Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps

The Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, also known as XPCC or Bingtuan, is a state-owned economic and paramilitary organization in China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.

In its history, the XPCC has built farms, towns, and cities, provided land and employment to disbanded military units, and re-settled Han migrants from other parts of China in what has been called a campaign of assimilation. It operates prisons and publicly traded companies.
