Disney apparently thanks the Public Security Bureau of Turban Municipality for assisting in the making of Mulan (they call Xinjiang “Northwest China” and pretend that the Uyghurs do not exist).

I understand a lot of people are excited about live action Mulan, but please boycott it. The actress, who played Mulan, said she was with Hong Kong police. Ill try and explain the best of my abilities, but I don’t know much about it

Another reason for concern is the comments made by Mulan star Yifi Liu last August. “I support the Hong Kong police. All of you can attack me now. What a shame for Hong Kong,” she posted on Weibo.
Liu Weibo made the announcement two months before protests in Hong Kong hit a new peak, with a handover bill empowering China’s courts over sensitive Hong Kong legal cases. Opponents of the movement have often allied themselves with calls from police forces to stop violent protests, not by fully supporting China.
“This is clearly a very critical situation and I am not an expert. I hope all of this will be resolved soon,” she said. In a follow-up interview with Entertainment Weekly.
Hong Kong activist and politician Joshua Wang Liu brought up the comments on Friday, When the film debuted on Disney Plus, it promoted “everyone who believes in human rights to #BoycottMulan”. This tweet has 27,000 retweets.
Disney reached out for comment but did not immediately respond.
