Lhasa Door

veritablement!

So many colourful details there!

.

The Han imported population in Lhasa is now quite large and lives in modern apartment complexes. There is very little integration between the Tibetan community and the Han. By sheer weight of numbers and by development in the international modern style, the Tibetan culture is being diluted. Not lost yet though ...

... of course a problem is being created for the long-term as there are now two distinct cultures in Tibet. If Tibet becomes independent then what will become of the ethnic Han who have been moved there? I see problems ahead whichever way things move forward.

Of course that is no reason for the Chinese occupation of Tibet to continue and the Tibetan people have the right to live in the way they choose.

I enjoyed my brief time there and talking with the Tibetan people I met. I know that they want a free Tibet. I have heard it from their lips.

So I wish for a Free Tibet.

beautiful thank you

Many thanks. Please see my comment above. I am not optimistic that the change that is needed will come about but I do hope and pray for it.

... and thank you to those who have made this document a favourite but have not commented.
