I’d never been to this website before, it has amazing news titles like “Article disproves Dalai Lama’s historical views in March 31 speech.” It seems to be China’s official news source for the Tibetan region, reporting that China has spent millions of dollars in repairing the Potala Palace, Norbulingka and Sagya Monastary. I can only wonder how much damage or lack of respect was shown during the rebuild for the traditional religious artifacts. “The reparation of the three key cultural relics is an important part in the conservation of the Tibetan culture,” said State Councilor Liu Yandong at the ceremony. Good of them to be so concerned! This accompanying picture does nothing more than show that they’ve planted some flowers on the western border of the building…
The websites historical accounts are also awesome – “ The founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949 ended the dark history of the semi-colonial, semi-feudal China, realized unification of the country, unity of ethnic groups and people’s democracy, and brought hope to the Tibetan people that they could control their own destiny in the large family of the motherland.”
