Since 1949, when Communist China’s Army invaded Tibet, Tibetans have endured nothing but persecution and brutal oppression. As a direct result, 1.2 million Tibetans have died.
Every year, thousands flee Tibet. Those able to survive the dangerous journey over the Himalaya Mountains first make their way to Dharamsala, India, where their spiritual leader, His Holiness the Dalai Lama, lives in exile. It is here, that the seat of the Tibetan Government in exile had been established.
Today, there are approximately 200,000 Tibetans living in exile worldwide while another 6,000,000 still struggle against oppression in their homeland. Thousands have ‘disappeared’ and thousands more remain in prisons or forced labor camps.
The situation in Tibet is worsening as the Chinese Government continues to ravage Tibet by torturing, killing and denying Tibetans their basic human rights, as well as destroying the environment. Tibet’s culture, natural resources, wildlife and fragile ecosystem are facing extinction due to over 50 years of mismanagement and abuse under the People’s Republic of China.
Rich in the arts, Tibetan culture is one of the most ancient cultures on this planet. In our tumultuous world, much can be learned from the gentle and peaceful Tibetans; their Buddhist philosophy exemplifies, most importantly~kindness and compassion.
Since it is vital the world does not allow this unique and precious culture to perish, ALL NATIONS must STAND UNITED for a FREE TIBET…UNTIL TIBET IS FREE!
Without our help, there will not longer be a Tibet to save.
We are: UNITED NATIONS FOR A FREE TIBET. Tibet WILL be free.
