"We get up at five in the morning and we have to make the bed, it has to be perfect. Then you do the ceremony of raising the flag and the oath. Then you go to the canteen to have breakfast and go to class. Then lunch and back to class. Then dinner. And another class. Then to bed. Every night two people have to be on duty for two hours [watching the rest of the classmates]. There's not a minute for you. It's exhausting". This is the story of a Uighur woman in one of the "re-education" camps, as the Chinese government defines these internment centers for the Uighur Muslim minority. In fact, all the journeys the woman describes to class or to the canteen are escorted by armed guards, who apply physical punishments if they disobey or if they speak in their language instead of Mandarin Chinese. This woman was detained and taken to the internment camp because she was found to have downloaded the WhatsApp application on her mobile phone.
