John's Views # 1

This was the e-mail my boyfriend forwarded to me from John.


Hi Martin As I wrote before discussion about human rights should be used to learn and improve the quality of life. Exactly....In a very populated area, when people are poor in the remote area, less educated1. they do not know what is peaceful protest, and they have nothing to lose, ( poor , uneducated...)Very often, these so called demonstration becomes a street party where the crowd cannot be controlled.In China, when the place is so populated, these kind of street demonstration will move very quickly to other parts of china, and resulted in an uncontrolled 'riot', destroying the peace and propsperity created in those area.In the long shot, these activities will DESTROY and definitely NOT improve quality of life.Country unity is superior than any other issues.That is not an area of negotiation, discussion in Chinese rules, we all know that, we all support that. Tibet gets so much support from China, and china build one of the most expensive, difficult railway in the world to Tibet.Watch the documentary of this railway, you will be impressed. I think this is the highest railway in the world ( in the mountains) with huge big bridge between mountains.Tibet is in a poor geographic area and relies a lot on China.Those who lived there should realise that.Those who dont realise that are the lamas in the temple where they dont know what is about the real world.They hide in the temple, rely on people giving them food. What economy do you see in Bhutan, Nepal? Only poverty!!!!The issue is foregin TV station interview a few foreigners or lama who wer exiled abroad, and their views were accpeted by westerners becasue they have a western theme and culture. But all people in china dont see that. John
