2/ China is ramping up its abuses and 500,000 Tibetans are now being held in labor camps as part of a systematic genocidal campaign that has one aim. "They want to make Tibet into a Chinese province and they want to make Tibetans into Chinese,"
3/ The Chinese military has recently increased its presence in the country; forced sterilization is being reported, while people are routinely arrested and known to be tortured and killed. Sangay said it must be stopped.
4/ Across Tibet most Buddhist practices are banned, their flags torn down, nuns & monks locked up in camps, as China tries to wipe out this millennia-old culture. Monks protested the occupation throughout, including by self-immolation – 155 monks have set themselves ablaze.
5/ China seized control over Tibet in 1950 in what it describes as a "peaceful liberation."
However, in that "liberation" the Chinese Communist Party destroyed 98% of monasteries and nunneries. In addition, more than 1 million people have been killed.
