A Beijing based China Tibetology Research Center (CTRC) has recently organized a rare and unusual press conference in China's capital to criticize the Dalai Lama's forthcoming visit to the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh, his reincarnation process, and the future of Sino-Tibetan dialogue.
During the press conference, Lian Xiangmin, Director of CTRC, not only stated Beijing's longstanding policy on Tawang issue, China’s determination, and desire to recognize Tibet's spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama's reincarnation in China, but also the current state of Sino-Tibetan dialogue and the reasons behind its failure.
Since Xiangmin's comments were widely covered and circulated in the Indian media, VOA Tibetan's Table Talk program invites Bhuchung K. Tsering, Vice President of International Campaign of Tibet and Kunga Tashi, China Liason Officer at the Office of Tibet in D.C to discuss the contents of his speech in this week's episode.
