Summary

Today, I introduce a unique system in China. The ruling party announced a nationwide “Social Credit System” by 2020. That system use facial recognition which allow them to score its citizens based on the behaviour. South China Morning Post reported, High score citizen have various awards like bank loan concessions, free-medical check ups and free water. The guardian said, Social credit offences range from not paying individual taxes or fines to spreading false information and taking drugs. The definition of false information is selective. If you blog or tweet something against the violation, you got detained. Authorities have previously used blacklists to limit the travel of some citizens, but the social credit system appears to have expanded the practice. China’s supreme court said in 2017 that 6.15 million citizens had been barred from taking flights because of social credit offences. The scores limit the access to the high-speed train airline tickets. Careful what you comment about communist party. Recently, ABC Australia’s program Four corner reported the discrimination in Xinjiang northwest of China. Minority Muslim community has been detained by the police to the re-education camp. A family member of the target told in the program “the government detain my wife because she studied in Egypt”. The Chinese government explain about the “school” that get rid of extremism in their region. In Xinjiang, social credit systems rely on foreign technology. Last February a Massachusetts-based company said it would stop selling and servicing genetic sequencers in Xinjiang, following complaints they had been used for surveillance. The Four corner reported an Australian University helped improving facial recognition of Muslim ethnicity in Xinjiang. The social credit system has more minor violations include using expired tickets, smoking on a train or not walking a dog on a leash. Poor doggies. Everywhere you go, the owner hold their back. Oops, it’s enough. It’s time to take my dog out. He loves running on the glass.
