On the morning of June 27, at 11 AM, Deputy Secretary-General Chang Yu-jung of the Legislative Yuan, representing President Daniel K.Y. Han, attended the founding ceremony of the Taiwan Parliament Group for Uyghur initiated by Legislator Puma Shen. Distinguished guests included Legislators Chuang Jui-hsiung, Huang Jie, Lee Kuen-cheng, and Kuo Yu-ching. Also present were Ilham Mahmut, Chairperson of the Uyghur Refugee Support Fund and Founding President of the Japan Uyghur Association; Ho Chao-tung, President of the Taiwan East Turkestan Association; Tashken Davlet, Outreach Officer of the Uyghur Human Rights Project; Sky Fung, Secretary-General of Hong Kong Border Youth; Kelsang Gyaltsen Bawa, Chairperson of the Tibet Religious Foundation of HH the Dalai Lama; and Tashi Tsering, Secretary-General of the Human Rights Network for Tibet and Taiwan.
成立大會首先由張裕榮副秘書長代表立法院致詞揭開序幕。張副秘書長表示，全球對維吾爾族的關切長期圍繞在「人權」議題上，美國國務院在本（2024）年4月發布的「2023年各國人權實踐報告」中，即點名在新疆的維吾爾族人持續遭受強迫勞動之暴行，已列為現今國際人權的關注焦點。國際間近年紛紛以具體行動聲援維吾爾族人所遭受到的種種迫害：美國國務卿布林肯（Antony Blinken）特別指出，新疆維吾爾少數民族刻正面臨種族滅絕的危機；多位歐洲議員也公開呼籲歐洲各國應正視、並出面捍衛維吾爾族的基本人權；「聯合國人權事務辦公室」（The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, OHCHR）也譴責中國侵犯維吾爾族之人權、語言、文化等基本權利，呼籲北京政府立即釋放被逮捕的相關維權人士。The ceremony commenced with an opening speech by Deputy Secretary-General Chang Yu-jung on behalf of the Legislative Yuan. Deputy Secretary-General Chang stated that global concern for the Uyghur people has long centered on human rights issues. In April 2024, the US Department of State released the 2023 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices, highlighting the ongoing forced labor atrocities faced by Uyghurs in Xinjiang. This issue has become a focal point of international human rights concerns. In recent years, the international community has increasingly taken concrete actions to support Uyghurs facing various forms of persecution. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken specifically pointed out that the Uyghur minority in Xinjiang is facing a crisis of genocide. Several European parliamentarians have also publicly called on European countries to recognize and defend the fundamental human rights of the Uyghur people. The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) has condemned China's violations of the basic rights of the Uyghurs, including their human rights, language, and culture, and has called on the Beijing government to immediately release the detained human rights defenders.
張副秘書長特別感謝沈伯洋委員接棒發起成立立法院本（第11）屆「台灣國會維吾爾連線」，並強調身為國際社會負責任的一份子，台灣將會堅定捍衛民主、自由、人權等普世價值，期盼透過國會外交的力量，結合民主陣營國家，團結守護這些普世價值，未來若「台灣國會維吾爾連線」有需要協助的行政事宜，立法院絕對盡心協助。
Deputy Secretary-General Chang expressed his special gratitude to Legislator Puma Shen for taking the initiative to establish the Legislative Yuan's 11th Taiwan Parliament Group for Uyghur. He emphasized that, as a responsible member of the international community, Taiwan is committed to upholding the universal values of democracy, freedom, and human rights. He hopes that through the power of parliamentary diplomacy, Taiwan can unite with democratic countries to collectively safeguard these universal values. Deputy Secretary-General Chang assured that if the Taiwan Parliament Group for Uyghur requires any administrative assistance in the future, the Legislative Yuan will provide full support.
