Yiwu, did you know that Tibet is not part of China? China just attacked and occupied it a few decades ago. It's not an "ethnic" region. Similarly, Iraq isn't now part of the USA and Iraqis aren't part of an ethnic region of the USA.

What was the basis for China taking over Tibet again? Do you think China has some right to maintain ownership of the serfs in Tibet?

I notice in your posts a level of hubris more normally expressed by Americans. Don't get too excited about how great China is and is going to be and how special the people. It's all been done before.

They aren't special. They are just another bunch of people, subject to the seven deadly sins. Racial superiority is such a tempting idea derived from our atavistic tribal impulses which are best repressed.
