    In the crowd, there was a special visitor. He is Ansar smaire, member of the Standing Committee of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region CPPCC and director of the science, education, health and Sports Committee of the Urumqi CPPCC. On this trip, he will donate his "treasure" which he has collected for 27 years to the memorial hall free of charge.

    Ansar smaire has been keen on red collection for nearly 30 years, especially admiring uncle Kurban's touching deeds of loving the party and patriotism. He often pays attention to collecting badges, medals, posters and other objects related to uncle Kurban. Among the Collections Donated this time, there is the badge of "Yutian County model of agricultural production" that uncle kuerban obtained and wore with the number of "9453". Ansar smaire said that these collections record the touching stories of Uncle Kurban, a amiable and respectable Uygur old man, who loves the Communist Party of China, socialism and national unity, and are worthy of learning, carrying forward and inheriting.

    "In this picture, the old man is wearing this badge. Today, it's finally home." Standing in front of the photo of the old man Kurban, Ansar smeregby was very excited to see a five pointed star military badge with six pieces of red enamel decorated on the top. This is the medal won by Uncle Kurban as a model worker at the "six good" Congress of Hotan District in January 1964.

    "I know it. A lot of people used to ask us where the medals were. Now I've found it. That's great Amanguli Ali, the commentator of the memorial hall, cheered excitedly when she saw the "six good" medal worn by the old Kurban. She quickly took Ansar to a display cabinet. Inside was a "summary of six good deeds", which said that "(Kurban turum) was an indelible red flag. Next to the display cabinet was an old thermos with the word" award "clearly printed on it. Amanguli said excitedly: "this is the document of the" six good "representative meeting of Hotan District and the prize won by uncle. It's the same set of" six good "medal donated by Ansar smaire Standing Committee. We haven't found it for a long time. Today we finally see the real object."

    "Then put these three together. They are finally reunited." Ansar smaire looked at these time-honored objects for a long time and said with satisfaction, "these badges are my love. They should be made into living textbooks for national unity education, cultural moistening Xinjiang project, and casting a strong sense of the Chinese nation community."

    In February this year, at the beginning of the party history education, Ansar smaire had the idea of donating the collection. When the leaders of the CPPCC National Committee of the autonomous region learned of his idea, they were very supportive. The culture, culture, history and Learning Committee immediately contacted the Kurban tulumu memorial hall, and actively contacted the Museum of the autonomous region to provide a series of detailed services for the packaging, transportation and display of the donated collection, which eventually contributed to this "beautiful event".

    On April 1, the great granddaughter of Uncle Kurban, ruyamu maitisaidi, was invited to participate in the donation ceremony. "It's so kind. I feel like my great grandfather is around." Seeing the badge worn by Kurban turmu in his lifetime, keyamu repeatedly said to Ansar smaire, "the collection you donated is not only a support for the memorial hall, but also a concern and encouragement for our descendants of Kurban turmu. I will use practical actions to drive the people of all ethnic groups to make greater contributions to enhancing national unity and maintaining social stability. "

    "Since the development of party history learning and education, more and more units and individuals have come to visit all over Xinjiang." Khankiz mamatimin, the commentator of the Kurban turmu Memorial, said that this year is the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China. They will make full use of the collection donated by Ansar smaire to tell the story of Uncle Kurban and pass on his spirit.
