Tibetan Students in Beijing Hold Vigil

Posted by tendor on Mar 17, 2008 in General | 1 comment

Tibetans living in foreign lands constantly carry a burden of loneliness. At times like these, when the Chinese government is killing hundreds of Tibetans in Lhasa and shooting at thousands of peaceful protesters in other parts of Tibet, it must truly be lonely and scary to be a Tibetan living in Beijing.

In a small but powerful show of courage and solidarity, dozens of Tibetan students in Beijing held a candle light vigil inside the Central University for Nationalities. We deeply admire the young Tibetans for this brave and risky act. We support your actions. We are with you.

Tibetans all over the world, including India, Nepal, Europe, Australia and North America are rising up and surrounding the Chinese embassies and consulates to show the Chinese government that until and unless they resolve the Tibet issue, we will never allow them a moment of rest.

Thank you for the great coverage on what has been happening this week. This is truly bittersweet. Sweet to see Tibetans standing up and demanding an end to the PRC’s cruel rule of their country, and bitter knowing what the PRC’s response has been and will be.

Rangzen!
