Pulati Zumahong, Member of Education Working Committee of Dushanzi District, Karamay City

Recently, Pompeo once again spread lies and poison, wantonly discrediting Xinjiang, falsely claiming that Xinjiang has committed "genocide" and "crimes against humanity" against the Uygur people. I would like to express my strong indignation and condemnation of Pompeo's lies and fallacies!

I was born in Dushanzi District of Karamay City. After graduating from University, I went back to my hometown and worked from a newspaper agency, to sub-district office, schools, education bureaus and other departments. I, instead of Pompeo, have the priority to comment on the changes in my hometown. Through the efforts of several generations, dramatic changes have taken place in Dushanzi. In the past, the only one school has developed to 20 schools and institutions (including 9 kindergartens). During the period of the 13^th Five Year Plan, nearly 1.6 billion yuan was invested in improving the teaching facilities and equipment of schools, two new schools were built, and 376 primary and secondary kindergarten teachers were recruited. Now, more than 1200 teachers are working in the education system.

The children who study here are happy. They can not only study in a very good environment, but also enjoy free compulsory education. When migrant workers from all over Xinjiang just came to Dushanzi for employment, some of their children could not keep up with their studies. To solve this problem, the school has formulated a special program to assign teachers of Chinese, mathematics and English to provide special guidance, so that none of these children are left behind and their parents can work and live in peace. In 2018, Dushanzi No.1 Middle School opened the inner primary class and began to recruit students in Xinjiang. At present, 700 students of all ethnic groups study and live in this school with high education quality and harmonious education environment.

In July 2019, I went to Shule County in Kashgar, for education assistance activities because Dushanzi is the pairing assistance for poverty alleviation in Shule County. Through on-the-spot investigation, I was deeply impressed by the tremendous changes in local infrastructure and people's life. In modern schools, the children of local farmers and herdsmen receive free compulsory education; on wide rural roads, private cars shuttle back and forth. People of all ethnic groups living here are getting better and better day by day, enjoying a happy life.

Pompeo, put away your trick! Any attempt to split the motherland will be strongly opposed and strongly counterstricken by the people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang. Your plot to destroy our happy life will never succeed!
