This is Ngulchu Tulku, 29, born in India. He is the reincarnation of the tutor of the 10th Pancen Lama. His reincarnation is personally recognized by the Dalai Lama.

In his previous life he was killed by the Chinese, he says that this makes him not afraid to die for Tibet again. A country where he has never been.

Being such an important incarnation makes him a leader in the daily protests against the Chinese in Kathmandu. He is not for a Free Tibet, but supports the Dalai Lama in his "middle way solution". He is primarily concerned with the human right situation in Tibet.

In custody the Tibetans got threatened with violence and deportation by a drunken police inspector. During the night they were not given any blackest. You can hear about this in the video.

Ngulchu is one of the leaders of the 'hunger strike group'. They decided to stop protesting in front of the embassy and UN house because of the political situation in Nepal. The elections are within a week and he does not want to contribute to the instability of the country.

He and other members of the group are under pressure from their families. They are afraid that the Chinese will kidnap them and take them back to China. Ngulchu's family already sent members back to India where they are more safe.

Ngulchu is not afraid for himself but he is afraid for his family. He however does not like to walk in the streets at night because he is afraid the Chinese will kidnap him. He does not have a passport, he is registered as a refugee.

The hunger strike group decided to stop protesting in front of the embassy and the UN House but this does not mean that they will stop with their actions. They are thinking about planning another hunger strike. Not until death, the Dalai Lama forbade this.

  • LOL @ caremore's comments... Having freedom and speaking ur mind is wayy better than not having freedom.. stayin quiet even tho u're being repressed.. What if u were really rich but u could never speak ur mind??.. Wouldn't that be torture? And who said Tibetans in exile are poor??.. lol.. By the grace of H.H the Dalai Lama.. we're all doing GREAT!! Besides the fact that we don't have our very OWN land. :(

  • I feel sorry to see the Tibetan in India are so poor,but the Tibetan in china has a much better living conditions in general ... Feed my mouth first or free my soul?

  • His indian accent is very difficult to understand.

  • Communist killed 100 million people. The world hates communists. Chinese children are brainwashed to know nothing about that. Except the Chinese Race, the fallacy of Ignorance, you too, 2 wrong make a right, personal attack.

    If evil such as Stalin, Hitler, Mao, HCM, and other communists come to you and say they are good now, they promise never do bad act, never kill any one. Doubt about it because their evil nature may return at any time

    Where flood destroyed everything, it'll happen again
