Can someone explain the whole Tibet issue to me? I've been like watching news about it but I don't really understand the issue I'm just confusedd
lol where do we start...... tibet dont want to be part of china, china wont let go because its part of their country (in a nutshell) but theres ALOT of details under the surface.
yep, wikipedia is the best site to go to cos it summerises it well and is less opinionated that other sites.
Should we eat your lunch for you too? No offense, but I think you'll find your meals all the more satisfying if you learn to chew it for yourself. Considering that Tibet (both pro or con vis a vis PRC) is in the news just about every day, it really isn't all that hard. Pick up a newspaper or two.-rolleyes Ralph
yup. that's in a nutshell. and the recent issue is that China have been beating those monks and suppressing their right to demonstrate.
I think he did a pretty good job of summarizing the whole issue... Theres a lot more details about it... if you wanna know feel free to PM me... just saw this... a lot of good info http://www.dramasian.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30797
just have a look at newspapers or do a search on google. there will be a lot of info about this on the net.
wow, if the monk killing is true, then china must be hungry for that country. It reminds me alittle of poland and germany..
Well, it is EXACTLY the perfect timing to air the dirty laundry for China. I mean, it's open secret that China is oppressive in policy (and practice), the Western world turned a blind eye to it conveniently because they relies on China's cheap labour to keep their profit margin. And now, the whole world wide protest is going to drag China's reputation through the dirt, and to be frank? I figure it's just dessert, then again, it's a huge vicious cycle that does nothing constructive (oppressive government -> stupid people -> justifies more oppressive and iron-fist policing) I personally think it wouldn't change anything, all these protest and whatnot, but I do sit back and wait to see China fall from its "booming prosperity" (because it's imminent, not unlike the US and Canada, only worst due to government with even less transparency).
