Dalai Lama Aides to talk with CCP
Sure, I don’t really expect anything to come out of this, but something is better than nothing. I mean the Dalai Lama mentioned this a while ago, but the CCP finally came out and made it official. Maybe they’ve been talking this whole time and they only just announced it because they made some progress? Like tomorrow there will be an announcement about restriction of migration into Tibet, the implementation of free local elections and the establishment of a real autonomous region similar to that of Hong Kong, and the freedom to practice their religion and use of their own language while the Dalai Lama steps down as a political leader after accepting that Tibet is a part of China? Eh, probably not I guess, but yeah, dialogue is still good news.
The bad news is that the MIDI modern music festival is canceled.
Now I really have nothing to do during the three and a half days vacation I have during the May holiday. Shouting slogans, waving flags, and bludgeoning little Carrefour cashiers to death with bricks all day just doesn’t really appeal to me….
It is funny to see you put the tag “Dalai” and “Rock” together~
