[Tibet lover]

The article published on New York Times on Nov. 29 to throw stones at China's human rights policy in Tibet doesn't hold water when weighting its points.

The article titled Desperation in Tibet trumped up several violations of human rights in China's policies exercised in Tibet involving religious belief and usage of Tibetan language.

First, the article said China was "replacing the Tibetan language with Chinese as the language of instruction in schools."

As a matter of fact, China has gone to great lengths to protect the language of ethnic minorities groups while publicizing the Mandarin, the standard spoken and written Chinese language.

Tibetan language is widely used in Tibet in the textbooks, billboards and official documents. In addition, Tibet will come out with a regulation to standardize the usage of Tibetan language, which will help its popularization.

Besides, Law of the People's Republic of China on the Standard Spoken and Written Chinese Language stipulates to promote the normalization and standardization of the standard spoken and written Chinese language and its sound development, making it play a better role in public activities, and promoting economic and cultural exchange among all the Chinese nationalities and all across China.

Therefore, it is essential for a Chinese to be able to speak the Mandarin.

As also a multi-ethnical country, the United States also promotes the usage of English. According to the logic of the New York Times, can we say that U.S. is also destroying its original native languages?

It also condemned China that it was "sending some 21,000 Chinese party officials into Tibetan monasteries to keep an eye on monks."

The fact is that Tibetan people are enjoying full freedom of religious belief. At present, there are some 1,700 monasteries, 46,000 registered monks and nuns and over two million Buddhists in Tibet.

To guarantee the stable and safe operation of religious activity, it is necessary to have someone properly manage the monastery affairs.

It is far from the condemnation that China is "sending some 21,000 Chinese party officials into Tibetan monasteries to keep an eye on monks."

The article also blamed China on "forcing monks to denounce the Dalai Lama and banning the display of the Dalai Lama's photograph".

"Dalai Lama" is one of highest titles of Rinpoche of the Gelug Sect of Tibetan Buddhism granted by the central government of China, which can't be tantamount to the 14th Dalai Lama.

The Dalai Lama and his followers have never stopped making troubles to sabotage the stability and hinder the development in Tibet including inciting series of self-immolations and the "3.14"riots in Lhasa in 2008.

People should be aware of the separatist nature of the Dalai clique. The fundamental interest of the majority of Tibetan people is based on a stable society without such trouble that will destabilize the status quo.

Unlike before, the western countries and media like pointing fingers at China's human rights, especially when it comes to Tibet, magnifying all Tibet-related issues.

Nowadays, more western politicians are inclined to favor China by standing against the "Tibetan independence" camp.

When receiving an interview with the Foreign Policy, Gary Locke, U.S. ambassador to China who has announced to resign from his post in 2014, iterated that the U.S. would never support the "Tibetan independence". Soon after his remark, British Prime Minister David Cameron made an official visit to China, which was considered as an ice-breaking trip to repair the sensitive China-UK relations resulted from his meeting with the Dalai Lama last year.

The American and British high officials' attitudes disappointed some western media by not finding fault with China on its Tibet policy.

To see why, the Foreign Policy Journal gave the reason: In the face of China’s rise, the U.S. couldn’t continue playing the human rights card at will to meddle in China’s internal affairs as in the 1980s, but have to adapt.
