I have picked up this leaflet from a vegetablian food store. Its content said like these.

"the goal is autonomy not independence www.dalailama.com be anti-violence not anti-China :Respond to anger with patience and compassion inspire yourself: Read up on Gandhi and Martin Luther King from ordinary to extraordinary : Write to your President, United Nations Commission for Human Rights and your local embassies to press for dialogue, genuine autonomy & transparency compassion in action: Dialogue with any company that trades with China to insist on human rights small action big result : Support email campaigns and petitions. www.avaaz.com be the change you wish to see in the world : Peace starts with just one person.

The Dalai Lama take action now : Start your own non-violent "Stand up for Tibet" campaign. Tell us about it at info@standupfortibet.org"

Frankly, the moment we pick up the paper, my friend and I are wondering, what is the difference between autonomy and independence. We guess independence means "no government", autonomy means still has "government". Any way, we are very poor in the history, we don't know what is the history between the Tibet and the China, just like we still don't quite know what is the story about the World War I and World War II.

We are more concern about the cyclone victims in Burma. No matter what we still think that Olympic Game should not be disturbed. It is Sport after all.
