China says Dalai Lama refused invitation to Tibet in 1989 Source : AFP Lhasa, Tibet, August 26 - China revealed for the first time Tuesday that the Dalai Lama was invited to return to Tibet in 1989 to attend the funeral of an important Tibetan Lama, but he turned down the opportunity. "In 1989, when the Panchen Lama passed away, the China Buddhist Association, under the recommendation of the central government, invited the Dalai Lama to come back and attend the funeral service," Jampa Phutsok, chairman of the Tibetan Autonomous Region (TAR), said. "He didn't come, he made a wrong calculation, this was a very good opportunity and he gave it up." phayul.com
