Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Tibet celebrates PRC’s 70th anniversary

With an average elevation of 5,000 meters and the highest mountain Everest, Tibet is the highest region on the planet. The region had been autonomously governed under Chinese and Mongol empires until after Xinhai Revolution in 1912 when local Tibetans ousted Chinese troops and declared independence. The autonomy lasted until 1951 when it was annexed to China after a military conflict. Following the uprising in 1959, the Dalai Lama was forced to flee into exile from Potala Palace in Lhasa and the region lost its self-governance and social structures.

You may assume that this year is Tibet’s 60th anniversary of the uprising against and surrender to China’s ruling, but instead, they danced and sang before the famous Potala Palace and a huge signboard in commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, according to China Daily.

See the photos of Tibetans performing for an anniversary of the historic event.
