450 Tibetans detained in Nepal: police 1 day ago KATHMANDU (AFP)— Police on Saturday detained 450 Tibetan activists, beating some with bamboo sticks and punching others, as they staged a pro-Tibet protest in Nepal's capital, officials and witnesses said. Police rounded up the activists as over 500 Tibetans, mostly monks and nuns, crying "Down with China" and "Free Tibet," staged a rally near the sprawling royal pink palace, an area out of bounds to demonstrators. "We detained around 450 Tibetan exiles as they tried to march into the off-limits area for protests," police officer Bharat Lama told AFP. "We had to beat them as they forcibly tried to enter the restricted zone despite repeated warnings," Lama said, adding all would be freed later Saturday. Police dragged the protesters to waiting police vans and shoved them inside. Those who resisted were punched and kicked, an AFP reporter said. The Tibetan exiles in Nepal began staging almost daily protests in Kathmandu in March after deadly unrest in their homeland. They suspended their protests after a catastrophic earthquake hit China on May 12, leaving about 70,000 people dead, 18,000 missing and 15 million more homeless. But this week they restarted protests in which usually hundreds of demonstrators gather, many are detained and are then released without charge. They return the next day to be detained again. Nepal officially respects its giant northern neighbour's "One China" policy that regards Tibet and Taiwan as indivisible parts of China. More than 20,000 Tibetan refugees live in Nepal and around 2,500 still arrive annually in Kathmandu before heading to Dharamshala in northern India, home of the Dalai Lama and the Tibetan government-in-exile. http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5h3_Sfr8P4... *** I have the utmost Cheers and Aplause to those Tibetans, they have all the rights to protest for their land. Freedom is not for Free, you must fight harder and the freedom days will come. Nothing can stop people's will.

While Nepal is showing remarkable patience and restraint against the troublemakers, they should however start to deport these professional protectors. It is one thing to allow your own citizen to voice their opinion in forms of protest, it is entirely another to allow foreigners to run amok.

Frankly Buddha wouldn't give a damn about what's happening in Tibet because Buddhism is all about reaching enlightenment.(Any negative actions done in life will simply give you bad karma and be reflected in your next life.) Earthly concepts like borders and cultural identity are meaningless in Buddhism.(Remember that Buddha was an Indian prince, not Tibetan or Chinese.) The fact that Tibetans are doing what they are doing makes this a political movement, not a spiritual or cultural one.(And the very fact that the Dalai Lama is in charge of this movement means there's a conflict of interest because the so-called reincarnation of Buddha shouldn't be taking sides in a political conflict.)

Right now, Viets are still struggling to catch up to China's level in the 70's or 80's! Understandably, vietnam is now run by communists having been blasted by the invader US during vietnam war for 30 booming years. The US should be judged by world court for her hideous war crime killing millions of innocent viets, helpless babies, children, men and women!

He is not the 'so called' reincarnation buddha!, he is just the head of a religious sect of buddism, come on, you know that and I know that. He is a ordinary man, a lying politician at that.

Your equation has missed the billion number of Chinese to be fed with foods and housing, but in Commie's land there are guns and undercover polices more than the number of helpers needed. Look at North Korea and Cuba

A shock to you, most Chinese police does not even carry guns. And even more shock to you and the western media, Chinese army sent to Sichuan quake rescue carries no weapon at all, unlike the US national guard.

Look at North Korea and Cuba No, the Chinese are relatively well off as I have found out in my many visits to that country on business. They are getting richer by the day. China is not like poor vietnam, north korea and cuba. Have you been to this fast changing China? Read this http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/bizchina/2008-05...

It's Communist's show to the world When you come to China, just say "Communist is bad" and you will see. Remember the China's ship with gun shipment to Zimbawe had to return to China.
