Yes, there were some Tibetan dead but they were all killed by the Tibetan rioters, looters instigated by Dalai and none of them were killed by the police. None of the rioters were killed and even some of them were arrested and sentenced for their crime but none of them were sentenced to death for their towering crimes. If such crimes were done by Han Chinese, they would be definitely sentenced to death. Han Chinese are allowed only one child per family but the Tibeten Chinese are allowed as many children as they can. Besides all ethnic nationalities enjoy special allowances. I don't know why our government is so soft-handed to ethnic nationalities. I think all Chinese should be equally treated. Even so westerners accuse the Chinese government of killing Tibetan Chinese. Chinese people are angry just because the western medias have turned the truth upside down. Whoever have come to Tibet have to admit the great changes there. People's life there isn't any different from that of other places in China. Many of you don't know who Dalai is. In fact Dalai was the title given by the Chinese emperor of Yuan Dynasty and since then all Dalais have to be appointed and approved by the central Chinese government. The present Dalai was appointed by Guomindang Government 1948 before the communist took power. In 1959 the central government ordered a democratic reform in Tibet where a serf system was being enforecd there. A handful of upper class owned 100% of land and each of them owned hundreds or thousands of serfs who were treated like their livestock and cruelly beaten; many of them had their eyeballs taken while others had their hands or feet cut off, or their skins peeled off for making drums. The cruelty of the upper class is beyond words. The upper class headed by Dalai hated so much the central government that was different from any previous Chinese central government that allowed the slave system to go on. Thent they fled into India until now. If without the communist central government, Tibet would be definitely as dark as the middle ages. If without billions of fund and constant repair by the central government, all Tibetan temples and monasteriers would have long been reduced to rubbles. China has started to excercise its sovereignty over Tibet since Yuan Dynasty about 700 years ago, much longer than the US history. If China were to give up Tibet, should Americans give way to the Indians and go back to where you came from? Seeing is believing! Go to Tibet to see yourselves! Tibetan Chinese are just like the Han Chinese and lots of them have their private houses, cars and whatever you have they have.

Any reason to think that?
Because the Chinese government doesn't want the international community to intervene and support all of the Uighurs: the only way they could do that is by portraying Uighurs as terrorists and creating this kind of feelings. Because China claimed Uighurs were terrorists, they always have to wave the flag of terrorism.
China and the United States both say the East Turkistan Islamic Movement (ETIM) is a terrorist organization linked to Al Qaeda. Do you consider that movement exists and does it use violence?
After my release, I learned that there was such organization from the media, but I don't know where it is, so actually I'm not aware of that organization or its activities.
What do you see as the solution in Xinjiang?
Both Tibet and Xinjiang should have the right of self-determination. The Chinese authorities should listen to the demands of the Tibetans and Uighurs and should negotiate with the leaders of both Tibetans and Uighurs for the future of these two territories.
Are you saying you believe that China should open talks with the Dalai Lama?
The Chinese leaders should open talks with the Dalai Lama. He demanded just very basic demands from the Chinese authorities, so for the Chinese leaders not to talk to him is their loss. In fact, if the Chinese authorities didn't play the delaying tactic in their dialogue with the Tibetans, there wouldn't be the situation in Tibet today. It's the same situation with the Uighurs.
In what way?
The Chinese authorities have been persecuting the Uighur people through their own handpicked puppet leaders. They have not started a dialogue process with genuine representatives of the Uighur people, so the more repression, the more problems they will have.
Do you have regular contact with the Dalai Lama and his advisers in Dharmasala?
Yes, I do have direct contact with Tibetans since the very day of the takeover of our homeland and Tibet, the Uighurs and Tibetans always have close contacts and co-operation.
