 Tibet was an ancient country, the size of western Europe
when it was invaded by the People’s Liberation
Army. A place with a unique culture, history and
identity, Tibet has been changed dramatically by
the Chinese invasion. This has not only claimed
many lives and cost its people the freedom to practice
their culture, religion and language as they wish,
but has also seen a calculated process put into
place by which Tibetan culture is gradually and
finally eradicated.
In
March 2008, knowing the eyes of the world were
on China in the run up to the Olympics, thousands
of ordinary Tibetans made a courageous stand
for freedom, taking to the streets in protest.
The Chinese government's response was to throw
all journalists and foreigners out of Tibet and
bring in tens of thousands of troops to quash all
demonstrations and hide the truth abbout Tibet
from the critical eyes of the world.
For
the past 20 years, Free Tibet has been bringing
to light the imprisonment and torture of monks,
nuns and lay people whose only “crime” is
wanting to freely practise their religion and to
live in an unoccupied country. Although Chinese
authorities would never admit to being influenced
by international public opinion, we know that we
have helped to free political prisoners.
At the beginning of March 2008 there were approximately
150 Tibetan political prisoners, the majority of
whom were monks and nuns, and many more who were
never charged. In the aftermath of the brutal crackdown
of recent peaceful protests in Tibet, now no one
knows how many have been imprisoned. Eye witness
information received by Free Tibet Campaign suggests
many thousands of people may have been arrested.
