8 days of uprising
On 10th Monday it was spirit of freedom facing a problem : the authorities.
Last year I made it in London Kathmandu
The difference? It is officially forbidden to demonstrate in the streets.
I arrived late at the monastery. While the children and their teacher were inside, Srongtsen school's students were playing flute for a kora around the Baudha Stupa. The place was filled with Tibetan flags, the air filled with tunes and slogans.
49 years ago, the Tibetan uprising against the Chinese occupation brought them on the road of exile, their leader, the Dalai Lama, received the Peace Nobel Prize, but he's still seen as a terrorist by the chinese government. They talk about his clique like it was missing the cultural revolution... that's may be why it supports Myanmar Sudan
This year is special for the Tibetan People, the world will look massively at JOs right in the middle of a new empire which could be describe as the mergence of totalitarian and free trade.
China
The slogans, were shouted with more will, the flags flew in the air with more strength.
The same day marchers started a journey which should lead them to Tibet
Non-violence and the memory of Indian's first days of uprising and independence are now in the background of its newly chinese friendship.
After the ceremony at the monastery, the children went back to school with the teachers. The latter had their mobile connected with their friends and relatives on their way to the chinese embassy. But the chinese ambassador reached the nepalese faster.
The dark alliance waited for the protesters and for any excuse to use their cherished long stick. I've already seen them in action! Really, they don't even need a reason to use it. This police are a machine one. Just beat the strikers, any one running or looking suspicious or just to scare the others. It could be a woman, no difference.
And so it happened on Monday in front of BBC's cameras.
And on Wednesday, then on Friday, Saturday and Monday 18th.
The Chinese fired at Tibetans, including monks. Nobody can agree with numbers. What sure, chinese are the only one two know... so not much expectation to know the truth from the world leader in censorship.
In Nepalese the police did its job as usual, but this time while the Tibetans look for the help of U.N.

Here it is also interesting. Two of our teachers have been in custody on this Monday 16th. What they wanted? To know how many of their brothers died from the chinese bullets.
Miss P. and Miss C. stayed in custody with 70 others from the at the police head quarter. There a UN representative came to talk. What the woman said: UN-Nepal is unable to act!!!! What a surprise, now UNO is no more international!
If UNMIN (UN mission in Nepal
I'll ask another question: is UNO remembers the Society of Nations?
You understand that I, the children of the school and my family support the Olympics's boycott. More you need to contact your local champions, you need to tell them, if they go to remind tem about the Berlin Games, to tell them there is no shame in going at Beijing
