http://www.umass.edu/rso/fretibet/education.html

Extractions: Official Students for a Free Tibet Web Site Until 1949, Tibet was an independent Buddhist nation in the Himalayas which had little contact with the rest of the world. It existed as a rich cultural storehouse of the Mahayana and Vajrayana teachings of Buddhism. Religion was a unifying theme among the Tibetans as was their own language, literature, art, and world view developed by living at high altitudes, under harsh conditions, in a balance with their environment. The Dalai Lama, an individual said to be an incarnation of the Buddha of Compassion, had been both the political and spiritual leader of the country. The current Dalai Lama (the 14th) was only 24 years old when this all came to an end in 1959. The Communist Chinese invasion in 1950 led to years of turmoil, that culminated in the complete overthrow of the Tibetan Government and the self-imposed exile of the Dalai Lama and 100,000 Tibetans in 1959. Since that time over a million Tibetans have been killed. With the Chinese policy of resettlement of Chinese to Tibet, Tibetans have become a minority in their own country. Chinese is the official language. Compared to pre-1959 levels, only 1/20 monks are still allowed to practice, under the government's watch. Up to 6,000 monasteries and shrines have been destroyed. Famines have appeared for the first time in recorded history, natural resources are devastated, and wildlife depleted to extinction. Tibetan culture comes close to being eradicated there.

Extractions: A smiling young monk walks slowly up the cobbled street, fingering wooden prayer beads beneath his maroon robe. When we pass, I hear him muttering mantras under his breath. A refreshing morning breeze sweeps down from the mountains, making the prayer flags flap crisply around me. I wind my way down Temple Road to the monastery. To my right, an aged, wrinkled nun takes baby steps around a holy gompa. She reaches with arthritic effort to spin a prayer wheel. The red and black Tibetan script blurs as she moves on to the next wheel. The smell of incense wafts into the street, and I overhear rumors that His Holiness the Dalai Lama may make a public appearance tomorrow. As a young man, the Dalai Lama escaped Tibet in 1959, and was welcomed by the Indian government, who established the young leader in this former British hill station, secure from their common enemy. Tens of thousands of refugees have since followed His Holiness into exile, and with international attention drawn to Tibet over the last decade, Dharamshala has become a popular travel destination.

Extractions: The government-in-exile officials learn how democracy works in Connecticut. By Dan Levine Tenzin Norbu remembers when he first cooked a meal he could be proud of. It was 1978, and Norbu was an 8-year-old boy living in Kharapathar, the small mountainous village in India where he was born. "My mother got sick, very seriously, in the hospital," Norbu says, his English carrying the lilt of the former British colony. "We had to cook the food and take it to the hospital." His circular, deeply tanned face breaks into a wide grin as he remembers making thuk pa (Tibetan noodles) with his brother and sister for his mother using a wood-burning stove. They burned some of the bread, but his parents ate it and said it was good. "That was a time, I was very happy at that time," he says. But tonight in a Hartford home, he is cooking shatsel, an Indian dish. Three different kinds of masala meat, garam and vegetable are combined in the pan with sizzling garlic, ginger and onions. It makes your eyes water and nose hairs stand up. It's the tingmo a circular pastry that he twists into shape while humming a native melody that accompanies that shatsel, that's uniquely Tibetan, says Norbu.

Extractions: Samdhong Rinpoche, cabinet prime minister and first elected political leader of the Tibetan government-in-exile, noted on 18 November that the Tibetan government-in-exile, which resumed talks with China's Beijing Government in September this year, had expectations of, yet lacked full confidence in, the future development of ties between the two sides. Samdhong Rinpoche also pointed out at the same time that although Hu Jintao used to be the most unwelcome leader figure in Tibet, he still cherished the hope of cooperating with this new Chinese leader. Samdhong Rinpoche is currently in London seeking support from major political parties and Parliament Members in Britain and other European nations concerning the new situation in Tibet following the resumption of talks between the Tibetan government-in-exile and China in September this year. Samdhong Rinpoche stressed that the birth of the new Parliament elected through a democratic election marked the near completion of a democratization process in the structure of the Tibet government-in-exile, and also served to lay a sound foundation for talks with Beijing. He indicated that the Tibetan government-in-exile carried out talks with Beijing under the prerequisite that Tibet and China would be combined into one country in which Tibet would have its own law and its own complete democratic system. He also urged the outside world to show support for the plan of the Tibetan government-in-exile. The following is a summary of our interview with Samdhong Rinpoche.

Extractions: May 28, 1999: A Glimpse at the Tibetan Government In-Exile After a 13 hour bus journey from Delhi, I finally arrived in Dharamsala, India; the home of The 14th Dalai Lama, the Tibetan Government In-Exile, and a very large number of Tibetan refugees. During the bus drive, we were stopped for over one hour by the Indian police who carefully searched a number of bags for merchandise. Many Tibetans had to pay "taxes" or hush (bakshech) money for their goods. My bags were felt, but not openned. Apparently, this is a very common occurence on the road to Dharamsala. I was shocked by the accuracy of the Police in selecting bags that contained untaxed goods. Without a scanner, dog, or any technical equipment, they picked bags that were filled with such goods. Dharamsala is a hill station that sits in the foothills (8000+ feet) of the Himalayan Mountains. It is located in Northeastern India and the State known as Himachal Pradesh.

http://www.rangzen.org/history/views.htm

Extractions: China asserts that no country has ever recognized Tibet. China also contends that Britain masterminded the Simla Conference (1913-1914) in collusion with Tibetan pro-British individuals. Both wanted to separate Tibet from China. At the time of the Simla Conference, even though the "McMahon Line" was negotiated between Tibet and Britain, at the end of the tripartite conference on Tibet's status and boundaries, Chinese officials who were present refused to recognize the "Line" on the grounds that Tibet was subordinate to China and had no power to make any treaties.

Security policy and personnel were responsible for numerous human rights abuses. In 2000 officials stated that there were approximately 1,300 individuals in prisons serving sentences under the Law Against Counterrevolutionary Activity, a crime that no longer exists; many of these persons were imprisoned for the non-violent expression of their political views. According to Amnesty International (AI) 211 persons remain in prison for their activities during the June 1989 Tiananmen Square demonstrations. Since December 1998, at least 30 leaders of the China Democracy Party (CDP) have been given long prison sentences on subversion charges. The authorities released a few political prisoners before their terms were over, notably Zhang Jie, Han Lifa, Guo Haifeng, Cao Maobing, and Ma Zhe. Others, such as CDP activist Zhou Yongjun, who was released in March, were released after completing their sentences. At year's end several thousand political prisonersincluding Bishop An Shuxin, Cai Guihua, Han Chunsheng, Li Bifeng, Liu Jingsheng, Qin Yongmin, Shen Liangqing, Zha Jianguo, Wang Youcai, Xu Guoxing, Fang Jue, Xu Wenli, Zhang Lin, Zhang Shanguang, Zhao Changqing, Abbot Chadrel Rinpoche, Jigme Sangpo, and Ngawang Sangdrol (see Tibet addendum)remained imprisoned or under other forms of detention for the peaceful expression of their political, social, or religious views. Some of those who completed their sentences and were released from prison were kept under surveillance and prevented from taking employment or otherwise resuming normal lives. Authorities also harassed and monitored the activities of dissident's relatives.

No one even knows where the Chinese government is holding him. In 1995, due to the conflict in recognizing the reincarnation of the 11th Panchen Lama, conflict has emerged in the history of Tibetan and Chinese relations. In spite of the commencement of fragile contacts between Tibetan government in exile and Beijing, which took the form of official visits by delegations of the Tibetan government in exile during the past ten years, the situation inside Tibet has changed very little. Even after the dramatic release of long-term prisoners Tanak Jigmey Sangpo and Ngawang Sangdrol on medical grounds, the issue of the whereabouts of the 11th Panchen Lama remains totally unsolved.

Extractions: GRAVE ABUSES OF HUMAN RIGHTS FOR THE TIBETAN PEOPLE IN OCCUPIED TIBET FOR THE TIBETAN PEOPLE IN CHINESE OCCUPIED TIBET , recent reports have exposed serious human rights abuses and the denial of basic religious and political freedoms they should enjoy. An extensive study in 2001 by Amnesty International cited grave abuses ranging from the arbitrary detention of people who peacefully express their views, to gross violations of the physical integrity of the person and the right to life. Dissent and any activity perceived as a threat to the established political order continue to be repressed Torture and ill-treatment are common during arrest and in police stations, detention centers, labor camps and prisons, sometimes resulting in the death of the victims. The death penalty is widely used to instill fear into the population, particularly during crackdowns on crime. THE PRESENT SITUATION IS THE LEGACY OF DELIBERATE AND CONCERTED GENOCIDAL PRACTICES by the Chinese government, beginning in 1950 after the invasion of the Chinese army. Since that time over one fifth of the Tibetan population have died under the occupation (1.2 million people), and more than 6,000 monasteries have been destroyed.

Tibetan Govt. In Exile
Few people visited the place, and the Tibetan government in exile was still working overtime to gain legitimacy and acceptance in the eyes of the world.
http://www.lhainfo.org/tibetan_refugee.htm

Extractions: Forty years ago, in March 1959, Tibetans revolted against Chinese rule, resulting in Beijing using massive force to crush the uprising. The then 24-year-old Dalai Lama had to escape to India to seek refuge. Thousands of Tibetans followed him into what was to become their new homeland. Then prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru offered Dharamsala to house the Dalai Lama and some of his people who would start work on both rehabilitating the refugees and working for their country's freedom. The location was ideal. Up in the lower Himalayas, at a cool 1700 metres, it was ideal for the Tibetans not used to the oppressive heat of the plains. However, the vast majority of Tibetans would settle down in Karnataka where the state government gave them land to cultivate, get used to the heat, and prosper. When the Dalai Lama set up his office and residence in Mcleodganj, it was just another hill station left behind by the British, who would march up every year in summer. A small chapel, the St John's Church in the Wilderness, was mute testimony to their presence in a bygone era.
Indian, Sikkim, China And A Vexing Tibetan Lama - Kagyu Asia News
The Dalai Lama and the Tibetan government in exile may become less vocal in their appeals for Urgyen Trinley to return to Rumtek.
http://www.kagyu-asia.com/n_india_sikkim_china.html

Extractions: It is said that the Black Hat of the Karmapas is the physical representation of a "spiritual crown" woven from the hair of 100,000 female deities and that when the Karmapa places it on his head, he has to hold it down with his hand to prevent it flying away. A gift to the Fifth Karmapa from the Chinese Ming Dynasty Emperor Tai Ming Chen in the 15th century, today the crown of this high Tibetan Buddhist lama is locked away in the hillside monastery of Rumtek in Sikkim, an Indian state bordering Tibet. For many Himalayan people, he who sits in this monastery and wears this crown is the Karmapa. It was in a quest for the fabled Black Hat that the young 17th Karmapa Urgyen Trinley is said to have fled Chinese government oppression in Tibet in 2000, aiming to reach the Sikkim monastery that his predecessor, the 16th Karmapa, built after he fled from Tibet in 1959. Now, in a major blow to the second-best-known lama after the Dalai Lama, a decision by the Indian Supreme Court has in effect blocked him and his supporters from claiming the monastery and its crown. Through the ruling on July 5 his right to enter the monastery was said to have been "irrevocably" rescinded. The court decision solves a difficult problem for the Indian government at a time when it wants to put relations with old rival China on a better footing. Sikkim has been a point of contention between India and China for many years. The controversy over Rumtek Monastery caused unrest in Sikkim. Now China appears to have tacitly accepted India's control over the state.

Extractions: FOREIGN POLICY The meeting between Prime Minister A.B. Vajpayee and the Dalai Lama has caused further strain in Sino-Indian relations. JOHN CHERIAN A MEETING between Prime Minister A. B. Vajpayee and the Dalai Lama, in the third week of October has created a controversy. The Tibetan spiritual leader has had meetings with Prime Ministers I.K. Gujral and H.D. Deve Gowda. But those meetings took place in an atmoshpere of improving relations with China. Given the strains in Sino-Indian relations since Pokhran-II, China does not see the latest meeting as a routine one. On the Indian side, the Prime Minister's Office issued a brief press release about the meeting. The Chinese Government reacted strongly to the news. A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman said in Beijing: "The meeting ... violated the commitment of the Indian side of not allowing the Dalai Lama to engage in anti-China political activities in India." He said that it had hurt the feelings of the Chinese people and expressed his country's "deep resentment and regret". The Dalai Lama, he said, was not merely a religious figure but a political exile who "has engaged in anti-China activities aimed to split the motherland and undermine national harmony." The Chinese had protested when the Dalai Lama met Gujral and Deve Gowda but the language used then was comparatively mild. It has been the Chinese policy to lodge a protest whenever government officials of any country met the Dalai Lama. The Chinese Government protested against President Bill Clinton's meeting with the Dalai Lama in the office of Vice-President Al Gore when the Dalai Lama visited Washington in 1996.
