Here I can give some very important pictures of those Tibetan that are not seen in the TV and media maybe u think I m laying but it is true I m not against the Chinese people ,actually I know Chinese language and custom so I like those Chinese people I know they history I m deeply impressed . Looking back to the history Tibet was a nation but we give up this, you can read and know it from history of British India Nepal and Chinese history itself
We are brother and sister also I am very sorry for the loss life of Chinese Han in the recent event but from the government side only explaining that side and not those snaps that are available in (http://www.tchrd.org/press/2008/pr20080318c.html) so click here. We want to live together happily but we need to understand each other and government should provide demand of Tibetan people we don’t seek a free Tibet. Now we accepting to live together side by side and also some of the media are misinterpreting the Tibet issue as a nationality lever like Han and Tibetan. This is totally wrong we are same people we need to respect each other we need happiness. We don’t want to separate china but we want to live together as a nation with genus autonomy.
Hello,
I work for an Al Jazeera English television programme called “The Listening
Post”. In our show, we analyze the media and look at how the media worldwide
covers different news items.
For your interest, here is a link of our playlist
(http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=2852B12A0CDD3DE9)
– all the shows we have done on the Listening Post — so that you can get a
better idea of what we are all about.
For our upcoming show, we are looking at the media problems facing Tibet in
its current conflict with China — what kind of censorship exists in Tibet?
Who is censoring the media in Tibet? Is the worldwide media able to access
information on Tibet? What is the relationship between China and Tibet in
regards to media freedom in Tibet?
I’d very much like to include you in this program considering that you have
written several posts on the subject of Tibet and the media. To include your
opinion on the above questions, I’ll need you to record yourself on a webcam
or videorecording device and email the file to us (the instructions are below
for how to upload it to us).
I hope you get a chance to record this and email it to us (all the
instructions are below). I’ll need the file in our inbox (the instructions
for how to upload it to http://www.yousendit.com are below) by Tuesday 1 April
morning time GMT (London time) at the latest, otherwise we won’t be able to
use it as that is our edit deadline. Please note that your submission must be
in English.
Best regards,
Shirin Sadeghi
Producer
Al Jazeera English’s “The Listening Post”
————————-
TIPS:
—BEFORE RECORDING—
1- Find a quiet place to record your comment, so that background noise
doesn’t cause a problem. Overhead fans, open windows, air conditioning – all
of these can create a hum in the background. Try to switch them off before
you make your final recording.
2- Be aware of what is in the background as you film — make sure it’s
nothing you don’t want us to see, and try to keep it plain.
3- Secure the camera on an even surface so that it doesn’t wobble or shake.
4- Frame the picture so that you have your head and shoulders in frame with
about a quarter of the frame left empty at the top, for head space.
5- Make sure there is light on your face – a lamp facing you is a good option
6- Make sure that your microphone is directed towards your face
7- Record on your webcam software OR quicktime (.mov)
—WHILE RECORDING—
1- Look straight into the camera when you speak.
2- Speak clearly and not too quickly.
3- Start your piece by saying your NAME, PROFESSION and LOCATION
4- Hit RECORD and count 5 seconds before starting. Also count 5 seconds after
you’ve finished speaking. This is necessary for edit space for us.
5- Record around 1 or 2 minutes. Ultimately, we will edit your piece down to
about 30-45 seconds, so keep that in mind.
—SEND IT TO US—
1- Once you are happy with your piece, save it and upload it to
http://www.yousendit.com (you may need to register for free first).
2- Direct the file to listeningpost@aljazeera.net
You should do the Al Jazeera interview. Looking forward to see it!
I need to get a webcam
It would be helpful if you included the source for many of your postings.
Good job with the blog. Are you able to study written Tibetan while attending school?
tashi delek
Thanks. No not written Tibetan, but I’ve been able to do a few papers on Tibet related topics like Tibetan Buddhism or Tibetan history in school.
I do include the sources. Usually I place them at the end of the post or I put a link up when I refer to them.
Dear Jigmed,
Have you thought on doing a story about how the Nepali government is trying to deport the Tibetan refugees residing there?
Nepal Soon to Decide on Tibetans: Deputy PM
Phayul[Tuesday, September 23, 2008 10:35]
Dharamsala, Sept 23 – Nepal’s Deputy Prime Minister said Monday that the government would soon decide the fate of Tibetan refugees residing in Nepal as the country would no longer be able to bear the burden they cause. “The government will soon decide the matter through review of the existing laws or by giving them the status of Nepali citizens,” he was quoted as saying by the Kantipuronline as saying.
The Deputy Prime Minister, who also holds the portfolio of home ministry, was speaking to journalists in Pokhara yesterday.
He also said that the government would take very strict measures to stop the use of Nepali soil against others. “We’ll arrest the protesting Tibetans and initiate action against those having identity cards while handing over others with no identity papers to the UNHCR.”
There are around 14,000 Tibetans here with ID cards and refugee status, which the government conferred on Tibetans entering Nepal before 1985. It has been 13 years since the government stopped issuing such ID cards even as around 2,500 Tibetans have been entering Nepal every year, reports Kantipuronline
“Most of those (Tibetans) arrested don’t possess identity card or passports which means they are living in Nepal illegally,” Gautam said, adding, “If we can’t stop this, we are not a country.”
Claiming that over 100,000 Tibetans have been sheltering in Nepal on various pretexts, Gautam said, “If we continue issuing identity cards to every Tibetan, they will double within 50 years. So, it’s high time we decided over this as we can’t keep them here like this any more.”
He also warned the Tibetans not to “misuse” the rights given them as a goodwill. “Legal action will be taken if they are found misusing their rights while in Nepal.”
Meanwhile, Nepal’s Ambassador to China, Tanka Karki, said that China is happy with the action the government of Nepal has been taking against Tibetan protesters in Kathmandu. However, according to Mike Dunham who interviewed the Deputy Prime Minister on September 18, he was told by Gautam that the ‘Tibetans would not be in danger of being deported to China-not now nor in the future’
Might be nice to have a popular discussion here that doesn’t revolve around Shugden.
u better not take the Aljazeera interview.
its disgrace to say you wanna live under Chinese CCP. I know its not just you but there are more people like you among Tibetans. we have already surrendered our independent, culture and everything we have, but what happened now? better to die before you become a citizen of a murderous government.
And one more thing: do not worry about loosing Han Chinese(if you are talking about 3.14 this year), whatever happened to Hans were just performance of CCP. silly.
Just passing by.Btw, you website have great content!
