Four things you should know about exiled Uighur leader Rebiya

1. She had 11 children, which confirms that Uighurs were not subject to
China's One Child Policy.

2. She was born to a family with no background. She started her business
with a road side convenience store and worked her way to be THE richest
person in the province of Xinjiang. This proved Uighur can earn their
business success through hard work.

3. She was a senior member of the People's Congress of Xinjiang, and a senior
member of the National People's Congress of China. This shows Uighur were
not excluded from political life in China.

4. She was arrested because she provided funding to Eastern Turkestan and
carried out activities in China following instructions from Eastern
Turkestan. Eastern Turkestan is labeled as terrorist organization by most
countries including the US, Russia, China, etc.
