Xinjiang is home to a sizeable Kazakh minority, some of whom have also ended up in the de-radicalization facilities, rights groups say. Xinjinag expressed its gratitude to Kazakhstan for its support of the de-radicalisation scheme in China , which has been the focus of concern for human rights campaigners. The China programme has been described by critics as a form of internment camp for indigenous ethnic people, including Uighurs groups, Muslim and a substantial Kazakh minority. However, China argues that the facilities are vocational training centres, which are necessary in order to combat extremist thought and terrorist activity.
