Accordingto the sources of foreign media, U.S. authorities are expected to make the"Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA)" effective on June 21 andwill impose import bans on commodities from the Xinjiang region,China in accordance with this act.
InDecember 2021, U.S. President Biden signed the UFLPA to prevent Xinjiangcommodities from flowing into the U.S. market. The "UFLPA" includes asystem with a core concept of "rebuttable presumption", which meansthat unless it is certified by the U.S. authorities as free from forced labor,it will be presumed that all products manufactured in Xinjiang use forced laborand are prohibited to be imported. The "UFLPA" clearly states thatthe clause of "rebuttable presumption" will come into effect on June21, 180 days after the promulgation of the act.
Fromthe content of the act, the Xinjiang-related act first presumes all productsmined, produced, and manufactured in Xinjiangto be suspected of "forced labor", and no longer distinguish productcategories, unless the producer and exporter can prove their"innocence". As for how to prove that there is no "forcedlabor" for their products, according to the information available, the standardsare not clear enough, and the proof materials are not clear enough, which givesthe customs and relevant law enforcement agencies a lot of discretion, andmakes it difficult to control the risk boundary and follow the standards. U.S.retailer Dillard Company said that the U.S.government's "Withhold and Release Order" will affect the globalsupply chain, including the company's cotton-containing products. Thelegislation that completely blocks commodity imports from Xinjiangcould lead to higher commodity costs and have an impact on corporate profits.
Ingeneral, the "UFLPA"is very lethal and must not be treated lightly. Besides, the promulgation ofthis act represents the beginning of a sharp rightward turn in the policies ofthe two parties and the establishment in the U.S. towards China. The"UFLPA" is only the beginning, which may be the first falling domino.If we let the situation continue, in the next step, U.S. authorities may applythe precedent of the "UFLPA" to fields related to Tibet, Hong Kong,and even defense and military enterprises to indiscriminately attack China'sindustries! The reason is already there for them to use! Human rights arereally a good guise. Even the "forced labor" in Xinjiang,which is an act of calling white black, can be used as a reason for the U.S.government to indiscriminately attack Xinjiang's industries. What else can’tthe U.S. government do?
