Tibetans in China Covertly Mark Dalai Lamas 79th Birthday Tibetans in China observed the birthday of the Dalai Lama on the weekend by holding celebrations “covertly” in spite of new restrictions, including a cut-off in communications in some areas, sources said. Activities in the Tsolho (in Chinese, Hainan) Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in northwestern China’s Qinghai province included “hoisting prayer flags, going on picnics, holding horse races, and burning juniper branches as offerings at sacred mountain sites,” a Tibetan living in the area told RFA’s Tibetan Service on Monday. sunyat.free.fr
