"We believe Taiwan compatriots, including citizens in Kaohsiung, can see the truth of this issue, and urged the concerned parties of Kaohsiung city not to stir up troubles on the cross-Straits relation," the spokesman said.

"Some forces in Kaohsiung insisted on showing this film that distorted the facts and beautified the ethnic separatists, which has sent a wrong signal to terrorism and violence," the spokesman said.

"Rebiya Kadeer is an ethnic separatist, who has planned the July 5 riot in Urumqi which has killed 197 people and injured more than 1700, and also jeopardized the life and wealth security of innocent people and social order."
