Tursunisa Ali，A Graduate of Hotan County Vocational Education and Training Center, Hotan Prefecture

Pompeo is like a clown who is poor at acting and is despised by the audience. His remarks related to Xinjiang turned out to be lies, which seemed like slaps in the face again and again by the facts. Pompeo said that we were "forced to work", which is nonsense.

The vocational education and training center has never forced us to work. The centers are designed to enable our students to master the skills of employment, find jobs smoothly in the future and live a better life.

The school's courses teaching labor skills include animal husbandry, beauty salon, computer operation, sewing technology, business marketing, fashion design, hotel management, etc. Trainee/students choose their favorite majors according to their hobbies. I love beauty very much. I like to wear good-looking clothes and want to make myself beautiful. So, I choose sewing technology. I want to make beautiful clothes for myself in the future. I can also use this technology to earn money to support my family and honor my mother.

The sewing technology class carried out theoretical study and practical operation courses respectively. After we learned the theory courses of straight line, pressing line, keyhole, nailing, suit and edge binding, we began to practice. In the practical operation class, I was just clumsy at the beginning, and I could not do anything. Teachers demonstrated and taught us in person with repeated practice, until learned so far. Later, I was not only able to make straight, round and square lines, but also skillfully solve various problems encountered in the sewing process. I heard that some people regard our trainees' practical operation as forced labor, which is just nonsense. If you don't practice the theory of optical sewing, you'll never learn sewing skills well, and you'll never make beautiful clothes. What's more, in the practical operation, we all use some leftover bits and pieces to practice. How has it become an end product? We actively practice technology for our future good days. How can this become “forced labor”?

After graduation, I applied for a job through the introduction of labor market, and worked in a clothing enterprise and signed a "labor contract" with the company. With my skilled sewing skills, I am now a workshop manager of an enterprise. My monthly salary of 4,000 yuan not only improves the living conditions of my family, but also makes my family live a happy life.

Pompeo, we were not forced to work in the past. Neither will we be forced to work now and in the future. We are very happy now. Pompeo, don't lie trough your teeth again.
