| Joyce, you have never been to Tibet yourself. Let Tibetans speak for themselves. Speak for Tibetans only when you understand and know about their situation. My parents and ancestors are from Tibet. They are in exile now and they belong to Nomad family in the western Tibet. We don't have slaves or serfs as Chinese Communist Government Claims. China have emperors, slaves, concubines, terra cotta armies buried alive for the emperor, women foot binding, etc. Tibetans don't have such things at all. China is itself a backward country in 1940's, Japanese invasion of China brought and developed economic infrastructure into China. All countries have visible and invisible economic and social boundaries such as upper class and middle class and poverty. So, please don't pretend not knowing the existence of such undesirable social and economic boundaries in your fantasy of perfect China. Perhaps in China, poor people working for rich are called "slave" but not in other countries. We know the CCP communist enjoy the most privileges than Hans. And CCP politburos are more upperclass than CCP members. And you talk about developing Tibet. haha. Developing Tibet so that more Hans can move into Tibet and benefit. Don't forget that Chinese government extracted more than 40 billion dollars worth of Tibetan timbers destroying ecosystem in Eastern Tibet which we Tibetans call it AMDO) And definitely, paying 1 renminbi extra for purchasing food for minority college students doesn't count as favor or right. It's just one of those CCP policy to make it look like they care for minorities when 1 renminbi doesn't buy a meal but may be some candies for kids. And you guys think your government is doing favors with 1 renminbi. You will hate to know this, but 99.9% (without any margin of error) of Tibetans love His Holiness The Dalai Lama. We even love him more after China occupied Tibet. We love Dalai Lama because he takes care of Tibetans. He works hard for Tibetans. Dalai Lama has built hundreds of Tibetan schools in India and Nepal, While Chinese government is busy building more prisons in Tibet for Tibetans. As I write this mail, somewhere in the border between Tibet and Nepal, Tibetans are escaping from Chinese controlled Tibet. They escape so they can attend schools built by His Holiness and get good education as well as buddhist education. I say back to you... "Go see Tibet yourself" Ask questions to them sincerely. |
