麻豆社 Minute: On Islam in China

麻豆社 Minute

Available for over a year

Hundreds of Muslims took to the streets in Weizhou in Ningxia, China, to demonstrate against plans to pull down a mosque there. The local government said the building had been put up without the correct planning permission, but some suspect the attempted demolition is part of a wider effort to target religion in China. 麻豆社 Minute looks at Islam in China, where the constitutionally-enshrined freedom of religion is sometimes restricted in practice.
