Olympics boycott by Tibetan is not the right way to solve their problem. The Tibetans are regularly creating problems for other countries too. On March 21, days after the trouble in Lhasa and surrounding areas had subsided, a group of Tibetans stormed into the Chinese Embassy in New Delhi wearing shirts emblazoned with the slogan, “Boycott The Olympics”. They have also been creating problems while Olympics torch is being run from different counties and saying to the World coming with us. How can other countries come with Tibet on this issue while Tibet cannot care for other countries’ Olympics players?
It will be better for Tibet to talk about their problems non-violently. Even Prime Minister Wen Jiabao has assured the Tibetan people that the government would continue to improve the region’s economy and strive to protect Tibetan culture.
