Tibetans separated from their spiritual leader

Dear China,I’ve always loved your food.  As a child, when my mother would announce “Get your shoes—we’re going to The Jade Spoon” I’d swoon to thoughts of Hunan, garlic, black bean—how you marry sweet with sour always seemed, to me, a Taoist practice.  Each dumpling wrapped with such precision.  Today, as a vegetarian, I am humbled by what only you can do with tofu.

The Thaw at the Roof of the World

New York Times: SPEAKING this week at the United Nations, President Hu Jintao of China declared that his country “fully appreciates the importance and urgency of addressing climate change." As well it should. China is beginning to realize that it has a lot to lose from the carbon dioxide that the world so blithely emits into the earth’s atmosphere.

HIV in Tibet – Doctor Leads First Prevention and Education Campaign

In the world of HIV/AIDS, communications is vital. In many communities, often the initial reaction is to say, “we do not have any men who have sex with men; we do not have any men who visit prostitutes; and, we do not have any HIV/AIDS.” Reality is a bit different than the words. Today, according to the World Health Organization, approximately, 33 million people are living with HIV and 2.7 million new cases were reported in 2007. The face of HIV/AIDS is everyone’s face. HIV/AIDS knows no economic, race, ethnic, gender, age or religious boundaries. It is an equal opportunity disease. As people move around the globe – so to does the virus.

view: Sino-Indian water divide —Brahma Chellaney

As China and India gain economic heft, they are drawing ever more international attention at the time of an ongoing global shift of power to Asia. Their underlying strategic dissonance and rivalry, however, usually attracts less notice. Last Updated on Tuesday, 03 November 2009 07:47

Tale of cyber war: China and Tibet

Although the one-party state known for absolute control over all domestic media will surely remain unsuccessful in its goal of achieving credibility of its media presence and through it enhancing its global image, China is still reshaping its new media presence and spending hugely on it.
