@ebolmao4129 What makes you think Chinese people lack basic human rights? Chinese people are free to travel overseas for work, study or play. Everyone has heard of Chinese tourists, visiting your countries and spending money on your economies. Your Western schools and universities are positively flooded with Chinese international students, studying the same topics as their peers. Chinese companies like Huawei, Xiaomi, ZTE, Oppo, etc, are expanding overseas, and Chinese investors are buying up real estate and property in your countries.

China now world's biggest source of international students scmp.com/news/china/society/article/1797429/china-now-worlds-biggest-source-international-students-more
So what makes you think Chinese people lack basic rights? Chinese people can be found virtually all over the globe today, since we make up a fifth of the world's population after all. Go to your neighborhood and how many Chinese can you spot in your area? Or go to your local university and ask your local students how they feel about the "Chinese competition."

@ebolmao4129 About Chinese investment project, firstly, China runs a business, not a charity drive. Western countries have been pouring donations into African countries, yet they don't solve the problem of poverty in Africa. Whereas China was once a dirt-poor, war-torn, starving country similar to many African countries, but we found success through infrastructure like roads, railways, highways, powerstations, dams, ports, airports, etc, so China is offering to do the same in African countries to help lift them out of poverty, in exchange for resources. This is done through proper business transactions, not by pointing guns at them like what Westerners been doing to Africa.
Thanks to Chinese efforts, African leaders earn legitimacy through Chinese partnerships. They work together with the Chinese to provide Africa with key structural infrastructure fundamentals which will help Africa avoid the "resource curse" (having plenty of resources, but still being poor) Success in this endeavor means avoiding the exploitation of their natural wealth and the beginning of fundamental social and economic transformations on the continent.

@ryanmeinecke8260 Look at the West and they are bending over backwards in order to accommodate Muslims immigrants. These refugees are fleeing their own conflict-ridden Islamic countries, and flooding the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, etc, and instead of adapting to their predominantly Christian host countries, they continue their traditions, like Muslim men marrying multiple wives or Muslim women wearing Muslim headveil out in public.
Secretly, many Westerners are angry that Muslims are under little pressure to assimilate into their host country, but they can't voice their true opinions for fear of being branded as "racists" (even though Islam is not a race) or "Islamophobe" because of the culture of "politically correctness" in the West.
Whereas China has no qualms about taking necessary measures to ensure that Muslims in China respect China's laws and assimilate into Chinese culture, learn Chinese history and sing patriotic songs about China.

@rangzera3162 The West is bending over backwards to accommodate Islam. Muslim refugees are fleeing their own conflict-ridden Islamic countries, and then flooding the Western countries like United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany, etc, and the Muslims are under little pressure to change their ways and adapt to their predominantly Christian host countries, much to the chagrin of local Westerners.
Instead of assimilating into Western countries, Muslims continue their traditions like men marrying multiple wives, or women wearing Muslim headveil out in public, and secretly, many Westerners are angry at this, but they can't voice their honest opinions, for fear of being labelled as "racists" (even though Islam is not a race) or "Islamophobe" because of the "politically correctness" culture that is overtaking the West.
Therefore, the Muslims take Westerner's silence as acceptance of their traditions.

And the Muslims take Westerner's silence as acceptance of their ways so they are under little pressure to assimilate. Because the West lets them do whatever they want!

@ALex T My command of the English language may be atrocious, but that has little to do with this discussion is it not? If you want to discuss putting people into prison, then it is America that has the world's largest prison incarceration rate. Source: wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_incarceration_rate
U.S prisons are so full and packed to overcapacity, that the U.S government is forced to release convicts back on to the streets, in order to ease the overcrowded situation of its prisons. Having such a huge prison population also represents a significant drain on the country's resources for upkeep and maintenance. Worst thing is that many former convicts find it tough to reintegrate back into proper society, and many return to life of crime to make ends meet, and wound up behind bars once again.
The Chinese government is providing Uighurs extremists (and potential extremists) a chance to turn away from their extremist beliefs, to receive a proper Chinese education, learn glorious Chinese history and to sing patriotic Chinese songs to cultivate a sense of nationalism and belonging to China. Once these Uighurs graduate, they'll have a broader range of opportunities to find work due to their proficiency in Mandarin Chinese, which is the language of business in China.

@allgoo1964 Hong Kong and mainland China are not at "war" and while the PLA is garrisoned at Hong Kong, it has not been activated thus far. As for China's borders China has settled boundary dispute approximately of 20,000 km with 12 countries out of the 22,000 km and is yet to settle about 2,000 km of boundary involving India and Bhutan.
-In 1961, Nepal and China signed border agreement.
-In 1962, Mongolia and China signed border agreement.
-In 1963, Afghanistan and China signed border agreement.
-In 1963, Pakistan and China signed border agreement.
-In 1991, USSR and China signed Sino-Soviet border agreement.
-In 1992, Laos and China signed border agreement.
-In 1994, Kazakhstan and China signed border agreement.
-In 2011, Tajikistan ratified 1999 deal with China and signed border agreement.
For your China claiming 23 countries territories, Singapore doesn't even claim the South China Seas, so why is it counted among the 23 countries you tell me? Your source is clearly biased and you didn't bother to properly verify all those countries.

About the barbed wire, it is meant to protect our kindergarteners from possible trespassers and kidnappers who might attempt to harm the kids or the staff. Just take a look at the recent chemical attack at a kindergarten in Yunnan, China, injuring 51 children and staff.
More than 50 people, mostly children, were injured by a man who broke into a kindergarten in southwest China and sprayed them with corrosive liquid, local authorities said Tuesday (Nov 12).
Source: 51 children injured in chemical attack at China kindergarten channelnewsasia.com/news/asia/china-kindergarten-chemical-attack-kaiyuan-city-yunnan-12086288
The suspect, a 23-year-old surnamed Kong, entered the kindergarten by climbing a wall before spraying victims with sodium hydroxide, said local authorities in Kaiyuan city, Yunnan province.
Therefore, barbed wire is an additional form of protection for the kids to stop illegal trespassers and kidnappers from harming the kids and staff.
