I am deeply concerned over the situation that has been developing in Tibet following peaceful protests in many parts of Tibet, including Lhasa, in recent days. These protests are a manifestation of the deep-rooted resentment of the Tibetan people under the present governance.
As I have always said, unity and stability under brute force is at best a temporary solution. It is unrealistic to expect unity and stability under such a rule and would therefore not be conducive to finding a peaceful and lasting solution.
I therefore appeal to the Chinese leadership to stop using force and address the long-simmering resentment of the Tibetan people through dialogue with the Tibetan people. I also urge my fellow Tibetans not to resort to violence.

Dalai and oversea Tibetan were just the masters of those previous Tibetan slaves who included those political monks, they ran away after Chairman Mao brought democracy to Tibet, and they were failed fighting against PLA, they are dreaming to come back to Tibet and recover their previous right and positions just like living in heaven, no way!!! We Chinese and most Tibetan people strongly support Chinese government.
Pls see our Chinese voice http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_412f2fec01008p2p.html
