Don't label terrorism as 'ethnic': adviser

Cases like the deadly attack in Kunming should be handled in a way that avoids linking a terrorist assault with an "ethnic issue".

Zhu Weiqun, head of the committee on ethnic and religious affairs under China's top political advisory body, made the remark on Wednesday in an interview with China Daily.

Zhu, the chairman of the Ethnic and Religious Affairs Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, was addressing misunderstandings from the terrorist attack in the Yunnan provincial capital on Saturday.
