Tibetan legislator calls for balanced view of Tibet
(Xinhua)
Updated: 2009-03-25 20:53 "The lady from the rural area was very powerful and eloquent in her simplicity, in her truthfulness and in her feelings about the progress of her people," he said. "I'm moved by some people not being high officials, but being from a serf's family whose ancestors were basically slaves," he said.
"They (Americans) have only heard one side of narratives that are not accurate historically or not complete. What we need now is that the Americans get a balanced presentation about the facts about Tibet," he said. During the meetings in the United States and Canada, the delegation encountered many questions concerning Tibet, ranging from freedom of religious belief, human rights, economic development, environmental protection and cultural preservation there. "It is natural that differences exist. I think great efforts should be made to improve exchanges so as to improve people's knowledge and understanding of Tibet," said Shingtsa Tenzinchodrak, a living Buddha, also head of the delegation. The delegation will leave Vancouver for Beijing Wednesday afternoon.
