Hi, Friends:
Maps of China, please check the history of China.
Which map indicate Tibet is/was a independent country?

(Note: see the Xikang Province in the map. Tibet is bigger than it was before PRC)

I think it's normal for one to live anywhere in his country. Americans can live in Hawaii(Native Hawaiian is a minority in Hawaii, needless to say Native Indian in US mainland) , also can live in New York. Chinese can live in anywhere(Tibetans can also live in Beijing etc). Here, I want to mention that Chinese are not equal to Han. Chinese are comprised of 56 ethnics, such as Han, Hui, Manchu, Tibetan, Miao, Bai, Dai, Mongolian..........
I also think Chinese should protect the Tibetan unique culture. But I think it's difficult to find a balance point between the modernizing and the protecting the tradition.
Some one does not like Chinese gov. I think it's normal. I also disagree some policies of Chinese gov. No one gov can satisfy its every people.
I do not like those foreigners who break Chinese law (The Anti-Secession Law). If they break Chinese law in China, they should be punished. At this point, I support the gov.
Thank you, friends! Enjoy China, Enjoy Tibet! Good luck!
