Did you view any of the videos I linked to? No, you didn’t did you? Tibetans stopped posting on the internet and calling from their cell phones after the crackdown in Lhasa because they were being rounded up, beaten and thrown in prison. The few who did get messages out talked of the general repression, the killings of monks and farmers, the beatings and the round ups.
Tibetan themselves are devided ,as for the attitude to Han-Chinese.
1, Most Tibetan citizens in Lhasa ddn’t support the riot at all. Instead,they helped lots of hurt Han-Chinese. reason? very simple, Tibetan citizens benefit from the modernization of Tibet most. They don’t want such modernization to be stopped by the riot or any unstablity.
2,The Main participants in the riot were the young peasants in rural area. Why? because those young tibetan peasants benefits much less from modernization than those Tibetan citizens,due to the lonely location and less education.
Many rural Tibetan even can’t speak Mandarin,let alone read/write Chinese. In CHina, those who can’t speak Mandarin can’t find any decent jobs in cities.
But,the less education of Tibetan is not the fault of CHinese government .in fact ,Chinese government provides free education and speical subsidy to Tibetan students.But Government’s help doesn’t always work. As we see in USA ,governmental helps doesn’t help black and aboriginal Indians out of less educaiton either.
3,the leaders of the riot are the monks
why?
very simple....The monk class in Tibet feel their posion seriously thretened by the modernizaton of Tibetan.
Monk’s class still rules the mentality of lot of less-education tibetan,espeically those rural Tibetan.
For examle,many ill tibetan eat the dejecta of monks,because they believes the dejecta of monks can cure their diseases.
well I have seen your links,but what you provide are some material digested by CNN( I am sorry to tell you that in CHina ,CNN is as disreputable as CCTV,the official throat of Chinese government)
