This is a bit rich coming from you Sikyong

[Ringo Starr]

The first photo is of Sikyong Sangay at the inaugration of the first ever CTA-organised ‘Tibetan Women’s Empowerment Conference’ on 21 February 2017. Sikyong Sangay said that the organisation of the conference is a step in the right direction to carry forward the shared vision of His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the Central Tibetan Administration to promote leadership and compassionate qualities of women in social and political development of the Tibetan community.

The second photo is of Sikyong Sangay in Japan on 15 February 2017 flanked by Mr Shimura Hakubun, former Education Minister of Japan and the current Chairman of Japanese Parliamentary Support Group for Tibet and  Ms Yoshiko Sakurai, a veteran journalist and head of think tank, Japan Institute of National Fundamentals. Both of Sikyong's friends are also key members of what TheDailyBeast calls a "religious cult" called Nippon Kaigi who among other things advocate a return to monarchy, the expulsion of immigrants, the revoking of equal rights for women, restrictions on freedom of speech. The group has also repeatedly denied the Japanese army's role in recruiting comfort women from China and Korea during WW2.

Judging from his mafiosi, revivalist, anti-women Japanese associates, the neo-feudalist theocrat mini-puppet Sikyong probably wants to promote the compassionate qualities of comfort slave women in his envisioned future Tibet.

I spy with my little eye Sikyong's favorite stooge in the far right. Nice to know Ms Sharling gets invited to all of the hottest events in Dharamsala thanks to her connection with the Sikyong. Didn't realize this is what Sikyong meant when he inaugurated a conference on female empowerment

KarmaRangdrol,

You will love this picture. The two sweeties are with HH Dalai Lama and she has plonked herself right in the foreground of the picture.

This is just a reflection of the sad state of affairs for the Tibetan leadership. Huge amounts of funds are poured generously into their coffers by western sympathisers but little is done to uplift Tibetan people and society. With such funds, you would think they would work harder to uplift the poorer compatriots and do much more for the Tibetan cause.

Instead, money squandered in personal pockets, family and 'personal relations' like these two here. One wonders how much they have actually siphoned from public funds. The make matters worse, funds are used to inaugurate meaningless religious bans and such. This leave many to wonder about the future of the Tibetan people and identity because everybody knows that when His Holiness leaves his earthly remains, the disunited Tibetans would scatter into the 10 directions.

Sikyong makes friends who will benefit him financially, i.e. extravagant trips and overseas meaningless conference. It makes sense why he is good friend with Shimura Hakubun and Yoshiko Sakurai who are key members of Nippon Kaigi cult that advocate a return to monarchy, the expulsion of immigrants, the revoking of equal rights for women, restrictions on freedom of speech. The group has also repeatedly denied the Japanese army's role in recruiting comfort women from China and Korea during WW2. Sikyong choose his friends wisely and the criteria is very obvious, self benefits and nothing else because making friends will these two do not compliment the ‘Tibetan Women’s Empowerment Conference' organisation because the two do not shared vision of His Holiness the Dalai Lama in  promoting compassionate qualities of women in social and political development.
