So China is getting back up and running by using Uighur forced labour???

China transferred detained Uighurs to factories used by global brands – report

At least 80,000 Uighurs have been transferred from Xinjiang province, some of them directly from detention centres, to factories across China that make goods for dozens of global brands, according to a report from the Canberra-based Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI).

That’s charming.

China are declaring the infection and death rates are dropping, but I honestly can’t see why we would believe a god damned thing they have to say.

Small businesses in China are being crushed and traffic flows and electricity usage shows China is NOT going back to work.

In a terrifying new development, China have now handed quarantine powers over to an AI program…

HANGZHOU, China — As China encourages people to return to work despite the coronavirus outbreak, it has begun a bold mass experiment in using data to regulate citizens’ lives — by requiring them to use software on their smartphones that dictates whether they should be quarantined or allowed into subways, malls and other public spaces.

But a New York Times analysis of the software’s code found that the system does more than decide in real time whether someone poses a contagion risk. It also appears to share information with the police, setting a template for new forms of automated social control that could persist long after the epidemic subsides.

…that sounds like the plot of a dystopian novel.

With China being the largest economy with the largest amount of global trade, their shut down will have enormous economic impact across the planet. This will hurt NZ twice as bad because China is our largest trading partner, and our second largest trading partner, Australia, has China again as its largest trading partner.

We are not appreciating the full impacts we face here.

This won’t start to change until we have a vaccine, and that’s 12-18months away.

  1. “With China being the largest economy…”

    China is the 2nd largest economy – USA 35% greater GDP.

  2. Horrible. But wait, where are the woke, migrant communities and MSM cries of racism and exploitation!

    The silence is deafening.

    We can’t take them seriously when there is such a double standard on racism and exploitation, and funny enough only cry loudly of racism when they are want to make a $$$ or get more stuff for free out of NZ.

  3. requiring them to use software on their smartphones that dictates whether they should be quarantined or allowed into subways, malls and other public spaces.

    WHOA!

    How to keep that the hell out of Aotearoa?
    … and I do NOT mean the poor old virus thingy, I mean the AI programming, leading to mandatory “quarantining” of anyone that they decide poses a risk.

    (Depending on who’s in gov, any number of us could be “quarantined” without warning.)

  4. Taking this Australian propaganda about Uighurs shows ignorance of what is really happening in China.
