Tibet - What remains of us (3/8)

China is incurring huge expenditure in transferring and consolidating the Chinese population in Tibet. Massive investment has been made to build a network of modern highways all over Tibet. China can also boast of having laid the highest railway track in the world that connects Lhasa with Beijing. In fact, China often complains that its civilizing mission in Tibet is costing the government and people of China large amounts in terms of subsidies to an under-developed region. According to official Chinese statistics, the level of annual subsidies to the Tibetan Autonomous Region (TAR) in the late 1980s was around 1 billion yuan or $270 million. However, all the infrastructure that China has built in Tibet has not made the lives of the native Tibetans any better; it has only taken the exploitative apparatuses of the Chinese government deeper.

This video made me cry. May Tibetans have religious and political freedom.

We cannot turn our backs on these people!

Everyone sign the pledge alleging support for Tibet:

w w w . s t a n d u p f o r t i b e t . o r g

It takes two minutes. And writing a short e-mail to your senators/representative/member of parliament to exert pressure on China to stop human rights abuses in Tibet requires four minutes.

God bless TIBET! And God bless HH THE DALAI LAMA!
