| 二、堅持各民族平等團結 | II. Upholding Ethnic Equality and Unity |
| 新疆維吾爾自治區成立以來，堅持和完善民族區域自治制度，貫徹落實國家的民族政策，努力促進各民族共同團結奮斗、共同繁榮發展，發展和鞏固了平等、團結、互助、和諧的新型社會主義民族關系。 | Since its establishment in 1955, the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has remained committed to supporting and improving the system of ethnic regional autonomy. It has implemented China's ethnic policies, endeavored to promote the unity and common prosperity of various ethnic groups, and developed and consolidated the new type of socialist ethnic relations of equality, unity, mutual assistance and harmony. |
| 堅持各民族一律平等。在中國，各民族不論人口多少、發展程度高低，都具有同等地位，依法享有相同的權利，履行相同的義務。民族區域自治制度的建立，實現了保護少數民族合法權益和保障公民個人平等權利相統一。新疆各族人民享有平等的法律地位，享有憲法和法律賦予的選舉與被選舉的權利，同時還享有參與國家事務管理、宗教信仰自由、接受教育、使用本民族語言文字、繼承本民族傳統文化等各項權利。自治區著力消除歷史遺留下來的民族隔閡，堅決反對任何形式的民族壓迫和歧視，禁止破壞民族團結和制造民族分裂的行為。各級自治地方既尊重和保護本地區各民族的權利，同時還擔負著維護國家統一、民族團結、社會穩定的責任。 | The principle of equality among all ethnic groups has been upheld. All ethnic groups in China, regardless of the sizes of their population and levels of development, are equal. They enjoy equal rights and are required to fulfill the same obligations in accordance with the law. The establishment of the system of ethnic regional autonomy served to protect the legitimate rights and interests of ethnic minorities and safeguard the equal rights and interests of individual citizens. People of all ethnic origins in Xinjiang are ensured an equal legal status. They enjoy the rights to vote and stand for election as prescribed by the Constitution and the law, the right of equal participation in the administration of state affairs, the right of religious belief, the right to receive education, the right to use their own spoken and written languages, the right to inherit and carry on the traditional culture of their own ethnic groups, etc. The region has focused on eliminating ethnic misunderstandings carried over from the past; it has firmly opposed any form of ethnic oppression or discrimination, and outlawed any action that might sabotage ethnic unity or incite ethnic separatism. In addition to respecting and protecting the rights and interests of all ethnic peoples within their jurisdiction, governments of ethnic autonomous areas at various levels shoulder at the same time the responsibility of safeguarding national unification, ethnic unity and social stability. |
| 自主管理本民族、本地區的內部事務。新疆維吾爾自治區是多民族共居的自治地方，也是全國唯一三級自治地方（區、州、縣）俱全的自治區。自治區內設有５個自治州、６個自治縣和42個民族鄉。自治地方的各族人民共同選舉出人民代表大會（以下簡稱“人大”）代表，組成自治機關，行使管理本地區內部事務的權利。自治機關在歷屆人大代表組成以及干部配備上，堅持各民族平等參與、共同管理的原則。2014年，自治區第十二屆人大代表名額共550名，有14個民族成份，其中少數民族代表占66%，比少數民族人口在新疆總人口中的比例高出3個百分點。目前，在9位現任自治區人大常委會主任、副主任中，有少數民族6名。自治區主席、自治州州長、自治縣縣長均由實行區域自治民族的公民擔任，絕大多數地區的專員以及市長、縣長、區長也由少數民族干部擔任。新疆各民族還享有平等參與管理國家事務的權利。2014年，出席第十二屆全國人大的新疆代表共60名，其中少數民族代表38名，占63.33%。還有一批少數民族干部在中央和國家機關中擔任領導職務。 | Internal affairs of the ethnic autonomous areas are administered independently. Home to more than a dozen major ethnic groups, the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is the only autonomous region in China with three levels of autonomous administrative divisions (region, prefecture and county). It boasts five autonomous prefectures, six autonomous counties and 42 ethnic townships. The people of each ethnic autonomous area elect their own deputies to the people's congress and form the self-government organs of power to exercise the right to manage their own internal affairs. In the composition of deputies to the people's congresses and the appointment of officials, the region's self-government organs at each level have always adhered to the principles of equal participation and common management. In 2014, the 550 deputies to the 12th People's Congress of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region came from 14 ethnic groups, with 66 percent being ethnic minorities themselves, three percentage points higher than the proportion of the total population of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang. Of nine chairperson and vice chairpersons of the Standing Committee of the current regional people's congress, six are citizens of ethnic minority origins. In Xinjiang now, the heads of the autonomous region, all the autonomous prefectures and all autonomous counties are citizens from the ethnic group(s) exercising regional autonomy in the areas concerned. Moreover, an overwhelming number of the heads of other prefectures, cities and counties are citizens of ethnic minority origins. Ethnic groups in Xinjiang also enjoy the right of equal participation in the administration of state affairs. Of 60 deputies from Xinjiang who attended the 12th National People's Congress in 2014, 38, or over 63 percent, were ethnic minorities. There are many people of ethnic minority origins from Xinjiang holding leading posts in central and state organs. |
| 根據《中華人民共和國憲法》和《中華人民共和國民族區域自治法》的規定，民族自治地方有權依照當地特點制定自治條例和單行條例，對法律、行政法規、地方性法規作出變通規定。這些規定對保障和維護各少數民族合法權益、促進自治地方經濟社會發展發揮了重要作用。 | According to the Constitution of the People's Republic of China and the Law of the People's Republic of China on Ethnic Regional Autonomy, ethnic autonomous areas have the right to enact autonomous and separate regulations to adapt the provisions of the state law, administrative regulations and local regulations in accordance with their local conditions. These stipulations have played an important role in safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of the ethnic minorities and promoting economic and social development in ethnic autonomous areas. |
| 保障各民族使用和發展本民族語言文字的權利。新疆是多語言文字地區，主要使用10種語言。自治區頒布《新疆維吾爾自治區語言文字工作條例》，少數民族語言文字在司法、行政、教育、新聞出版、廣播影視、網絡等領域以及日常生活中得到廣泛應用。政府機關在執行公務、各類機構在招聘及晉級考試時，使用當地通用的一種或者幾種語言文字。自治區中小學教育共使用7種語言教學，廣播、電視用5種語言播放節目，圖書、音像和電子出版物用6種語言文字出版。根據《中華人民共和國國家通用語言文字法》，普通話和規范漢字為國家通用語言和文字。自治區積極倡導少數民族學習國家通用語言和文字，在中小學對少數民族學生進行通用語言文字教育，提倡各民族相互學習語言，增進各民族間的了解和溝通。自2010年起，自治區要求新錄用公職人員正式上崗前必須具備基本的國家通用語言和少數民族語言能力，并提供培訓“雙語”的機會和條件。 | All ethnic groups are guaranteed the right to use and develop their own spoken and written languages. Xinjiang is a region of multiple spoken and written languages, of which there are ten principal ones. The region has enacted the Regulations for Work Concerning Spoken and Written Languages in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, which provides a legal basis for the extensive use of the spoken and written languages of ethnic minorities in such fields as justice, administration, education, news media, publishing, radio, movies, television programs, the Internet and daily life. Government organs in handling public affairs and various other organizations in recruitment and promotion tests all use the language(s) of the ethnic groups exercising autonomy in a given area. Seven languages are used as teaching languages in primary and secondary schools in the region, five languages are used in broadcasting and television programs, and six languages are used in publishing books, audio-visual products and electronic publications. The Law of the People's Republic of China on the Standard Spoken and Written Chinese Language rules that the standard spoken and written Chinese language is Putonghua (a common speech with pronunciation based on the Beijing dialect) and the standardized Chinese characters. The autonomous region encourages ethnic minorities to study the standard spoken and written Chinese and offers appropriate courses in primary and secondary schools, and it also encourages ethnic minority peoples to study one another's languages so as to enhance mutual understanding and communication. Since 2010, the autonomous region has required that newly recruited civil servants must acquire basic skills in both the standard and ethnic languages before they enter the service, and that they must be provided with opportunities of and conditions for bilingual training. |
| 尊重少數民族風俗習慣，保障各民族保持或者改革本民族風俗習慣的自由。2004年，自治區制定《新疆維吾爾自治區清真食品管理條例》，依法保障有清真飲食習慣民族的飲食習俗，規定縣級以上人民政府民族事務主管部門負責本行政區域內清真食品的監督管理工作。扶持和保證少數民族特需用品的生產和供應。在有土葬習俗的少數民族中，不推行火葬，并采取劃撥專用土地、建立公墓等措施予以保障。少數民族重大節日成為新疆法定公眾假期。自治區提倡各民族相互尊重風俗習慣，倡導少數民族在衣食住行、婚喪嫁娶、禮儀風俗各方面奉行科學、文明、健康的新習俗。 | The customs of ethnic minorities are respected and the freedom of each ethnic group to maintain or reform its own customs is protected. In 2004, the region formulated the Halal Food Regulations of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region to protect the halal dietary customs of the relevant ethnic groups, which stipulated that departments in charge of ethnic affairs of the people's governments at/above the county level are vested with the responsibility of supervising and exercising control over the production and supply of halal food within areas under their jurisdiction. The region also renders support to and guarantees the production and supply of special supplies to ethnic minorities. Ethnic minorities which have the tradition of inhumation (ground burial) are exempt from the government requirement for cremation, and are allotted special plots for cemeteries. Major festivals of the ethnic minorities are also made official public holidays in Xinjiang. The region encourages all ethnic groups to respect one another's customs while encourages following more scientific, civilized and healthy customs in relation to food, clothing, shelter, transportation, weddings, funerals and etiquettes. |
| 選拔、培養、使用少數民族干部和專業技術人才。自治區通過培訓學習、基層鍛煉、異地交流、崗位輪換等多種形式，培養了大批各領域少數民族行政和專業技術干部。1955年，新疆有少數民族干部4.6萬人，2014年增至41.7萬人，占自治區干部總數的51.4%。自治區在公開選拔領導干部、錄用國家工作人員時，對少數民族適當放寬條件，通過劃定比例、定向招考、適當加分等政策，確保一定數量的少數民族進入公務員隊伍。2009－2014年，自治區招錄少數民族公務員占招錄總數的比例從29.9%提高到48.3%。少數民族專業技術人才培養得到特別支持。1992年開始，國家實施新疆少數民族科技骨干特殊培養工作，采取培訓、研修、交流、鍛煉等多種方式，至2014年共培養了3917名新疆急需的中高層次少數民族專業技術人才。自2000年起，自治區設立“少數民族科技人才特殊培養計劃科研專項資金”，支持少數民族科技骨干實施科技項目。新疆少數民族專業技術人員由1985年的12.43萬人增長到2014年的29.44萬人，占全區專業技術人員總數的比例由34.43％增長到58.37％，僅高級職稱少數民族專業技術人才就達2.11萬人。 | Candidates of ethnic minority origins are selected and cultivated as officials and professionals. A large number of administrative officials and technical professionals from ethnic minority groups have been fostered through training courses and working at the grassroots level, or through work exchanges or job rotation. In 1955, the number of ethnic minority officials in Xinjiang was 46,000, which increased to 417,000 in 2014, accounting for 51.4 percent of the total officials in the region. When selecting leading officials and recruiting civil servants, the autonomous region implements more flexible policies such as setting a recruitment ratio and offering directional recruitment and bonus points in favor of ethnic minorities, so as to make sure that a certain number of ethnic minorities join the civil service. The proportion of ethnic minority civil servants in the total recruitment increased from 29.9 percent in 2009 to 48.3 percent in 2014. Special support has been given to professional personnel of ethnic minority origins. Since 1992, the state has put in place a special program to train professionals of ethnic minority origins in key areas of science and technology by way of holding training courses, advanced studies, exchanges and being placed on more challenging posts, etc. and by the end of 2014 the region had trained in total 3,917 middle- and high-caliber professionals of ethnic minority origins badly needed in Xinjiang. In key areas of science and technology, Xinjiang has established and implemented a fund for special training of science and technology talents of ethnic minority origins since 2000. The number of ethnic minority technical professionals in Xinjiang increased from 124,300 in 1985 to 294,400 in 2014, and the proportion rose from 34.43 percent to 58.37 percent of the total number of such people in the region. The number of ethnic minority professionals with academic titles equivalent to professor and associate professor reached 21,100 in 2014. |
| 民族區域自治為民族團結提供制度保障。1955年，新疆總人口511.78萬人，2014年增長至2322.54萬人，其中少數民族1463.04萬人，占總人口的63%。自治區堅持開展形式多樣的民族團結宣傳教育，特別重視對青少年的教育，在小學至大學的各類學校教育中均設置民族團結及民族知識教育課程。堅持不懈地開展民族團結進步創建活動。自1983年開始，自治區先后召開了7次民族團結進步表彰大會，大力表彰民族團結進步模范單位和個人，在全社會推動形成以維護民族團結為榮、以損害民族團結為恥的社會風尚。目前，受到國務院、國家民委、自治區三級表彰的民族團結進步模范單位1304個（次）、模范個人2272人（次）。1983年開始，每年5月開展“民族團結教育月”活動，集中進行民族團結的宣傳教育。2009年，自治區頒布實施《新疆維吾爾自治區民族團結教育條例》，進一步規范了民族團結教育活動，推動各族民眾共同維護民族團結。2010年底，又出臺了《新疆維吾爾自治區民族團結進步模范單位和模范個人創建表彰管理辦法（試行）》，積極引導各族民眾加強交往交流交融，相互幫助；提倡各民族中小學生同校學習，同班上課。“漢族離不開少數民族，少數民族離不開漢族，各少數民族之間也相互離不開”成為加強民族團結的重要思想保證。 | The ethnic regional autonomy provides an institutional guarantee to ethnic unity. The region's population totaled 5.1 million in 1955 while by 2014 it had increased to over 23.2 million, of which 14.6 million were ethnic minorities, making up 63 percent of the total. The region has carried out all kinds of educational programs advocating ethnic unity, paying particular attention to education of the youth, as evidenced by courses on ethnic unity and knowledge about the various ethnic groups offered in various institutions of learning - from primary schools to universities. In Xinjiang, unremitting efforts have also been made in holding activities promoting ethnic unity and progress. To advocate ethnic unity and counter acts undermining it, the autonomous region has since 1983 held seven meetings awarding those making outstanding contribution to ethnic unity and progress, and commending units and individuals who have excelled in this regard. To date, the State Council, the State Ethnic Affairs Commission and the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region have commended 1,304 model units and 2,272 exemplary individuals. Since 1983, the region has held an "educational month of ethnic unity" each May, carrying out intensive and extensive public publicity on ethnic unity. In 2009, the region promulgated the Regulations of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on Ethnic Unity Education, further regulating ethnic unity education activities in order to call people of all ethnic groups to safeguard ethnic unity. By the end of 2010, the region had enacted the Measures for the Administration of Commendation of Role Models Contributing to Ethnic Unity Activities (Trial). The region encourages all members of ethnic groups to strengthen contact, exchange, integration and mutual support mechanisms, and advocates that primary or secondary school students of all ethnic groups study in the same classes and schools. It has become an important ideological guarantee for ethnic unity that "the Han Chinese cannot live without the ethnic minorities, the ethnic minorities cannot do without the Han Chinese, and no any one minority group can live without the other minority groups." |
| 近年來，隨著經濟社會的發展，新疆各民族人口流動更加頻繁，少數民族人口城市化、散居化趨勢明顯，民族間交往交流不斷密切。在共同工作、學習、娛樂，以及共同的社區生活中，不同民族成員增進了彼此的了解和友誼。 | Along with the region's economic and social development in recent years, increasing mobility has been witnessed in the population of different ethnic groups in Xinjiang. There has been a rising trend in the urbanization and scattered living of ethnic minorities (who used to live in remote rural areas in concentrated communities - ed.), and as such the contact and exchange among them have grown ever closer. In work, study and entertainment as well as shared community life, people of different ethnic origins have enhanced their friendship and mutual understanding. |
