"Lewang Redux" by Namcha

mr.snowlion@gmail.com (Topden Tsering) — Tue, 30 Nov 2010 09:58:17 +0000

Lewang is a moving ballad by Lobsang Guge, one of the hugely popular singers from Tibet. Accompanied by soul-picking turn on acoustic guitar and dreamy effects of harmonica, Lewang is a song of love, longing and loss.

Dear Respondent,

I am conducting an online opinion poll on 2011 Kalon Tripa final election. The primary purpose of this online poll is to generate statistics based on respondents or participants’ inputs. To participate in the poll, you must be a Tibetan and a registered voter (or will be a registered voter). The poll is designed to restrict participants from taking more than one poll. In other words, you can participate only once in the poll.

I would really appreciate if you could complete the poll by its closing date i.e., November 24, 2010. The poll is expected to take only about 5 minutes of yourprecious time. Please click on the link to go directly to the online opinion poll. https://survey.uwyo.edu/TakeSurvey.aspx?SurveyID=88KH6m41K.

Please be assured that all of your responses will be anonymous. You are not required to identify yourself at any point of the online poll. If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to contact me.

Director: Sam Wangyal | Producer: Sam Wangyal
Genre: Documentary | Produced In: 2009 | Country: United Kingdom

Synopsis: "I Am Pema" is a film that paints a lyrical reflection on displacement and hope, glimpsed during a day in little Pema’s world. It was her parents' wish to achieve better things for their children through an education that respects their language and cultural identity at perhaps at the cost of never seeing her again. They wanted at least one of their children to have a future under the Dalai Lama’s care. Four years ago, thirty-nine Tibetan children trekked over the Himalayas forced to flee their oppressed homeland to seek freedom in exile. One of them was Pema, then only seven years old. Though displaced, she is full of happy optimism tinged with sadness because she remembers her parents every day. But she says she is happy now showing remarkable strength in settling into a strange new world in a new country with new parents making new friends and discoveries along the way. Of course a return to Tibet is unthinkable!

Christina Chan : Democracy Flame in Hong Kong

mr.snowlion@gmail.com (Administrator) — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 20:02:05 +0000

She's young. She's beautiful. She's smart. Christina Chan is emerging as the new face of Hong Kong's increasingly disaffected.
For Hong Kong's scandal-driven media, 22-year-old Chan offers a prism through which to view the increasingly angry "post-80s generation."
Yet it's a shoe that doesn't quite fit, says Chan. The graduate student in philosophy agrees that dissatisfaction in the former British colony is on the rise. But she insists the backlash on the
streets is not just coming from young people. "This is not a generational war," she says.
Frustrations are brewing among a large swath of Hong Kong society including rural dwellers, middle-aged workers and teens who want their voices to be heard, says Chan.
"People are getting angrier and angrier," she says. According to Chan, citizens' rage is fueled by the government's failure to deliver on its promise of democracy and its growing heavy-handedness in dealing with protests.
