while many in Tibet wanted to resist the Chinese, their government told them that being nice was the right thing to do

Students for a Free Tibet (SFT) executive director Lhadon Tethong and Indian-born deputy executive director Tenzin Dorjee shared their dream of an independent Tibet and views on some current issues in Taiwan

“I consider myself a Tibetan and a Canadian both at the same time,” Lhadon said, while sitting in a meeting room at Fujian Catholic University (FJU) before delivering a speech with Tenzin about Tibetan history and the Tibetan struggle to gain independence from China to a group of FJU students yesterday afternoon.

In fact, the FJU was the sixth university that Lhadon and Tzenzin have spoken at since their arrival in Taiwan last Wednesday, and there are two to three more universities to come in their schedule. Lhadon’s father was a Tibetan refugee in India, while her mother was a Canadian who worked at Tibetan refugee camps in India for 12 years. Although Lhadon was born and raised in Canada and barely speaks Tibetan, she can understand it and still has a strong sense of Tibetan identity. “My feelings for Tibet are very strong although we’re far apart,” Lhadon said. “My inspiration came from the story of our parents and story of our people, and for a large part, from the Dalai Lama.”

Haha! What an oxymoronic statement from Tethong. The HHDL publicly and officially declare that Tibet is part of China and that he only advocates autonomy for Tibet. Now the SFT leader says she is for independence. So the SFT disrespects the HHDL and is at odds with the official position of the TGIE. So folks, is the Dala Lama insincere or are you folks disrespecting the HHDL?

That's sad. Why can't tibs think for themselves instead of being mindless bots for once?

Just a kind of curious, Can a tibetan living in tibet today consider him or her both a tibetan and a chinese at the same time? He or she can also enjoy the opportuties of fast growing economy , while also keep her tibetan identity. I a kind of feel chinese and tibetan culture complementary to each other. One is very much spritual , the other is very pragmatic. One is very enterprising , the other is very laid back and life enjoying.

You complete idiots ! Stop lying ! No one gives a monkey´s arse what you think !

No one is FOR complete independence ! No one has to be !

Whether you accept it or not !

Tibet WILL be completely independent !

And those chinese people that want to live there will live there of their own free will...and will behave themselves !

Everyone else can go back to where they came from !


It´s so simple...and if you want to quote His Holiness all of a sudden...then also quote that He said the question of independence is not His issue but that of the people of Tibet !

We all saw in March what the people of Tibet think about CHINK ARSEHOLES !

With all your brutality, all your supposed power the monks and the nuns and the people of Tibet stood up....no one cares what you arseholes say !

You prove your stupidity on a daily basis.

You have no pride in yourselves ( thrown out of this forum but bounce back because this place is of utmost importance to you )

Your comments and the simple fact that you exist here proves how weak and unstable the CHINKS are !

As I have said before...a laughing stock WORLDWIDE !

2009 is going to be really hard for you CHEAPOS !

And COMPLETE TIBETAN INDEPENDENCE will come into view !

Hey Joe, no one gives a crap about what you think. Although I cannot stop you from dreaming. The fact is Tibet is part of China. So are you gonna fight the Chinese in Tibet and help the theocracy back to Lhasa? LOL! make sure you can afford the air ticket to Delhi, then make sure you have the "air" to tackle those high passes. Acting like a complete idiot at European train stations is not going to get Tibet independent. China knows the true intent of the TGIE, that's why your exile Tib friends will be stuck overseas in an eternity. Haha!

As I said...your pathetic existence in this forum says it all !

Why are you here if you all don´t care ?

A 50cent piece of CHINK KRAP can pile up all the smileys he can find....it´s not gonna change the fact that CHINKLAND as you know and blow it is crumbling before our very eyes !

So slanty eyed dikkless one give us your best shot !

ps...the chinese in Tibet better learn quick to behave themselves or they could be mistaken for CHINKS...they should start taking lessons...basic lessons in cooking, going for a s***, brushing their teeth, and wiping their yellow arses after going for a s*** !

No one is asking too much of them...just to behave like humans !

Now go fukk yourself !

HH Dalai Lama has never declare that Tibet is part of China infact HH Dalai Lama said Tibet will stay under part of China but as it's own system like Hong Kong.
Which part of sentence did you understand?
Why are you trying to misinterprete?
Besides the above mentioned is HH Dalai Lama's thinking, so that there will be benifit on both side and No Blood s*** at all. Every body is happy, maybe few will not be but that's the fact.

That is HH Dalai Lama's thinking. Keep in mind not every Tibetans are Dalai Lama.
There is only one HH Dalai Lama and that is Tenzing Gyaltso.
Rest of us are just normal Tibetans, who have all different kind of idea and thinking.
Tibet issue is crystal clear to our mind that Tibet was not and is not part of China and Tibetans are not Chinese at all neither Chinese people have ever considered Tibetans as Chinese.
So Lhadon and SFT and TYC are staying firm on their right to seek Independent Tibet.

Disrespect from Tibetans is imposible, time has change so disagree is possible.
Disagreeing HH Dalai Lama is not disrespect but shows how much Tibetans have changed, to express individual or groups idea that disagree with HH Dalai Lama and HH Dalai Lama also respect the rights of every Tibetans unlike Chinese leaders that merely listens to public.

Classical economics have a suggestion to kickstart economic activity, pay people to dig holes and after that pay them to fill up the holes. With the money they earned at digging and filling holes will provide the impetus of more buying and selling of goods and services.

Your pocket must be full of COMMUNIST DOLLARS for all the dirty jobs that they assign to you. Don't lie. Every body knows China Lies, People die.

There is no university in Taiwan called Fujian Catholic University.

However, there is a university in Taiwan called Fu Jen Catholic University (輔仁大學).

The propagandist who wrote the above article misled readers to think that this Catholic University is located in the Fujian (福建) province of China.

Ofcus it is Fu Jen Catholic University in Taiwan. You Moron!
It is mention in Taiwan. Right? Dumb head
By the way there is no Fujian Catholic University in China either. Right?
So where it could be.
Ofcus in Taiwan.
Don't think every body is stupid as Chinese in China. Everybody outside China is smart enough to know where is Taiwan.

Hey! Welcome back! One question...where's your sexy little avatar, HAOLEPUKKE?

HHDL told you guys to talk to the Chinese people -- but you guys cannot even tell the difference between 輔仁 and 福建.

Next time you guys may confuse horse and mom since they sound the same in Chinese!

In your case, 福建 and 輔仁 ARE THE SAME THING!!!! I repeat, where is your sexy little avatar, haolepukke?

I think everyone should relax a little bit. Whoever rewrote the article at the top of this forum is probably guilty of a typo.

The reporter did not write "Fujian" in the original story. They wrote "Fujen".

I am sitting here in Taiwan with a copy of the article from the Taipei Times. It clearly says "Lhadon said, while sitting in a meeting room at Fujen Catholic University".

Taiwan is notorious for inconsistencies in romanization of Mandarin pronunciation, so it is not abnormal nor a hidden political trick to at one place refer to 輔仁 as "Fu Jen" and another as "Fujen" (though the latter may be more consistent with pinyin).

Looks like a newspaper print to internet transfer typo, and no reason for anyone to call afoul.
