I just wanted to confirm if it was true. If yes, I really am disappointed with the fact that Tibetans there have taken lives, going against the ideals HH has been working very hard. But I dont think it is fair to take the lives of the Chinese, no matter how big the matter is. Please prove me wrong.

I go to an undergrad school here in States and once I was doing my work study when I asked International student, a chinese girl, if her freinds were applying to get in American Universities and colleges and she responded Chinese students are facing difficulties or even rejections due to the Tibet Issue. I was wondering if that could be a fact or her just personal frustration to come up with such a conclusion.

I dont know what point it was. but in the five point peace plan, HH talks about sending the Chinese settlers back to China. I dont think thats unfair too. I agree that the influc should be stopped but the transferring of the Chinese out of Tibet should not be enforced but the choice of Chinese already there to decide.

Plus, we know that globalization is taking place at a fast rate and if Tibet to regain its autonomy atleast, wouldnt it be hard to seclude ourself again? the choice of preserving the culture and the tradition would be upon individuals to decide.

Saw that article you reference. At least it would seem that PRC takes credit for some kind of failure in Tibet, which almost looks like they’re progressing somehow or somewhat. But, yeah, it’s deadly hilarious. Tibetans were progressing too fast and that got them upset back in March, we now discover, five months later. Progress was just so fast they felt left behind, didn’t know what to do with all that extra stuff they were getting. Now we’ll just have to cut off the funds. No more train systems for them. Not after what they did to our shops in Lhasa.
The things that pass for knowledge I can’t understand.

No doubt assisted by yet another bumber harvest in Tibet, which rather remarkably has been enjoyed ever since communist China’s invasion in 1950!

http://news.smashits.com/273103/Rapid-reforms-could-have-led-to-riots-in-Tibet.htm

Poor China! It has brought TOO MUCH development to Tibet! And it wasn’t thorough enough in rooting out the last remnants of feudalism! Fortunately, the real monks, who are focused on self-development not politics, are going to help China root out the fake monks, who were behind the turmoil!

I’m not sure if the character who cut and pasted this Propaganda Ministry press release really believed it was a “frank admission” but you never know.

You have to check out the Constitution of Tibet promulgated in 1963, published by the Baptist Mission Press Calcutta. This is the fundamental document of the exile government.

One could always research the reported involvement of one Michael van Walt, traces of whose quill are thought to be scratched across one or two key documents. Not always to the advantage of Tibetan independence

Sorry! I’ve been away for a little while and my study has been completely taken over by the builders. I just looked over all the suggestions for us reclaiming the debate as it were and I really think that most of the ideas of are do-able and would benefit the cause. In fact I have offered similar ideas in my next posting which will appear tomorrow. Great minds thinking alike and all that.
cheers
Jamyang
