Forcibly Rehabilitating
« on: October 15, 2012, 04:29:48 PM »
Dr Sangay noted that China should stop the migration of Han Chinese into Tibet and gave details of the extent of the migration.

"More than 50 percent of people in urban areas of Lhasa, Tibet’s capital are Chinese, 70 percent businesses in Lhasa are owned by Chinese, 50 percent of the public sector jobs and posts in the Communist Party in Tibet belong to Chinese. On the other hand, 40 percent of Tibetan high school and college graduates are unemployed," he said.

He went on to criticise China's policy of "forcibly rehabilitating" hundreds of thousands of Tibetan nomads from their ancestral grasslands to cemented buildings, cutting them off from their traditional way of life, while leaving them “no source of earning money.”

Tibet should be on the table in Sino-India talks, says Dr Sangay
