LG Wang | 13 years ago | Reply To Jai: Please do not mix different things together and treat them as if they were one. It's stupid to do so. China only crushes those secessionists, not Uighr muslims. Uighur muslims are Chinese nationals, and China treat them equally as all the other Chinese citizens so long as they don't engage in secession. Sino-Pakistani relationship is ever-lasting, and no matter how you disparage it, it won't change. We love our Pakistani friends.
