Young local Tajik guy talks about their life in high Chinese Pamir Plateau border region in Xinjiang
English subtitles availableSummary:
When locals Tajiks get married, marriage gifts don't include cars and houses, cause everyone has cars and houses, they are not needed, government provides houses for free for the locals and every person has a private car and it makes no sense to get another one.
All local villagers can get a part time government "border patrol" job in this region, receiving monthly paid salary of 2,600¥ ( $400 ) per person.
Many Pakistani vendors cross the border to the Chinese side to do small business in the border town Tashkurgan, and we should support them as friends.
