    Congratulations to , and Christo Buschek of .

    It's hard to wrap my head around how much has happened – and how much Hong Kong has changed – in the past two years.

    I don’t think I’ve seen this many people in my life.

    +1. Fact checking personal accounts of Xinjiang’s ex detainees is tough, but journalists have methods incl checking the consistency of stories, locations where events took place & documentation. I wonder what approach the journalist who worked on this book and the publisher took.

    Sayragul Sauytbay makes some wild claims in her new book on surviving a reeducation camp in Xinjiang. The claims don't at all accord with those she made at her extradition trial in Kazakhstan, which I attended. Call me incredulous. I'm upset the claims are now being amplified.
