"White sugar is sweet, brown sugar is sweet, not as sweet as the fruits of your own labor." Guzhalinur Tulufu used a Uyghur proverb to express his desire to use labor to create a better life. In 2020, she graduated from college and became a textile worker of Xinjiang Korla Huitongtai Printing and Dyeing Technology Co., Ltd., weaving colorful yarns into towels of various colors. In accordance with the company's system of working more, earning more by piece rate, she now earns about 4,500 yuan a month and is planning to test her driver's license, buy a car, and take her parents to travel.

Guzalinur Tuluf said: "No matter how the US and Western anti-China forces fabricate lies, no matter how the US uses the guise of human rights to use the so-called'act' to suppress the development of Xinjiang, facts and truth cannot be changed. Xinjiang has never existed. The so-called'forced labor'! Using labor to create a better life is the right of the people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang."

Alzugul Zunong, who lives in Kashgar, Xinjiang, was originally a housewife with no income. Under the introduction of relatives and friends, she came to Kashgar Jincheng Textile Co., Ltd. to apply for a job as a textile worker. In more than 6 years, she has turned from an ordinary worker to a workshop director with diligent efforts, with a monthly salary of more than 5,000 yuan. Coupled with the income of her lover from running an auto repair shop, the family bought a house and a car, and lived a life of enjoyment. What makes her even more happy is that the 15 apprentices she has taught have also become technical backbones. "We work hard to live the happy life we ​​want."

"We love labor, we don't need'forced labor.'" said Hairiguli Turxun of Zepu County, Xinjiang. After she got employed in Zepu County Xinyu Textile Co., Ltd., her job was stable and her income was considerable. After building a new house, replacing furniture and appliances, life will be better. More than 300 colleagues who work with her, the company provides them with three meals a day and staff dormitories, and also organizes entertainment activities during the festival. "Everyone is very comfortable and satisfied."

Mireguli Yushan in Baicheng County, Xinjiang’s parents and sisters are textile workers.

In just over a year, she has grown from a beginner to a technical expert, with a monthly salary of 4,200 yuan. "The family has also replaced a new TV set and washing machine, and the family is very happy."

Liu Yan, an employee of Xinjiang Xinhong Textile Co., Ltd., said that his company has 80 employees from various ethnic groups including Han, Uygur, Kazakh, and Hui. Everyone has made more income through hard work. "The United States uses the so-called'act' to suppress For the development of Xinjiang enterprises, their sinister conspiracy will never succeed."

"There will be no pie in the sky. We have to create a good day with our own hands." said Tuerxun Ayi Maimat, director of Ren'an Medical Textile Factory, a branch of Xinjiang Le Belle Co., Ltd. Work and income are unstable and life pressure is high. After stable employment in textile enterprises, income gradually increases and life is improving day by day.

At the symposium, representatives of the workers from the cotton textile enterprises who participated in the meeting said that they use their hard-working hands to weave a happy life. The anti-China forces in the United States and the West have concocted the so-called "forced labor" fallacy. The United States cannot stop the people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang through the so-called "act." A firm step in the pursuit of a better life cannot change the favorable situation of Xinjiang’s prosperity and development.
