If thats true then I dont see why China wont put these companies in the spotlight..But some folk here said that the bigger apparel company of Japan, Uniqlo, is boycotting Xinjiang products. I believe Uniqlo is bigger in apparel than Muji, but I could be wrong.
Japanese garment retailer MUJI clarifies use of Xinjiang cotton amid boycotting outrage (25 March 2021)
Kyodo News reported in February that 12 major Japanese companies have established a policy of ceasing business deals with Chinese companies found to benefit from the forced labor in China's Xinjiang region.
The 12 companies include MUJI, and Fast Retailing Co, operator of the Uniqlo casual clothing brand.
The Global Times found that Xinjiang cotton products that were previously on sale have been hard to find on Uniqlo's official website.
As of time of press, Uniqlo has not yet responded to the interview from Global Times.

Chinese netizens don't buy H&M reply regarding Xinjiang cotton (25 March 2021)
You don't want your offensive to have too broad of a front. Defeat in detail one section at a time.If thats true then I dont see why China wont put these companies in the spotlight..
Maybe this is just for the EU and they dont want to target Japan for now?
Lets see how the situation evolves in the future. Ideally the western apparel companies should be kicked out to let Chinese one grow and take their place.
And lets not forget that for these "high-value" brands they make a huge amount of profit
I born and grew up in Turkey. The Grey Wolves are indeed a*sholes. They have thousands of Turk's blood in their hands too.As of today. The US military is still allowed to fly assets in and out of Afghanistan via routes crossing SCO member states. They are already moving Al-Qaeda and ISIS terrorists back and forth between Syria and Afghanistan as of now. When the US want to fly In Uighur terrorists from Syria to Afghanistan, its gonna be just business as usual.
It would be nice if the SCO can unite to deny access to US flights in and out of Afghanistan. But I doubt that that could actually materialize. It could create massive tensions with the US and NATO.
I don't think China will have too much difficulty stopping terrorists from entering into the country. What I am really concerned is that terrorist attacks could also happen outside of China.
It has happened before. We must recall the 2015 Bangkok bombing. The attack targeted the Erawan Shrine. A popular tourist spots for ethnic Chinese tourists. Among those killed are Thais, Mainland Chinese, HKgers, Malaysians, a Singaporean, and an Indonesian. All of the non-Thai victims were ethnic Chinese. I was a tourist at Bangkok at that time, but fortunately at another area. I could just as easily have visited that shrine on that day. The bomber was connected to the Grey Wolves Turkish terrorist group who were involved in the trafficking of Uighur terrorists from China to Turkey, and then to Syria. Thailand was just a transit point. The bombing was perpetrated as revenge after Thai authorities caught a few Uighur terrorists and repatriated them back to China.
This is a very real danger if another wave of Islamic terrorism is being launched against China. Chinese citizens and ethnic Chinese could be targeted outside of China. If the Grey Wolves and ETIM could not kill Chinese in China, they can very well switch to target Chinese overseas. Citizens or not.
This is why I feel very angry about what the US and friends are doing with Xinjiang, the Uighurs and ETIM. They are on the path, whether consciously or not, to support and sponsor terrorism that specifically targets Chinese people in China and around the world. And when an attack really does happen, it can be easily blamed on China. The victims be damned. They couldn't care less about Chinese lives. That is pure imperialist evil.
Outside of China. We can only hope and pray that our respective security forces are up for the task to prevent any more terrorism.
With the US moral outrage at China's fight against Islamic extremism, and considering the US own ongoing wars in muslim states of Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Yemen, what gives America the right to call this a domestic terrorist attack? America wages war on foreign soil, so why can't others wage war on American soil? This individual is clearly not a terrorist, but rather an enemy combatant. I hope the Americans have the decency to treat him as a POW in accordance with his rights under the Geneva convention.
We can see how shallow people's thinking is nowadays. Here is the parliamentary report with over 31 sources!
However, even a cursory look into these sources should bring up questions.
Amnesty - up to 1 million detained, no research shown into how this number was calculated.
World Uyghur Congress - American political destabilization organization
BBC article on Uighur "leaked reducation documents" - Basically describes any generic institutional situation. Could be prison, could be military camp, it's not exactly 'proof' of atrocities
How would you guys interpret Saudi Arabia's declaration they would 'prioritize meeting China's energy needs over the next 50 years'? Is it just fluff, or is there substance to it?
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia has met with Wang Yi and says Saudi Arabia firmly supports China's position on Xinjiang and Hong Kong. Saudi Arabia is against any attempt at interference of China's internal affairs as well as any attempt at subtaging relationship between China and the Islamic world.
