China thanks India for curbing Tibetan protests

[Shinigami]

New Delhi: China today blamed the Dalai Lama for stoking extremist views and thanked India for taking “effective and concrete” steps to curb protests by Tibetans during President Hu Jintao’s visit.

Luo Zhaohui, Director-General of the Department of Asian Affairs, regretted the loss of innocent lives in and around Tibet but said Beijing opposed “pro-independence Tibetan activists”.

Answering a query about the death of a young Tibetan protester in New Delhi on Wednesday, Luo said loss of innocent lives was always regretful.

“On the other hand, we look to emphasise that Dalai Lama and so-called pro-freedom Tibetan activists pushing extreme radical views by glorifying extreme behaviour is not consistent with Buddhism,” Luo said.

Jamphel Yeshi, a 27-year-old Tibetan, died on Wednesday after setting himself ablaze to protest Hu’s India visit for the BRICS meeting.

Luo said India recognises Tibet as a part of China.

He said it was “regretful” that Tibetan protestors created trouble for the Indian government.

The “Chinese side appreciates effective and concrete measures taken by government of India”, he said.

Authorities clamped prohibitory orders banning the gathering of four or more people in the capital and arrested many Tibetans to prevent possible trouble during Hu’s trip.

Answering queries, Luo said ties between India and China had witnessed growth and momentum due to institutional contacts and people-to-people ties.

On the border issue, he said the mechanism of meeting between special representatives of the two sides was making progress.

Luo said the two countries have been able to maintain peace and tranquility on the Line of Actual Control.

Ma Zhaoxu, Assistant Foreign Minister, said the BRICS meeting had been successful and added that India as the host country played a very important role in its positive outcome.

“It is fair to describe the summit as success,” he said.

its already bad enough these people are self immolating in China but now in India? i think India should expel all these Tibetan foreigners and send them back to China where they belong.... does it bother anyone else that in Himachal Pradesh Tibetan refugees get more social benefits and reservations than the OBC population in the state? i'm not making this up i went to Dharamsala Manali and the Parvati valley this last december and all i saw was these Tibetan freeloaders taking advantage of the states hydro-electricity ability


this should be ammunition for the nda/BJP the Congress led UPA national gov't gives more attention to these foreigners than to the actual indigenous poor of India i'd much rather give social benefits and aid to the OBC/SC/SCO and Adivasis who make up more than 60% of India's poor rather than Tibetan exiles whom are not Indian.

p.s don't think these Tibetans are peaceful because the story of the Han Chinese people in Tibet is comparable to the story of the Pandits in Kashmir my Chinese friend told me her cousin whom was serving in the PLA was executed for speaking Cantonese in Tibet she said that Han people are afraid to disclose their ethnicity because of the threat from the Tibetans.

Off-coarse, India is threat to those power who just want land not the real owner of that land( e.g. China and west pakistan).
