Providing employment to over 13 million people in Xinjiang is a "reaffirmation that the people of Xinjiang are equal to all other Chinese citizens in terms of full rights and duties," said Mohamed Noman Galal, a former Egyptian Ambassador to China who have visited Xinjiang several times and talked to many local people.

BEIJING, Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- China's white paper on the employment and labor rights in Xinjiang shows the effectiveness of measures taken by the Chinese government to promote employment and protect labor rights in Xinjiang, refuting unfounded accusations with concrete facts and figures, international experts have said.

The white paper, titled "Employment and Labor Rights in Xinjiang," was released by China's State Council Information Office on Thursday.

Bishnul Rijal, deputy chief of International Department and member of the Nepal Communist Party Central Committee, said the white paper clearly shows China's people-centered development policy and its absolute commitment to the well-being of its people.

It is unacceptable that Xinjiang-related issues are politicized or hyped with the ill-intention to defame China, said the expert on international affairs.
