Answer 5

ah... here we go again...

Not all Tibetans want to be independent but anyhow... do you really think they'd become a democracy, and freedom will be cast upon... some BS... usually when a country like that goes independent they become more corrupted than anything on earth.

Stop calling them Tibetans. They are Chinese... just like the people from HK, Macau... They're all Chinese. If those French up in Canada are considered French Canadian, and the Blacks in USA are African American... then we should call those people from Tibet Autonomous Region / Tibet Province - Tibetan Chinese.

Answer 6

the people of tibet want to be free. Since china took over tibet, the dali lama is being supressed because he doesn't follow the rules of china. TIbet wants to be free so tehy are free to praise and honor the dahli lama instead of listening and being punished by the chinese government for what they believe in. Even though they have silent and non-violent strikes, the monks of tibet are being beaten and killed by the dozen. The chinese government is obviously denying the fact that they are injuring the strikers. China is a horrible country.

Answer 9

On April 25, China offered to hold "contact and consultation with Dalai's private representative." Western governments heaved a collective sigh of relief. The 2008 U.S.-EU Summit declaration, for instance, welcomed China's gesture, calling for a "results-orientated dialogue." Experience has taught the Tibetans to be more guarded. The Dalai Lama welcomed "serious" talks, not empty gestures. Tibet's Prime Minister in-exile Samdhong Rinpoche, called China's original offer a "good sign," but on June 8 he saw "very little chance of an agreement with China on core issues."



Circumspection is warranted. Beijing keeps stating preconditions that the Dalai Lama has repeatedly addressed. He denied seeking independence, opposed violence and supported the Beijing Olympics. Meanwhile, on April 30, the state-run China Daily said the Dalai Lama "is spewing lies." On June 7, the Communist Party's People's Daily claimed he "planned" the Tibetan uprising and infected monks who allegedly caused explosions in Chamdo with "separatist thoughts." Further, Beijing has delayed the seventh round of talks scheduled for June 11, citing earthquake relief work. Yet Beijing just hosted Russian President Medvedev, among others, so it's something of a mystery why three or four Tibetans in Beijing would get in the way of relief work in Sichuan.

Is Beijing interested in serious dialogue? This is an important question because when raised expectations are dashed, dialogue becomes dangerous. When talks are on the horizon, Tibetans think that deliverance from political powerlessness, cultural depression and economic marginalization is close. The possibility of being united with the Dalai Lama lifts their sunken spirits. Past experience suggests that failed dialogue provokes Tibetan protests.

Between 1987 and 1992, Lhasa was rocked by 140 protests and riots; martial law was imposed in Lhasa in 1989. Many Tibetans paid with their lives, others spent years in prison or labor camps. The protests took place after the Sino-Tibetan dialogue that began in 1978 collapsed.

Four exile fact-finding missions and two exploratory talks took place between 1979 and 1985. Dialogue failed as a result of widely divergent positions, but the balance of compromise favored Beijing. The Dalai Lama controversially gave up independence for autonomy, while Beijing simply denied the existence of a Tibet issue.

The euphoria of renewed links with the Dalai Lama and promise of greater autonomy, palpable in the early 1980s, gave way to despair and anger as talks floundered and Beijing saw economic development as a panacea for Tibetan grievances. In 1984, Tibet was opened for Chinese migration despite the reservations of leading Tibetan cadres. The influx of Chinese caused great resentment. More fundamental political, cultural and economic reasons existed, but the failure of talks and the dashing of hopes clearly contributed to the protests.

The recent and ongoing round of over 100 riots and protests is no exception. A sense of political hopelessness and cultural depression had gripped the Tibetan psyche in the face of hard-line policies, Chinese migration and the continued exile of the Dalai Lama. Even in heavily censored blogs and popular media from Tibet, the Dalai Lama's exile and the fate of Tibetan identity under Chinese political and cultural imperialism are lamented at great risk.

Against this backdrop of despair, dialogue resumed in September 2002, raising Tibetan hopes again. Immediately, Beijing indicated that it was not interested in meaningful negotiations. The Dalai Lama's representatives were not formally recognized and his scaled-down Middle Way policy was derided. In 2005, Zhang Qingli, Tibet's Party Secretary, stepped up the anti-Dalai lama campaign calling him a "false religious leader." On Sept. 30, 2006, Chinese troops shot dead two Tibetans escaping across the Himalayas.

On July 18, 2007, Beijing announced "Order No. 5" prohibiting Tibetan lamas from reincarnating without "prior approval" from Beijing. As ludicrous as this sounds, it's clear that Beijing has the selection of the next Dalai Lama in mind. Not surprisingly, Tibetan resentment grew.

After six rounds of dialogue, which the Tibetans handled with great delicacy, nothing was achieved. The Dalai Lama conceded on March 10, 2008, that "on the fundamental issue, there has been no concrete result." For the next several days monks and nuns in Lhasa demonstrated peacefully, but were beaten up and arrested.

On March 14, some protestors turned violent and attacked symbols of Chinese colonialism (not of capitalism or modernity as leftist pundits are trying to portray), including Chinese migrants.

Through their actions and written and verbal slogans, the protestors were reinforcing and reiterating the Dalai Lama's positions. Clearly, the stalled dialogue with Beijing was in their minds. Sadly, due to the Chinese authorities' brutal crackdown, many paid with their
