Australian Think Tank just released Study: 83 Internationally Known Companies Profit from Chinese Muslim Slave Labor

"As many as 83 internationally known brands – including [b]Nike, BMW, Apple, Sony, Google, Lacoste, and Nintendo –[/b] have active ties to factories where evidence suggests the Communist Party has shipped Uyghur Muslims to engage in forced labor."

Breitbart.com) is an American far-right[6] syndicated news, opinion and commentary website.
Its journalists are widely considered to be ideologically driven, and some of its content has been called misogynistic, xenophobic, and racist by liberals and many traditional conservatives alike.

I checked out the article.
The "Australian think tank" referred to turns out to be an Australian Government agency, The Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI).
It was founded in 2001 by the right-wing Prime Minister, John Howard, to provide "policy-relevant research and analysis to better inform Government decisions and public understanding of strategic and defence issues".
It has continued since then through several changes of right and left wing governments, and does provide research analysis based on solid evidence.

In this case the ASPI has done a great deal of research into the Chinese persecution of Muslim minorities in China's outlying territories. From satellite images, and from asylum seekers who escaped their countries, we do know that there are concentration camps designed to break the faith of Muslims and convert them into obedient citizens.
The ASPI does think that, once brainwashed, these citizens are being shipped away from their former homes to work in factories spread all over China, against their will. [i]The ASPI makes no claims of slavery[/i].

It is probable that the workers are paid very low wages and do not have the ability to return to their homes and families.

People who have ethical considerations about what products they buy, would do better to buy what is manufactured on home soil, or if buying from Asia, buy from Japan or South Korea where quality is excellent and wages are fair.

Hu Jintao is an evil man. And any criticism he huffs and puffs and threatens as though he already controls the world. What an ugly world he is creating.

@4meAndyou What a fantastic man. Many good insights.

I've been thinking the same thing. Economic blockade is the only language they understand. We sold out to China because they were cheap and had been very peaceful and cooperative. It's the only language they will comprehend.

Speaking of Nintendo. Nintendo Inc should've sued the crap out of the Chinese Market making all these Knock-offs gaming systems and handhelds full of None Copy-right NES Games and re-edit them. I think there should be a law against it but the CCP Wouldn't care less
