[Part.19]
In 1956 Mao again raised the issue in his famous speech "On The Ten Major Relationships": "We
put the emphasis on opposing Han chauvinism. Local-nationality chauvinism must be opposed too,
but generally that is not where our emphasis lies. All through the ages, the reactionary rulers,
chiefly from the Han nationality, sowed feelings of estrangement among our various nationalities
and bullied the minority peoples. Even among the working people it is not easy to eliminate the
resultant influences in a short time. The air in the atmosphere, the forests on the earth and
the riches under the soil are all important factors needed for the building of socialism, but no
material factor can be exploited and utilized without the human factor. We must foster good
relations between the Han nationality and the minority nationalities and strengthen the unity of
all the nationalities in the common endeavor to build our great socialist motherland."
The storms of revolution in Tibet after 1959 were a great step forward for Mao's line. While the
serfs were fighting for their land, struggle intensified within the Communist vanguard itself
over how far such movements should go. In many places in Tibet there were still rich and poor,
even after the land was distributed. Feudal customs and practices of all kinds were still
strong. New revolutionary organizations were just getting started. The revolution still had a
long way to go.
In the early '60s, revisionist forces called for "five years of consolidation" within Tibet­
which to them meant a cooling-out of the struggle. Socialist experiments in Tibet, like the
early rural communes and many new factories, were disbanded.
The revisionists did not get "five years of consolidation" to suppress the people in Tibet. In
1965 the sharp line struggle came to a head within the Central Committee of the Communist Party
itself. Chairman Mao unleashed an unprecedented "revolution within the revolution" called the
Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution.

This information is very selective, trying to excuse the violent invasion and occupation of Tibet by its neighbour China. Never did Tibetans ask Chinese to come and 'liberate' them, destroying their culture and religion and killing hundreds of thousands of Tibetans, and sending hundreds of thousands of Han to colonise it.

personally, people should take informations from both sides with objectivities. tibetant exiles wanted to protray tibet before 1949 was a perfect world where everyone was living in harmony and other honey coated information is pure propaganda. ccp wants to protray that tibetants are much happier under ccp rule is for sure not true at all. people should live in the modern tibet, learn the culture and work in there for at least a be fore sure.

Doesn't Thailand still have a king? If it does, who owns the property--lands--in Thailand? The king and its aristocratic class, or any ordinary people who worked hard all their lives?

Are you landowner?
