As a result of 72 years of Chinese Colonial Rule in Tibet, there have been drastic changes in Tibet’s political, social, and cultural landscape. Tibet is dying a slow death.
CPC has been implementing policies that seek to assimilate Tibetan culture into mainstream Chinese culture. This includes restrictions on practicing Tibetan Buddhism and promoting Mandarin Chinese language and culture in schools. This has led to fears that Tibetan cultural traditions, such as language, music, and dance, may be lost over time.
Additionally, there have been reports of forced resettlement of Tibetan nomads and restrictions on their traditional way of life. This has significantly impacted the Tibetan economy, culture, and way of life.
Human rights organizations have also documented cases of human rights abuses against Tibetans by the Chinese government, including arbitrary detention, torture, and restrictions on freedom of speech, religion, and assembly. These abuses have further fuelled concerns about the erosion of Tibetan identity and culture.
