Tibetans protest on Losar in a historic move

http://www.rfa.org/tibetan
Tibetans inside Tibet and all over the world decided not to celebrate Losar, the traditional Tibetan New Year. Instead Tibetans took part in prayers for those who were killed by the Chinese government since March 10th 2008 and protest against the Chinese government for cracking down inside Tibet. Tibetan Associations of Washington DC and Charlottsville, Virginia gathered in front of the Chinese embassy in Washington and protested all day and offered prayers to all those who are suffering inside Tibet under the Chinese repressions.

China get out of Tibet?, No..,Free Tibet already 'closed shop' since 2009. Tibet belongs to China, you can't change it. Every poor people will be looked after including Tibetan. Free Tibet already bankrupted...

China Get Out Of Tibet, take your train with you :)

Han Chinese have the greates profit out of it - Lhasa shopkeepers are most HanChinese !

Look out for your own poor people !!

If thats the case, then i guess Tibet will forever be part of China...that was an extremely smart move that China did, took over Tibet, now they have absolute control over the water resource that make up the Mekong rivers, which all the southeast Asian countries rely on.......

People of Tibet are Nonviolent, Peace loving People, they will fight wit nonviolent means till Tibet get their Freedom. They earned this.

The Chinese leadership's attitude is abuse of its own citizens & downgrade human-rights priorities.

How long it take as nothing happen, wake up Chinese People & rise up ur hand.

Big tragic for the World.

taking Tibet back from China is very hard, unless there's a huge world war and somehow Tibetans are armed and support .....
