Embassy in Mongolia Returned the Letter about the Opposition to Chinese Teaching Materials in Inner Mongolia: Wrong Point of View
Inner Mongolia Education Department required all institutions to teach in Chinese instead of Mongolian, which triggered local citizens to protest. The Former Mongolian President, Elbegdorj Tsakhia, sent a letter to President Xi Jinping yesterday (25th September), demonstrating the push in Chinese teaching materials in Inner Mongolia. He posted in Twitter today that the Chinese Embassy in Mongolia had returned his letter. He also emphasized, he would not retract that letter and stated that the letter had already drawn many attentions in society.
According to RTHK quoted the letter from Chinese Ambassador, Chai Wenrui, to Elbegdorj Tsakhia, indicated that all affairs related to Inner Mongolia, including bilingual education, were China’s internal affairs and no interference from others was allowed. They also said the view in Elbegdorji's letter was completely wrong that China would not accept it. China hopes that he would respect China’s sovereignty based on the relationship between the two countries, identify the truth and stop speculating on relevant issues.
Chai said he noted that Elbegdorji had recently made many remarks on the reform of bilingual education in Inner Mongolia. However, the national-common language is a symbol of national sovereignty. It is the right and obligation of every citizen to learn and use the language. At the same time, the Chinese government protects the rights of ethnic minorities, including Mongolians, to use their own spoken and written languages.
Elbegdorji’s letter stated that the Chinese Constitution stipulated all ethnic groups have the freedom to use and develop their language but the freedom of Mongolian children in Inner Mongolia is being violated. He pointed out that he wrote the letter as he could not ignore the problem, describing that thousands of Mongolians and their children desired China to fulfil their rights under the constitution, they are suffering indescribably.

日籍蒙族教授認為中國應維持語言多樣性 否則適得其反
在日本的蒙古族人早前遊行,抗議内蒙古推行的漢語教學政策。有參與者批評當局謀殺蒙古語,有組織者認為,内蒙是模範和聽話的自治區,不理解當局為何强推政策。 已入籍日本、本身是蒙古族的靜岡大學教授楊海英分析,內地當局加強推動漢語教學,是擔心内蒙出現分離主義。但他認為應該保留語言多樣性,否則會適得其反。

Turning masses against the masses is an oft-used tactic by #ccp to make sure it remains on top of everyone. So don’t think persecution of ethnic minorities will stop, or in fact, the persecution of any random groups.
