🚨 TODAY: The #UK @houseoflords.parliament.uk votes on allowing up to 15% foreign ownership of UK newspapers, including those with links to #China. We warn this creates risks of foreign influence. It also threatens media pluralism & #freespeech without strong safeguards. HoL must vote against it

Education is a universal right, but 3 out of 4 Tibetan students are being denied their culture and language and forced to live in Chinese colonial boarding schools. This must end now! 📷 Tsering Dolma, President Tibetan Women’s Association and Sonam Tsering, General Secretary Tibetan Youth Congress

John Jones, @freetibet.org said, "The Government of Nepal should disinvite Gyaltsen Norbu and call for the release of Gedhun Choekyi Nyima. Defying Beijing may be awkward, but insulting the 500 million Buddhists around the world would be damning.”

139 global Tibet Network member organisations have called on Nepal’s Prime Minister to repeal any agreement that he can visit stating that “allowing Gyaltsen Norbu to visit Nepal when he lacks recognition or standing among Tibetan Buddhists… would violate the wishes of Buddhists around the world.”

The German government, despite multiple requests, apparently did not confront Beijing on the massive protests against hugely consequential dam construction project in Derge, #Tibet, as a response to a parliamentary inquiry reveals. This is disappointing.
