The Uygur people live in northwest China close
to Russia, Kazakhstan, and India. As a result
of early Arab influences, most are Muslims.
The Muslim religion dictates their daily life.
They are known for their love of meat and vegetable
delicacies. However, they do not eat pork and
will not enter a home where pork is eaten.
The young people are being influenced by the
materialistic Chinese and believe that science
means progress. They are interested in a good
education and job so they can purchase the amenities
that urban life offers. The Uygur people are
one of the most unreached people groups in the
world.
