Tibetan Flag larger image Preserving Tibet overview people and culture environment language ... Dharma Haven's Tibetan Pages Overview Today Tibet, with its unique cultural heritage which incorporates Buddhist spirituality, is truly facing the threat of extinction. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, some kind of cultural genocide is taking place. Time is running out. His Holiness the Dalai Lama Efforts to preserve Tibet its environment, its people, and their culture come in two forms: direct preservation projects involving Tibetan people and those who support their efforts, and educational projects providing resources for people, mainly non Tibetans, who want to learn more about Tibet or some aspect of its culture. A vivid example of the success of the latter approach is the rapid spread of Tibetan Buddhism and the Way of Shambhala into Western countries, fueled by the avid interest of Western students hungry for genuine spiritual insight. Fortunately, many of the most accomplished Tibetan Buddhist meditation masters were able to escape from Tibet during the invasion, and to bring with them many of their treasured scriptures, art works and ritual implements. Direct help is needed, as well. For example, it is not enough to save examples of religious paintings in museums the skills involved in creating the paintings must be passed on from teacher to student, along with the understanding of the meaning of the images and their function in the meditation practice but Tibetans living in countries where they are allowed to really practice Buddhism simply cannot afford to devote their time and energy to dharma study and art work, unless someone helps to pay their living expenses. In old Tibet, the tradition of supporting monks and nuns and monasteries was strong.

June 10,1999: The Cremation of Phuntsok Tashi June10 , 1999: Cremation of Takla Phuntsok Tashi On June 3, 1999, for reasons unknown to me or my Tibetan media colleagues, His Holiness The Dalai Lama paid a visit to people residing in a building next to my workplace here in India. Now, one week later, I know why His Holiness made this visit. He was comforting a very close friend, family member, and government leader who was near to death named Takla Phuntsok Tashi. According to the Tibet Times newspaper, when asked about Takla Phuntsok Tashi, Alak Jigme Rinpoche (Auditor General, Tibetan Government In-Exile) stated that he was a very honest, moral, good hearted, and stable person who offered sound advice to others. Rinpoche also mentioned that he was someone His Holiness The Dalai Lama could trust. The Tibet Times also reported on some thoughts [Image] expressed by Takla Phuntsok Tashi's second wife, Kelsang Yankyi Takla. Kelsang revealed that His Holiness The Dalai Lama visited her husband right before he died. Kelsang claimed that His Holiness gave Takla a photo of Himself with handwriten prayers inscribed. His Holiness also invoked the Amitabha prayer (Prayer for the Pureland) in Takla's presence and requested that Takla recite this prayer as well. His Holiness told Takla not too worry. When Takla was very close to death (June 8), Kelsang placed the photo of His Holiness in front of his face and Takla looked at this picture and began praying. According to Kelsang, he then died in his residence at 8:45PM. Before his death, Takla stated he had no fears. He asked his family to enjoy their lives and not worry about him. He said, "I decided I am going."

Notes. Introduction The classified documents contained here were leaked from Beijing earlier this year. They detail the Chinese government's aggressive, multi-pronged propaganda offensive to sanitize its occupation and oppression of Tibet and to "eradicate...divide and destroy" the international supporters of the Dalai Lama, Tibet's exiled leader. "During the whole period of the 1990s, it will not be possible to eradicate" the Dalai Lama's supporters, "yet it may be possible... to divide and destroy them," observes one of the four secret Chinese government documents. The documents were prepared for a March, 1993 meeting of government officials to review an external propaganda strategy regarding Tibet, which China invaded in 1949 and has occupied ever since.

The 14-year-old Karmapa Lama the only leader of Chinese- occupied Tibet approved by both the Dalai Lama and Beijing made a guarded public appearance on Saturday and has met twice with the Dalai Lama since his trek across the Himalayas to India. "Since his arrival, our main concern is his health," said Tashi Wangdi, Minister of Religion and culture for the exiled Tibetan government in the Indian city of Dharmsala. "It was a long and difficult journey, and the whole flight was a very traumatic experience, because he is only 14 years old."

Tibetan Government in Exile In exile, the Tibetan Government has been reorganised according to modern democratic principles. It administers all matters pertaining to Tibetans in exile, including the re-establishment, preservation and development of Tibetan culture and education, and leads the struggle for the restoration of Tibet's freedom. The Tibetan people, both inside and outside Tibet, consider their Government in Exile based in Dharamsala, North India, to be the sole legitimate government of Tibet. The Tibetan community in exile functions in accordance with the Charter for Tibetans in Exile and is administered by the Kashag (Council of Ministers), which is accountable to the Assembly of Tibetan People's Deputies (a democratically elected parliament). The Tibetan Supreme Justice Commission is an independent judiciary body. The Central Tibetan Administration (CTA) is comprised of three autonomous commissions - Election, Public Service and Audit, seven departments - Religion and Culture, Home Affairs, Education, Information and International Relations, Security, Health, and one Council for planning.

32. Tibet Exiled Government Upset By S. Korean Ban On Dalai Lama (AFP) Article titled tibet exiled government upset by S. Korean ban on Dalai Lama . http://www.tibet.ca/wtnarchive/2000/10/30_1.html

World Tibet Network News Monday, October 30, 2000 1. Tibet exiled government upset by S. Korean ban on Dalai Lama (AFP) NEW DELHI, Oct 30 (AFP) - Tibet's exiled government voiced its regret Monday at South Korea's decision to block a scheduled visit by the Dalai Lama in November. "It is certainly a disappointment," said the exiled administration's culture and religious affairs minister Tashi Wangdi. "I think the Korean government is being over-cautious," Wangdi told AFP by phone from his government's headquarters in the northern Indian hill town of Dharamsala. The South Korean foreign ministry said Monday it had decided that a visit by the Dalai Lama would not be "appropriate" this year. Foreign ministry spokesman Lee Nam-Soo did not specify the reasons for the ban, but officials cited Beijing's strong protest against contacts with the Tibetan spiritual leader. The Chinese government considers the Dalai Lama, who fled Tibet after a failed uprising against Chinese rule in 1959, as a "separatist" bent on "splitting Tibet from the motherland."

Join our email list Action Alerts Events Media Releases News News - 10 March 2003 March 10 Statement from the Tibetan Government in Exile Statement made on Tibetan Uprising Day from The Kashag (Tibetan Parliament) and Kalon Tripa (The Tibetan Prime Minister, Samdhong Rinpoche) 10 March 2003 Today, as we commemorate the 44th anniversary of the Tibetan people's peaceful uprising in Lhasa, I pay our tribute, on behalf of the Kashag, to the brave men and women of Tibet who sacrificed their lives for our spiritual and political cause. I also pledge our solidarity with the courageous men and women who continue to suffer repression in Tibet. In the first-ever 10-March statement of the 12th Kashag, delivered from this very platform, we reflected on the events of the preceding 43 years and took stock of both the negative and positive developments. We outlined the Kashag's political formula for resolving the issue of Tibet through dialogue, as envisaged in His Holiness the Dalai Lama's Middle Way policy, and requested public interest and support to strengthen the Tibetan position. We also expressed our hope and belief that we would soon be able to open a dialogue with the Chinese leadership. That carefully considered statement encapsulated the essence of the Kashag's manifesto. And, as far we were concerned, that statement was significant both politically and historically. Naturally, we trust the Tibetan people have taken that statement with due seriousness. Instead of repeating the content of last year's statement, I would now like to concentrate on the developments of the past year and outline the Kashag's immediate and long-term plans for future. At the beginning of 2002, we succeeded in opening an avenue of communication with some high-level Chinese officials. In the course of subsequent discussions we raised the possibility of a visit to China by envoys of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. This resulted in a delegation visiting Lhasa and Beijing in September.

The emphasis placed on the issue of Tibet by the European Parliament delegation with the Chinese officials attests to the genuine concern and support by the European Parliament for the problem of Tibet for which the Tibetan Government in Exile is grateful.

Earlier this year, the European Parliament officially recognised the formation of the "Tibet Intergroup". The European Parliament also passed a

World Tibet Network News Published by the Canada Tibet Committee Friday, April 5, 2002 7. Tibetan government-in-exile welcomes release of prisoner (AFP) DHARAMSALA, India, April 4 (AFP) - Tibet's government-in-exile Thursday welcomed the release of the longest-serving Tibetan political prisoner but said it hoped the move was not a "token gesture". Tanak Jigme Sangpo, 76, was freed Sunday on medical parole from Lhasa's notorious Drapchi prison, where he has been held continuously since 1983, the London-based Tibet Information Network said. "I welcome this decision by the People's Republic of China to release the longest-serving political prisoner of Tibet," said Samdhong Rinpoche, prime minister of the Tibetan government-in-exile from its base in the northern Indian town of Dharamsala. "Yet I hope that this is not a token gesture by the Chinese authorities and that they are seriously concerned about the plight of political prisoners in Tibet," Rinpoche said in a statement. The Tibetan Centre for Human Rights and Democracy also welcomed the release but charged that China was using Jigme Sangpo as a bargaining chip to improve relations with the United States and avoid criticism from the UN Human Rights Commission now meeting in Geneva.

Home About Us Projects Events ... II . TIBET IS RIGHTFULLY AN INDEPENDENT STATE Section D: The Tibetan Government-in-Exile Is The Only Legitimate Government Of Tibet 'Nothing illustrates [the] dynamic aspect of the continuity of the occupied State better than the existence and activity of exiled governments or, as is sometimes more radically said, States in exile.' The first notable examples took place during the First World War, when the governments and armies of occupied States, such as those of Belgium, Serbia, and Montenegro, continued to exist on foreign soil. During the Second World War, an even larger number of governments of States occupied by German and Italian forces, including those of the Netherlands, Norway, Yugoslavia, and Greece, carried on their activities in London. Sir Arnold McNair formulated the accepted view thus: The mere fact that a foreign Government has been deprived of the control of a part or the whole of its territory by an enemy in no way invalidates legislation passed or other acts of sovereignty done by it outside its normal territory.... There is no principle of International law which says that a Government cannot act validly upon foreign territory with the consent of the local sovereign. On 28 March 1959, as soon as the Chinese forces had regained control over Lhasa, Premier Zhou Enlai issued an Order of State Council dissolving the Government of Tibet. The Order stated, in part:

back back The Tibetan Government-in-Exile position with respect to development and investment in Tibet is clear: it supports projects which benefit the Tibetan people and opposes those which cause harm to them. We have put forward a set of Guidelines for International Development Projects and Sustainable Investment in Tibet to assists potential investors, corporations and donor agencies interested in working in Tibet to determine what projects should be encouraged and which ones should be discouraged and opposed. The main goal of the Guidelines is to foster sustainable development in the Tibetan Plateau that will enhance the ability of the Tibetan people to fully participate in the development of their land and to control their natural resources. At this point in time the construction of the Sebei-Lanzhou (Tsaidam, Amdo) oil and gas pipeline, launched on 30 March 2000, backed by western companies such as BP, Enron, and AGIP, is causing alarm among Tibetans. This project represents a significant escalation of China's exploitation of oil and gas on the Tibetan Plateau and will accelerate China's policy of transferring Chinese settlers into Tibetan areas. With the involvement of western companies China receives global support in despoiling Tibet's natural resources for the first time. In the view of the Tibetan Government-In-Exile, this project will be harmful because it will: * Employ a sizeable and disproportionate number of Chinese and other non-Tibetans.
