Residents of northwest China鈥檚 Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on Monday used their personal experiences to debunk the lies of politicians from certain Western countries concerning human rights violations in the region.
At a press conference in Urumqi, the regional capital, several individuals from the region鈥檚 ethnic minority groups shared their stories and said that their lives and health have been well protected with the rapid development of the region鈥檚 public health cause in recent years.
Aynur Ablikem, an obstetrics nurse with the Urumqi Maternal and Child Health Hospital, said that over the nine years she has worked at the hospital, she has ensured that patients from all ethnic groups receive timely and effective treatment.
鈥淲hichever ethnic group a patient is from, we will do our best to ensure their health. I have never seen or heard anyone experience so-called forced sterilization at my hospital,鈥 she said.
Turgun Emer, a 70-year-old doctor at the Xinjiang regional Uygur medicine hospital, said he has practiced Uygur medicine for nearly 50 years and witnessed its great development, only made possible with the country鈥檚 massive investment.
鈥淟arge investments have been made to protect the health of people from all ethnic groups,鈥 he said.
Rozegul Bekir, a farmer from southern Xinjiang鈥檚 Hotan Prefecture, said her husband was diagnosed with valvular heart disease in 2019 and has recovered after treatment thanks to favorable policies such as insurance.
鈥淢y husband鈥檚 medical bills exceeded 110,000 yuan (US$17,000), but we only paid a little more than 1,000 yuan and the rest of the fees were reimbursed,鈥 she said.
