Deaths in Lhasa

Publié le 14 mars 2008 par Allpeopleunite
The death toll is now 2 in the Tibetan capital Lhasa which has seen violent protests over the disruption of much more pacified demonstrations days before. The Chinese authorities allowed rioting to continue for quite a long time, all things considered. Please email your U.N. representative* as well as the Chinese mission to the United Nations to denounce this violent repression by the Chinese authorities.
P.S.- These events occur just as one is personally becoming interested in Tibet via the excellent "A Year in Tibet", a series by the BBC concerning the daily lives of Tibetan's in the Autonomous regions third largest city Gyantse, chronicling the lives of monks, shamans, entrepreneurs, and farmers as they go about their daily business.
