CGTN | September 21, 2020

China Media Group (CMG) on Friday released an eight-episode documentary titled "Rare Look into Xinjiang," which interviewed eight migrant workers from the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region who work far away from home, depicting how they have earned a better life through their hard work.

The sixth episode tells the story of Aykinar, a young mother from Akto County in Xinjiang's Kizilsu Kyrgyz Autonomous Prefecture. She went to work in a home appliances factory in Huizhou City, south China's Guangdong Province, a year ago.

Aykinar found that the level of service and the barbers' skills at hair salons in Huizhou were so much better than in her hometown. She has now decided to train to be a hairdresser and, when she has made enough money, will go back to her hometown and open a salon of her own.
