Communist Annexationists Cause Economic Disparity Among Uighur
The communist regime should stop blaming westerners, especially single individuals for these common problems in the communist controlled areas. Just looking at this tells me a lot about communist colonialism in central Asia. Communist annexationists should stop transplanting Han to these regions because the communists favor them by transplanting them, and the communist party gives them business’s and money, and the ethnic Han [the Chinese] don’t help the local community because their Uighur people. That’s the problem, it’s colonialism in the 21st century, and unfortunately it’s still happening.
Local officials say they would like to hire Uighurs, but have trouble finding qualified candidates. “One common problem of the western region is that the education and cultural level of the people here is quite low,” said Wang Lequan, Xinjiang’s Communist Party secretary.
Love how they always talk below others…. as if their honor is better than the Uighurs honor. They use the same mentality with regard to the Tibetan people.
They claim these regions belonged to the Han Dynasty, that might be plausible, though not the Communist Dynasty, their is a BIG difference. The Mongolian’s ruled much of those area’s before the Chinese people, and China’s borders were clearly marked to keep others out, but the Mongolian Empire fell because it was to big. Then all those states ruled themselves, but some groups want to alleged that they ruled it as if they were the Mongolian Empire. It’s unfortunate the communists party officials have destroyed so much of Chinese culture, much like they’re destroying the Tibetan culture over the generations. It’s understandable that other regions have their own cultural practices regardless of where they may live within alleged borders, but people should be able to practice their own culture, not be forced on with alleged Han communist party culture. Communism isn’t even part of Han Chinese culture, it’s a recent practice, but definitely shouldn’t be forced on Uighur.
The Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region (XUAR), a territory in western China, accounts for one-sixth of China’s land and is home to about 20 million people from thirteen major ethnic groups. The largest of these groups is the Uighurs [PRON: WEE-gurs], a predominantly Muslim community with ties to Central Asia. Some Uighurs call China’s presence in Xinjiang a form of imperialism, and they stepped up calls for independence —sometimes violently— in the 1990s through separatist groups like the East Turkestan Islamic Movement. The Chinese government has reacted by promoting the migration of China’s ethnic majority, the Han, to Xinjiang. Beijing has also strengthened economic ties with the area and tried to cut off potential sources of separatist support from neighboring states that are linguistically and ethnically linked with the Uighurs.
I think the communists should be relocated!
The Chinese communist party complains about what American’s did to the Native Americans, yet this is what they are doing to the Tibetan people in the 20th & 21st century?
The American government has recognized the wrongs of what the early Americans did to the Native American population, probably not enough, but that doesn’t give anyone else the right to reenact those hateful deeds, especially when those deeds have been recognized as being inhuman and against Human Rights in the 20th and 21st century by many nations! It’s genocide! No justification for it, but greed!
What ever happened to the promises the communists gave to the Olympic Committee? Seem less than honorable.
Chinese police shoot dam protesters, Tibetan government-in-exile claims
Six Tibetan women were shot by China security forces during a protest over a hydroelectric dam project in Sichuan province, the Tibetan government-in-exile claimed today.
The women were demonstrating against a forcible relocation programme in Yajiang, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Region, on Sunday morning, when public security officers and armed police opened fire, according to the statement from Dharamsala.
The condition of the women is unknown as they were reportedly taken away by the authorities. Their names were given as Tsering Lhamo, Rigzin Lhamo, Dolma, Kelsang, Dolkar and Khaying.
Other Tibetan sources were unable to confirm the shooting. Chinese government officials said they would look into the claims.
Several dams are under construction in the area. Among them is the Lianghekou hydroelectric plant, which is scheduled to begin operation in 2010. [read more]

Nonchalant Attitude Toward Life and Different Cultures! No Moral Sway
Morals isn’t just how you treat human’s, and it starts when they’re children. If people can kill animals without any heart, then how much more your fellow human being?
Their are numerous events/videos depicting how animals are treated. Gandhi also said “the greatness of a nation and it’s moral progress can be judged by how it’s animals are treated.”
There’s a few videos circulating showing how animals are treated for their fur, and China has a big fur trade, the animals are skinned alive without any form of sedation. The people skinning them stomp on their little heads, hang them and cut the areas, so they can rip the fur off their body. The animals are left skinned and alive in a pile. See Video! Warning, actions are very graphic! China’s Fur Trade!
That kind of nonchalant attitude toward life is very scary, and I fear for the Tibetan people, and their culture and homeland, while in the hands of these communists.
BTW, the constant, repeated saying: ” the Dalai Lama is masterminding separatist movements” isn’t believable! It’s not the Dalai Lama calling for full freedom, it’s the people, people like me and other friends and neighbors because WE see what the communist party is up to. They’ve already lied to the Olympic committee, so how can we believe anything else they say? The Dalai Lama has constantly called for unity, and has asked for talks with the communist party, however they keep reneging.
China must get rid of its autocratic policies and install moral authority if it wants to establish itself as a true global superpower, the Dalai Lama said Wednesday.
The Tibetan spiritual leader, visiting Japan before a two-week trip to the United States, criticized Beijing for suppressing minorities and waging a “propaganda campaign” during an antigovernment rally in Lhasa, the capital, last year.
“Such a big nation acting like a child,” he told reporters in Narita, Chiba Prefecture.
The Tibetan leader has been living in exile in India since 1959, when the Chinese army crushed resistance in the high, mountainous region.
China has accused the Dalai Lama of masterminding separatist movements while it clamps down to take stricter control of what it calls the Tibet Autonomous Region. It sentenced two Tibetans to death earlier this month for instigating deadly fires during anti-China protests in Lhasa just months before the Beijing Olympics last year.
The Dalai Lama condemned the rulings, saying there was “no rule of law and everything was controlled by the party” that single-handedly runs the communist state. He said the verdict was politically motivated and China’s latest effort to distract the public from reality.
The Dalai Lama, whose real name is Tenzin Gyatso, said the truth behind the riots in the holy Buddhist city must be brought to light and urged the media to investigate.[read more]

Obama Should Listen to American’s, not the Communist Party of China!
Well, Obama should listen to American’s more than he listens to the Communist Government of China! As an American patriot, Obama should meet with the Dalai Lama, so we can all hear the other side of the story, instead of alway’s having to listen the Communist Party. However, we American’s already know the truth about the alleged “splitism,” and it’s more like annexation than splitism. Aside from that any body of people should be allowed to split, especially when those people are being trampled upon, and their culture destroyed in their own country.
We’re living in the 21st century, and this shouldn’t even be happening when there are international laws in place against genocide. Tibet was annexed by the communist government, and they did everything they possibly could then and now to destroy any history of an Independent Tibet. There is enough evidence proving independence, to include a diplomatic passport, UN evidence, and several countries who had relations with Tibet long before the invasion of Independent Tibet.
China said Thursday that President Barack Obama should not meet the Dalai Lama, the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader, when he visits the United States in October.
Although a meeting has not been confirmed, every president since George H.W. Bush has met the Dalai Lama, raising the ire of China, which says the Nobel Peace laureate is bent on splitting Tibet from China.
“We firmly oppose the Dalai’s engagement in separatist activities in any country under whatever capacity and under whatever name,” Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said when asked to comment on a possible meeting.
“We have made representations to the United States urging the U.S. to honor its commitments and not allow the Dalai to engage in separatist activities in the United States,” she told a regular news conference. [read more]

China executes 2 for deadly attack on police
That’s sick!
No regard for any kind of life! Especially since it’s the communist paramilitary police that started all this. The Genocide Olympics had already been tarnished by the way the communists have treated the Tibetan people on the Tibetan Plateau and else where. When China was given the opportunity of hosting the Olympics, one of the promises was to be more open and allow for more freedom of the Tibetan people and foreign journalists, well we can all see what happened with that.
The communist party imprisons any one who speaks up on truth regardless of being a Tibetan citizen or Chinese citizen. Talk about the true history of Tibet, go to prison, but I’ve never seen that on the Monopoly board.
China executed two members of a Muslim minority on Thursday after finding the men guilty of killing 17 police in an attack last year in the country’s far west that Beijing said was an attempt to sabotage the Beijing Olympics.
An overseas activist group called for an investigation of the men’s trial and allegations that they were tortured in custody.
The executions in China’s Xinjiang region came a day after two Tibetans were sentenced to death for arson during riots in Lhasa last spring, showing the government’s determination to tamp down unrest in regions that have chafed under its rule. An overseas group said security has been tightened in cities in Xinjiang with house-to-house searches of residents.
The attack on police last August in the city of Kashgar near the border with Pakistan and Afghanistan was the most brazen of several in the weeks around the Olympics, marring what the government and many Chinese hoped would be a showcase of China as a modern power.
Abdurahman Azat and Kurbanjan Hemit were convicted in December of ramming a truck into a group of police and then lobbing bombs at the officers and stabbing them on Aug. 4, four days before the start of the games, according to the court. [read more]

Take Action: China: Stop the Executions!
Here China is occupying another country, Tibet, and the Tibetan people are peacefully protesting for their freedom. No country is helping, probably because they are not at “war.” Interesting how country’s will run to another countries aid when they are fighting and killing each other with all sorts of weapons, yet Tibetan’s have no machine guns, tanks or personal gear to fight a war. The Tibetan’s are protesting for their freedom peacefully, though, the Chinese paramilitary police often instigate riots, and rightly so for the Tibetan people, as any one else would do as a human being.
I find the communist party very disturbing for executing people for peacefully protesting, though there was a riot, that riot was instigated by the communist paramilitary police. The communist chines party is at fault, not the Tibetan people.
China: Stop the Executions!
On April 8th, China sentenced two Tibetans, Lobsang Gyaltsen and Loyak, to death for their alleged involvement in last year’s protests in Lhasa. Two others, Phuntsok and Kangtsuk, were also sentenced to death but with a two year reprieve, and Dawa Sangpo was sentenced to life imprisonment.These harsh sentences signal an alarming escalation in the Chinese government’s campaign to punish and intimidate Tibetans who dare to speak out against Chinese rule.

Tourist Blocked from Tibetan Town
I did not think the communist China government would keep it’s honor with regard to the Olympic agreement, and their treatment of Tibetan People or the international community!
Armed police were stationed throughout the capital of Chinese-controlled Tibet and blocked roads to the eastern part of the region, Hong Kong tourists said Friday, in the latest sign of tensions ahead of next week’s anniversary of anti-government riots.
Paramilitary officers were spotted all over Lhasa and the atmosphere was “tense,” a 33-year-old Hong Kong traveler told The Associated Press in a phone interview.
Tensions have been high in Tibet and Tibetan-inhabited regions in western China in the run-up to several anniversaries this month, including the 50th anniversary of a failed 1959 uprising during which Tibet’s traditional Buddhist leader, the Dalai Lama, fled into exile in India.
This month also marks the one-year anniversary of massive anti-government protests that spread across Tibetan areas in China following a deadly riot in Lhasa on March 14. China has said 22 people died in the violence, while Tibetan supporters say many times that number were killed in demonstrations and the subsequent military crackdown. [read on]

China’s Tibetan areas not celebrating the new year
The communist government claims they are not destroying the culture of Tibet, yet they continue to prevent the Tibetan New Year celebrations through intimidation of their military, and/or bastardize it with communist practices.
China’s Tibetan areas not celebrating the new year
Only a handful of pilgrims gathered here last weekend at the historic Labrang monastery, normally bustling before the Tibetan New Year.
“There was a war in Lhasa this year. Lots of Tibetans were killed,” one resident murmured, referring to protests last March against Chinese rule that broke out in the Tibetan capital and spread to other cities in western China, including Xiahe. The unrest was the largest and most sustained in decades.
“There is no new year festival for us,” the woman said.
The Dalai Lama, Tibet’s spiritual leader, called this week on Tibetans to skip festivities surrounding the new year, which begins Wednesday, saying they would be inappropriate after the Chinese government’s heavy-handed crackdown on the protests. Tibetans across the region say they are still in mourning.
The Dalai Lama also denounced Chinese-backed celebration plans as “provocations.” [read on]

China blocks access to New York Times Web site
What happened to greater freedom and democracy for giving China the Olympics? I’m not hearing any good about human rights or democracy coming out China! All I see are questionable products tainted with poison in our food and toys being shipped to America.
China blocks access to New York Times Web site
China has blocked access to the New York Times Web site, the newspaper said Saturday, days after the central government defended its right to censor online content it deems illegal.Computer users who logged on in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou received a message that the site was not available when they tried to connect on Friday morning, the paper said. Some users were cut of as early as Thursday evening, it said.
The Web site remained inaccessible from Beijing Saturday.
It was not clear if the move was meant to block specific content on the newspaper’s Web site or if it was a return to stricter censorship of the Internet in general. Beijing loosened some media and Internet controls during the 2008 Summer Olympics – gestures that were meant to show the international community that the games had brought greater freedom to the Chinese people.
A spokesman for the Foreign Ministry said they do not deal with Web sites. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, which regulates the Internet, could not be reached for comment.
Earlier this week, Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao defended China’s right to censor Web sites that have material deemed illegal by the government, saying that other countries regulate Internet usage too.
During the August games, China allowed access to long-barred Web sites such as the British Broadcasting Corp. and Human Rights Watch after an outcry from foreign reporters who complained that Beijing was failing to live up to its pledges of greater media freedom.
The New York Times said Beijing had blocked the Chinese-language Web site of the BBC, and Web sites of Voice of America, Asiaweek, and Ming Pao, a Hong Kong newspaper, earlier in the week. But apart from Ming Pao the sites were all accessible Friday, it said.
Ming Pao’s online site was still inaccessible Saturday in Beijing.
China has the most online users in the world with more than 250 million, but it has also put in place a sophisticated system to police Web sites for sensitive material and routinely blocks sites that support Tibetan independence or the region’s spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama.
A spokeswoman for The Times, Catherine J. Mathis, told the paper that there did not appear to be a technical issue. Users in Japan, Hong Kong, and the U.S. were also not experiencing difficulties, the paper said.

Octogenarian Tibetan Sentenced to 7 Years’ Imprisonment
China is still at it, all while the world turns away. They had their Summer Olympics, but China has not honored its alleged commitment for greater civil rights of the Tibetan people.
How does a country destroy a people and its culture? They destroy it by imprisoning or killing its traditional practitioners of that culture. When the teacher is gone, then the students cannot learn their traditional ways.
China uses some trumped up charge and “splitist” theory to imprison Tibetan teachers. What did Norbu do? He’s a traditional printer!
Octogenarian Tibetan Sentenced to 7 Years’ Imprisonment
The international community should protest the imprisonment and secret sentencing of Paljor Norbu, an 81-year-old Tibetan traditional printer, and seek his immediate exoneration and unconditional release, Human Rights Watch said yesterday.According to HRW, Norbu was taken by the police from his home in Lhasa on October 31, 2008, on suspicion that he had printed “prohibited material,” including the banned Tibetan flag. During his detention, judicial authorities refused to inform his relatives that he was being detained, or to reveal the charges against him, HRW said on its website. “He was tried in secret in November and sentenced to seven years in prison. A letter informing his family of the sentence was then hand-delivered to them. His current whereabouts are unknown.”
“Just about any material on Tibet that lacks the Chinese Communist Party’s explicit blessing is ‘prohibited material,’” said Sophie Richardson, Asia advocacy director at Human Rights Watch. “But no one should be jailed for printing flags, books, or pictures just because a government would prefer to suppress those ideas – that’s why freedom of expression is a basic right.”
