Tibetan communities launched a series of protests againstChinese rule in Tibet in March 2008. It was the biggest challenge toBeijing's authority there since 1989. What sparked the protests?Buddhist monks marched from monasteries in and around Lhasa on 10 Marchto mark the 49th anniversary of a Tibetan uprising against Chineserule. According to reports, security forces arrested some of themarchers, and the following day more monks marched through the streetsto appeal for their colleagues to be freed. Asthe protests escalated, economic and social grievances came to thefore, and more members of the general Tibetan population becameinvolved in the monks' protests. There were confirmed reports of massrioting on the streets of Lhasa. Protests and violence were laterreported in areas of Gansu, Sichuan and Qinghai provinces, which arehome to sizeable Tibetan communities. The protests were fuelled byday-to-day grievances, as well as a desire for Tibetan independence.Many Tibetans are angry at the increasing numbers of Han Chinesemigrants arriving in the region, accusing them of taking the best jobs.Tibetans feel they have been left behind by the economic boom whichcoastal provinces have enjoyed, yet they are suffering from China'saccelerating inflation. What are the underlying issues? The twosides disagree about the legal status of Tibet. China says Tibet hasofficially been part of the Chinese nation since the mid-13th Century,so should continue to be ruled by Beijing. The Dalai Lama heads the Tibetan government-in-exile
| ManyTibetans disagree, pointing out that the Himalayan region was anindependent kingdom for many centuries, and that Chinese rule overTibet has not been constant. For example, after a brief militaryconflict between China and Tibet in the early part of the 20th Century,Tibet declared itself an independent republic in 1912. Although itsstatus did not receive widespread recognition, Tibet functioned as anindependent government until 1951. China sent troops to Tibet in 1950and summoned a Tibetan delegation the following year to sign a treatyceding sovereignty to China. Since then there have been periods ofunrest and sporadic uprisings as resentment to Beijing's rule haspersisted. Although China has invested in the economy, rights groupspoint to widespread mistreatment of the Tibetan population and a denialof religious and political freedom. Will the two sides be able to resolve their differences? TheChinese government has been engaged in low-level talks with Tibet'sgovernment-in-exile, based in India, over recent years. But the talkshave not got very far, and do not show much hope for the future either.The gulf between the two sides is just too great, analysts say. Chinainsists that the Tibetans in exile, led by the Dalai Lama, want nothingless than to separate Tibet from the motherland. The Dalai Lama -Tibet's spiritual leader - says he wants nothing more than genuineautonomy for the region. Why is the Tibet issue so well-known?Perhaps one of the reasons Westerners know so much about Tibet isbecause of the Dalai Lama. Since fleeing Tibet following a faileduprising in 1959, he has travelled the world advocating more autonomyfor his homeland, yet stressing non-violence. He won the Nobel PeacePrize for his efforts in 1989. But Beijing faces disputes from otherquarters, as well as Tibet. The island of Taiwan has essentially beenself-governing for half a century, but China regards it as part of itsterritory - and has said it is willing to use force if necessary tomake sure this remains the case. Uighur separatists in Muslim-majorityXinjiang province have waged a low-level insurgency against the Beijinggovernment for many years. The Beijing government frequently claims itfaces "international terrorism" in Xinjiang, and that the Taleban isactive there, but human rights groups say these claims are exaggerated.Will there be further protests? China responded to theseprotests with a show of force, and officials and state media have vowedto "resolutely crush" pro-independence sentiment. But the fundamentalcause of the demonstrations has not been resolved and so tension islikely to persist, correspondents say. The Olympics in Beijing thissummer have focused the world's attention on Tibet, and campaignersboth inside and outside China are using the publicity surrounding theevent to highlight their particular concerns.
