The Australian Strategic Policy Institute said this was the next phase in China's re-education of Uighurs.
China has already detained about a million Uighurs at internment camps, punishing and indoctrinating them.
Officials say the camps are aimed at countering extremism.
The ASPI report comes after a senior Chinese official told reporters in December that members of the minority group being held in the camps had now "graduated". What does the report say?
Between 2017 and 2019, the ASPI think tank estimates that more than 80,000 Uighurs were transferred out of the far western Xinjiang autonomous region to work in factories across China. It said some were sent directly from detention camps.
ASPI said the Uighurs were moved through labour transfer schemes operating under a central government policy known as Xinjiang Aid.
The report said it was "extremely difficult" for Uighurs to refuse or escape the work assignments, with the threat of "arbitrary detention" hanging over them.
It added that there was evidence of local governments and private brokers being "paid a price per head" by the Xinjiang government to organise the assignments, which ASPI describes as "a new phase of the Chinese government's ongoing repression" of Uighurs.

"Our report makes it really clear that the dispossession of Uighurs and other ethnic minorities in Xinjiang also has a really strong character of economic exploitation," the report's co-author Nathan Ruser told the BBC.
"We have this unseen and previously hidden contamination of the global supply chain."

Is this how?
This is the Apple story:

Either work or die having your organs removed.
Trump's fault! Trump's fault!
Apple factories probably require trained personnel rather than press-ganged labor. Mostly.
I’m thinking more of Colin Kaepernick and Nike sneakers.
I would think Christians as well.
Mexicans can do the work apparently...
Coronavirus Could Be The End Of China As Global Manufacturing Hub

What I’m suggesting is that to keep Apple, Nike, etc. from looking to Mexico and other countries they’ve brought in the Muslim forced labor to keep things going.
Men are 4x and Asians 5x more likely to get COVID-19. Not sure what the genetic makeup is of this Muslim group within China.
When it comes to their Muslim ethnic minorities, the PRC does not kid around. I think the Uighurs tried at one time to assert themselves against the Chinese government in the same way that Muslims in Western Europe do against those. Right or wrong, PRC is having none of it.
“Men are 4x and Asians 5x more likely to get COVID-19. Not sure what the genetic makeup is of this Muslim group within China.”
Google sez =>
“The Uyghurs, alternately Uygurs, Uighurs or Uigurs, are a Turkic minority ethnic group originating from and culturally affiliated with the general region of Central and East Asia.”
China needs fresh lungs for their infected officials.
Commies verses Muzzies. Not sure who to root for. Spain was able to beat Islam but it had a better alternative which was Christianity.
Hello, Nike? For the sake of clarity, could you have your favored mouthpiece, Mr. Kapernick, state your position on slave labor?
Mexico cannot compete with a country that uses slave labor. Even Apple factories can use uneducated slaves. All the CEOs of the companies that benefit from slavery are social justice warriors as are the sports figures who bend their knees.
Mohammeddans getting payback for centuries of conquering, enslaving and oppressing Asians. Boo freaking hoo.
These followers of Mohammed are getting work therapy. At least they won’t be knifing and blowing up their fellow Chinese.
