Monks disrupt journalists' tour of Tibet
Loading...
Uploaded by SFTHQ on Mar 27, 2008
A government-managed visit by foreign reporters to Tibet's capital backfired Thursday when Buddhist monks disrupted the tour, screaming that there was no religious freedom and that the Dalai Lama was not to blame for Lhasa's recent violence.
The government had arranged the trip for the reporters to show how calm Lhasa was after the deadly riots shattered the city.
The outburst by a group of 30 monks came as the journalists were being shown around the Jokhang Temple, one of Tibet's holiest shrines.

Against Communists, seems like you are wrong here! Foreign reporters paid visits to Tibet and they're are amazed the city looks so modernized. Tibetans had a peaceful living there and earned high income. Tibet is already free. Wake up u retard.

Pay attention people. Chinese communist government is now concentrating in control the media. All the negative comments and pro Communist China come from the people which called watch dog of regim. Most of them got paid by the government to support China government and distort the truth. All the Chinese who really know the actual ugly face of China government got blocked to enter YouTube. Keep it up people. FREE TIBETT, BOYCOTT OLYMPIC 2008.

The truth is there are 46,000 monks in Tibet. Here we see 30 of those complaining. People should know there are very intense religious sects competition in TIbet. Why they're crying? May be they're bullied by other monks from other sects. LOL. Dalai can not go back to TIbet becasuse other big monks do not want him to come back at all. Don't blame it on the Chinese government. LOL

I recommend a book named "A History of Modern Tibet, 1913-1951: The Demise
: of the Lamaist State" by Melvyn C. Goldstein. He is a leading expert on
: Tibetan studies in the US.
