October 17: Reports coming out of Tibet confirm the demise of yet another Tibetan, this time a nun, after she torched her body in an apparent protest against China's continued occupation of Tibet.

Tenzin Wangmo, around 20 years of age, set herself on fire at around 1 pm local time in the Ngaba region of eastern Tibet today.

The exile base of Kirti Monastery, citing eyewitnesses, in a release today said that Tenzin Wangmo self immolated on a crossroad near her monastery, the Mamae Dechen Choekhorling Nunnery, about 3 kms away from Ngaba County.
"Tenzin Wangmo was engulfed in flames as she marched on the streets for nearly 7 to 8 minutes raising slogans calling for the return of His Holiness the Dalai Lama from exile and religious freedom in Tibet," the release said.

Tenzin Wangmo died immediately.

According to the release, nuns from the Mamae nunnery carried Tenzin Wangmo's body to the nunnery and despite repeated warnings from Chinese security personnel, refuse to give possession of the deceased's body.

"The Chinese authorities have given the nuns an ultimatum to either hand over the deceased's body or bury Tenzin Wangmo's body by tonight," the release said.

The situation around Mamae nunnery, which is the largest nunnery in the Ngaba region with over 350 nuns, is being described as tense.

This is the ninth incidence in this year alone when a Tibetan has been driven to the extreme sacrifice of burning one's own body as a last resort of peaceful action against the Chinese government's repressive policies in Tibet.

The first 17 days of October has already witnessed five self-immolations in Ngaba region.

Khaying, Choephel, and Tenzin Wangmo succumbed to their injuries while Kesang Wangchuk is being described in critical condition. There is no information as yet on the whereabouts of Norbu Damdul who was last seen being taken away by Chinese security personnel on October 15.

The Central Tibetan Administration in a release earlier today said that His Holiness the Dalai Lama will be presiding over the "grand prayer service to mourn the tragic self-immolations in Tibet" scheduled for October 19 in Dharamshala, north India.

  • 盛雪: 藏人接连不断用自焚来反抗暴政,并受到中共政权更严厉的镇压。6­­0多年来,由于中共对信息的封锁、拣选、过滤、歪曲,由于随时­可­能遭受迫害和镇压,中国大陆境内的华人保持沉默,可悲,但可­以理­解。然而,在信息发达、新闻通畅、舆论自由,随意可以查阅­信息真­相的民主国家生活的华人,对此沉默,是可耻的;拥护暴政­镇压,是­罪恶的。

    Ghandi wasn't entirely peaceful, they leave a lot of things out about him in biographies.
