There was same situation like the Tibet’s protest nowadays 49years ago. On the same day of 10th of March, over 3million people were gathered at ‘Lasa’, the capital of Tibet and they demonstrated against being incorporated in China. The people’s Liberation army used tanks to control them. And finally they were suppressed by military power and be settled as part of China’s territory.
Why doesn’t China let Tibet to remain as a separate nation? Tibet is located at the highest plateau and called as ‘The roof of the world’. This land has the lot of natural resources such as diamond, magnesium and irons and so on. It is estimated that this land’s economical value is enormous. And their strategic value of army is also high. The reason is, their geographical position has a great advantage of building down and developing the weapons. And China can’t give up taking this country because it’s location is a buffer zone between China and India. Also, If China let Tibet to be independent, over fifty other minority races will also ask for their independence. Anyway, by all these reasons, China has evaded and oppressed them.
In order to come up the solutions that are best for the both, is to grasp the essential point of the situation. The main reason that Tibetan were faced with this event, was not because of the discrimination of human rights nor the poverty. It was not just the struggle for the independence. It was their expression of anger and a long series of hatred that has remained in their heart for a long time. Their culture and religion has been ignored and the Beijing haven’t been minded the sensitivity of to Tibetan culture.
They should stop oppressing Tibetan’s own culture, religion and their traditions and stop using the military forces. They should solve and compromise by conversation. And they should respect Tibetan’s democracy and respect fo men’s life and dignity which is very basic and universal. I hope it settles by peacefully and without delay to see no more victims.
