For Turks, the homeland isn't Turkey, nor yet Turkistan. Their country is a vast, eternal land: Turan!

Not just the numbers, if you study their language you'll find many many more similarities. I'm a Turkish speaker and am practicing Uygur, I love how many similiarities there are in our two dialects.

Understanding the Latin alphabet is easier than listening to someone speak. I hope to learn their official Arabic script soon.

Hey nice to meet you. I'll be going to East Turkistan this August, again, but this time I'll be living there for a couple years. Where in East Turkistan are you or your family from?

When I was there for 3 weeks that summer I saw so much, especially since one of my tour guides was an Uygur. He wasn't afraid to tell me and show me the truth. But I'm sure with me staying there for a couple years I'll see a whole lot more, some great stuff and some upsetting stuff. One question, and please be honest...me being a Turk, how will I be treated there while living there? When I was visiting I was treated great by the Uygurs when they heard I was a Turk, but that may be just because I was there temporarily. Would it be the same? I think it will be but I just want to be sure, since I know many Turks in Central Asia have a little dislike towards Turkish people because of Turkeys governments political views.

I'll hope to post many pics, I'm planning on doing so in my forum. But there's a problem. Because of Chinas censorship I may not be able to access my forum or this forum, this is why I'm privatly planning on making a certain person moderator of my forum. I hope I wont have to do this because I put so much work and time into it, it'smore than just some internet forum to me and the members. We're working on actual projects to spread Pan-Turkism and everything. Anyway, don't want to get too much off topic now.

For sure it would be same.The reason is almost all uighur people who knows the current situation know turkish people are on our side(supporting our independence) whatever the government political view.And most of us think its good for us if one foreigner lives with us,at least who can see what is Uighur people suffering at present.If you go to countryside,all the people are so friendly ,they dont care where you from or where you livin.

I have always wondered why the uighur dont get much media coverage, maybe because they are not jewish.
But we need more stuff on Uighur culture on this forum, like arts and music, pics etc.

That's good to know. Most of the people I know are in Ghulja and Kashgar but I think I'll be in Urumqi.

My friends that made this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CaaCjHHinz4 which was posted in this forum not too long ago, have made a new video. This one goes more into the treatment they recieve by the Chinese Government. It's too long of a file to upload here and there is no web address for it yet so if you want to see it, private message me with your e-mail address and I'll e-mail it to you. It's something you should all see.

It is the Emin Mosque, built in 1778 of sun-dried brick and is still in exellent condition. Only the floral minaret was closed off to me because of age but it seemed strong. It was designed by a Uygur architect named Ibrahim.
