40th Meeting 58th Session of Human Rights Council UN Web TV
– ID with Special Rapporteur on minority issues
China Ethnic Minorities’ Association for External Exchanges, Wu Lan
发言内容：
Respected Vice President, In recent years, some media have claimed that China has imposed cultural oppression on the Mongolian ethnic group, such as not allowing the use of Mongolian language in schools.
As a member of a minority ethnic group who grew up in Inner Mongolia, what I have witnessed is a completely different situation. Firstly, China legally guarantees the freedom of all ethnic groups to learn and use their own languages.
In Inner Mongolia, Mongolian language courses are offered in primary schools with corresponding textbooks and dedicated teachers. There are also Mongolian radio stations and over 100 websites. At the same time, Mongolian script is used for science in public places such as hospitals and subways, and is also featured on the RMB.
Secondly, the protection and inheritance of the Mongolian language and script in China deserve recognition. There are 98 national intangible cultural heritage in Inner Mongolia, and the traditional Mongolian script is being passed down. All historical documents can be studied without obstacles, and there has been no cultural break. If interested, I would be more than willing to serve as a guide and take you to Inner Mongolia for a visit. Thank you, Madam.
