On August 28, 2017, China's official news agency Xinhua quoted Meng Jianzhu, Political Bureau member and head of the CCP CC's Commission for Political and Legal Affairs, as saying after a 5-day inspection in Xinjiang that new technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence must be used to fight terrorism in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. He highlighted the role of political and legal organs in safeguarding stability of Xinjiang and national security and asked police officers to improve their political quality and abilities to better fight crime and protect the people. Meng Jianzhu stressed that Xinjiang must continue to give top priority to fighting secessionists and focus on the crackdown on terrorist activities.
