towards a country they have never visited and call me brainwashed. Why were they hurling abuse towards me is even more sad, it was early March and I was warning them to take the pandemic seriously and sharing the success of the Chineses authorities pandemic measures and Grid Management. My goal was simply to help them avoid getting very sick or dying. Sad to lose friends and family to the non-stop hate propaganda doing its work in west.
