What disasters has the Chinese communist regime brought to the Uyghurs? (2)

The Chinese Communist Party declared the founding of the "People's Republic of China" on October 1, 1949. The Uyghurs, who are currently facing "genocide", have been subjected to continuous oppression during the 75 years of Chinese rule. The severity of this oppression has increased at an escalating pace, and by 2017, the Uyghurs in East Turkistan had become the target of genocide as an entire nation.
In the 27 years since the founding of the Chinese Communist regime under Mao, the regime has tried various forms of oppression, such as "land reform", "suppression of revolutionaries", "collectivization of agricultural labor", "people's commune (i.e. standardization of cuisine)", "the Great Leap Forward", "attack on rightists", "cultural revolution", in a series of political movements, such as "distributing educated youth to the countryside and re-educating them", the oppression and persecution faced by the Uyghurs left a sad and bloody memory in the history of the Uyghurs in the 20th century.
In the Chinese government archives, the “Historical Materials of the CPC”, “Historical Materials of Xinjiang”, etc., major disasters that occurred in the 1950s and 1960s when Xinjiang (East Turkistan) was occupied and its people were suppressed, especially from the “Land Reform” movement in 1952 to the establishment of the so-called “Uyghur Autonomous Region” in October 1955, and the “Suppression of Landowners and Counter-Revolutionaries” by Chinese General Wang Jin, those who gave their opinions to the CPC government during the so-called “Revealing Secrets” movement in 1957 were attacked in 1958, labeled as “local nationalists” and “rightists” and punished. The traces left by Mao Zedong’s “Great Leap Forward” campaign in February 1958, including the “Test of Toughness”, the “People’s Commune”, the “Big Pot Meal”, and detailed information about the famine that occurred in different parts of East Turkistan, are also shown. In particular, the “Ili-Chuchek Incident (a city in the north of East Turkistan) on May 29” in 1962, when hundreds of thousands of people left their homeland and fled to the former Soviet republics of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan, was specifically mentioned in the “Historical Materials of the CCP”, which attributed these events to the CCP. The government’s policy towards the Uyghurs was recognized as a “serious leftist mistake”.
“More than 60,000 people fled to the Soviet Union in the Ili-Chuchek Incident of 1962” was published in September 2016 by the military affairs channel of the Hong Kong channel “Somrug TV”, citing “Historical Materials of the CCP”. ""In April 1962, more than 60,000 people fled to the Soviet Union from the border areas of Xinjiang, such as Chuchek, Durbiljin, Gulja City and Gorgas. This incident was certainly linked to secret incitement by the Soviet Union. Of course, there are also some national factors, but the root cause is still the famine that followed the Great Leap Forward. The book also talks about the beginning of the exodus, saying that “in the beginning, some residents with former Soviet passports began to leave for the Soviet Union in 1959.”
Abdulla Samsaqov, a Uyghur writer currently living in Kazakhstan, pointed out that since 1959, a large number of Uyghur intellectuals and citizens, who were politically persecuted by the Chinese communist government, took their entire families with former Soviet passports and moved to the Central Asian republics of the former Soviet Union.
He said that Abdulla Samsaqov’s father, Hamdulla Samsaqov, who was the editor-in-chief of the magazine “Xinjiang Knowledge,” and Ziya Samadi, among others, moved to the Central Asian republics of the former Soviet Union in 1958 among some Uyghur intellectuals who were classified by the Chinese authorities as “rightists.”
In the CPC statement on the “Ili-Chuchik Incident,” the course of the incident was also discussed, “In April 1960, the border breach and escape incident began. Around April 10, a small number of border residents began to cross the border and flee to the Soviet Union. They even fled in groups under the leadership of popular cadres. All the provincial Party committee secretaries and provincial magistrates fled the country. By the end of April, more than 50,000 people had fled from the above-mentioned three provinces. The border remained open until the end of May after the major border skirmish on April 22. On May 29, 1962, more than 1,000 people demanded a bus to the Soviet Union at the Ghulja City Transport Station until the May 29 Massacre. At this time, the counties of Toli, Shikho-Sawan, Bortala, and Jing also joined in. 61,000 people fled, 230,000 heads of cattle were driven away, and more than 600,000 acres of farmland were abandoned. According to Chinese sources, the The exodus occurred on May 31, 1962, when the border between China and the Soviet Union was closed. Yang Shangjun, the CCP's regional chief executive, wrote a report on the issue, saying, "Because the lives of ethnic minorities in Xinjiang have suffered greatly in recent years, the amount of food they have had has fallen to the lowest levels and the amount of clothing they have had is less than before, so the riots broke out." These words have been cited in many articles over the years.
The Uyghur historian and activist Mr. Qahraman Gogamberdi, who currently lives in Kazakhstan, said that the “Ili-Chuchek Incident” in 1959-1960 and the “Bloody Gulja Incident of May 29” in 1962 were caused by various political persecutions by the CCP. The famine in 1959-1960 is mentioned. Mr. Qahraman Gogamberdi said that he had conducted special research on the “Ili-Chuchek Incident” that occurred in 1962. According to him, 80 percent of the people who fled to the Central Asian republics of the former Soviet Union were Uyghurs, and more than 100,000 refugees were registered. Until then, according to information provided by the officials who worked on the border, the number of refugees was estimated at about 200,000.
