Tibetans Need to Act Swiftly and The World Must Open Its Eyes
iPolak: In the second upcoming General
Body Meeting of Tibetans in exile organized by the CTA, Tibetans should
seriously engage in discussion and make a decision based on a realistic
approach towards their struggle, rather than depending on the
international community to pressure the Chinese government. This is a
struggle for Tibet by Tibetans. History will remember. Tibet was a free
country before 1950 and therefore any Tibetan can demand freedom and
individual Tibetans must respect each other’s freedom of speech and
choice. Dividing our own people on the basis of their democratic right
to free choice and decision represents the continuation of what is
transpiring in China and in Tibet under the Chinese Communist regime.
In the world’s present condition, if the middle way approach for
Genuine Autonomy sought by the CTA is good enough, then Tibetans can
support it, but every individual should and must take responsibility to
ask questions, make plans and take action within some time frame of how
they are taking the next step towards achieving Genuine Autonomy and
what if it is not at all accepted or delayed like it is being done till
now. We must understand that nine rounds of the secretive talks held in
the CTA’s pursuit of Genuine Autonomy have proved futile and ultimately a
failure. Upon their resignation, two previous representatives
expressed their frustration over the Chinese leadership's refusal to
restart the stalled negotiations and their lack of response through all
these years. Through all this, we must realize that we need to act
swiftly.
Sometimes, I do feel that our calls for our land
sound as if we are seeking something that was never ours. It is painful
when our fellow Tibetans self-immolate for the sake of our freedom yet
the Chinese government remains unmoved and continues to blame Tibetans
in exile.
In our struggle for freedom, if we continue to focus on the
creation of policies telling us what we should and should not do then
over time, our struggle will lose its sustained energy. Furthermore, it
will divide our community in disagreement and as we become increasingly
and solely engaged in our day-to-day life, far too little time and
energy will be devoted to our struggle. The time may then come when our
struggle will die in cold blood by our own hand. Every action and effort
we make for Tibet must be measured, respected and justifiable.
I hope the CTA will make a decision as soon as
possible and pursue realistic goals in a concrete timeframe. We in
exile should keep in our mind that our fellow Tibetans in Tibet are
suffering and dying with hope still in their heart. They are struggling
every day and every moment. Being in exile, problems and worries that
we faced will keep on rising with time to come in various situation. It
is endless and it may get worse as there are nothing like one’s
homeland. This time of struggle in which we find ourselves is of
historic importance and we are fortunate to have the opportunity to do
something for our nation and for our people. We must all stand up
together with the strongest determination for our common cause.
We must know our transgressors and we must identify our allies.
Sometimes,
I feel Tibetans in exile scattered throughout India in various
settlements are involved more in improving facilities and their
individual conditions rather than focusing harder on how and when can we
return back to our own land. This has become a curse in disguise. When
we were children, we heard stories of our Tibet from grandparents and
how they lived life and how Tibet once was. We dream of Tibet and
imagine what our lives would be like back home. Now we see children in
nurseries drawing cars, phones, buildings and gadgets. As time passes,
the evidence that things are no longer the same has become clear.
The Chinese Communist Party is a threat to today’s fast
changing and interdependent world. Under the CCP regime, China is now
the biggest manufacturing hub of the world, delivering some of the best
products like Apple’s iPhone to the simplest of items we see on the
street. The continuation of such massive scale production will use
natural resources to such an extent that the five elements will revolt
in the form of natural disasters such as those witnessed in recent
years, disasters that many fear represent only the tip of the iceberg of
environmental problems. At the same time, this regime is suppressing
and inhumanely coercing their own people to such an extent that one day
their own billion population will revolt against them and turn upon
those nations and international players whose greed and inaction
passively allowed them to suffer hell on earth. That time will prove
very difficult and heart wrenching to witness, but it will come.
The Chinese people should not be considered a
destructive people. They are the source of many inventions, discoveries
and have given the world many things to improve people’s lives. Sadly,
the Chinese Communist Party took control of the nation and its massive
population under the banner of progress and development, in the process
of killing their own people and staining the nation’s history with the
blood of patriots and civilians. The Chinese people are victims of a
system in which the world’s growing demand for cheap products is met by
the CCP’s greed for profits and power. Corporations claim to promote
progress under the guise of fair trade while they pump millions of
dollars into the hands of a remorseless government that uses its funds
to oppress its own people and further its political interests around the
world.
It is truly sad and shameful that so many leading
world nations and their leaders are complicit in this injustice. In
developed and developing countries, we have strict and severe
imprisonment for the trafficking of illegal substances of addiction.
But I feel that the time has come for people and their governments to
realize that capitalist-driven multinational companies injecting people
with greed and a never-ending need for more, the likes of which has
never been seen in our history. Corporate research and development
departments study human psychology to manipulate consumers and ensure an
ongoing demand for their products, regardless of the result. This
consumerism and horrific greed, allowed to thrive through the policies
of the Communist Chinese regime, is slowly choking our world, our
environment and our humanity, and is therefore not sustainable. People
of the world must come to know that we are not the only living beings of
the world and that without our humanity and the legitimate support and
respect for human rights, survival of humanity itself may prove doubtful
in the years to come.
