China has decided to air an Arabic TV Channel directed to the Arabic region , the new Arabic Channel will be another member to the CCTV family . There is already an English CCTV Channel on the Nile Sat.
Of course you do not have to think too much to realize that China has decided to open a Channel directed to the Arabic region because of the latest Uighur uprising. China knows the damage it has done and that it became from these countries that mistreat Muslims in time Muslims are very extremely angry. China due to its rivalry status with America has won a powerful position in the region especially for the blacklisted countries like Syria and Sudan , especially Sudan and now despite its fear on the national security it fears on its relations with the Muslim world too. Our rulers did not act nor the people whom some of them were introduced to Uighur minority for the first time and felt so angry to know that there are Muslim brothers and sisters treated in such way from someone regarded as a friend !! Yet one those people can act again in future uprisings.
China does not want to be like America to be hated by Muslims because their countries are very very profitable to them , imagine that suddenly a fatwa comes out telling Muslims to boycott the Chinese products in solidarity with the Uighurs !! Believe me the Chinese gave it a thought and thus it found it much cheaper to handle the situation from the early beginning and to launch their own Channel in order to send the images they want.
Already their PR in the Muslim world has started its mention to beautify Beijing from the Uighur’s blood.
China won’t be the first country in the world trying to reach for the Arab population ; we got BBC Arabic , Russia Today, France 24 , Euro news, DW TV and of course the big fiasco of Washington Al-Hurra.
The question will be asked in the end :
Will CCTV Arabic will be the Chinese version of BBC Arabic in success or Chinese version of Al-Hurra in failure ??
Speaking about Uighurs and their ethnic roots to Turkey ,I would like to share with you this very interesting post.
by the way, why you turned a blind eye toward the massacre happening to Muslims in China? why you never bloged about it?
