Good morning, dear friends!

Buna dimineata prieteni!

Am primit acest e-mail si am semnat si eu petitia menita sa vina in sprijinul poporului

tibetan si a lui Dalai-Lama care cer deschiderea spre dialog si stiparea violentelor
trupelor chineze care terorizeaza populatia in zona de vreo 50 de ani.
Retransmit indemnul de a participa prin semnarea petitiei la schimbarea situatiei in
Tibet si cobstientizarea Chinei ca progresul trebuie sa insemne si, sau mai
ales, respectarea drepturilor omului.
Desigur, fiecare dintre voi va decide daca vrea sau nu sa semneze petitia.
Puteti afla cite ceva despre Tibet si despre Dalai Lama vizionind filmuletul urmator
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Zpf1DdArek&feature=related

Am tradus citeva informatii, gasite pe www.tibet.net, ca sa ne putem reprezenta

situatia. Acum Dalai Lama care a format un guven tibetan in exil inca de la invazia
Chinei, cere sa se opreasca violentele si sa se dea drumul dialogului. Site-ul pe care
puteti semna petitia se gaseste in partea scrisa in limba engleza.

"Invadata de China in 1949-50, tara independenta a Tibetului a fost confruntata cu pierderi

massive de vieti omenesti cauzate de lupte si imediat dupa aceea si-a pierdut
suveranitatea nationala, fiind strivita sub sub ideologia Chinei comuniste si a programelor
sale de Revolutie Culturala, care, in perioada 1967 – 1976 s-a straduit sa distruga
structural isentitatea culturala si religioasa aTibetului.
Politica Chinei de ocupatie si opresiune a insemnat nici mai mult nici mai putin,
distrugerea independentei nationale a Tibetului, a a culturii si religiei sale, a mediului
natural, incalcind grav legea universala a drepturilor omului.
Cu o istorie scrisa de 2000 de ani, Tibetul a existat cau stat independent si suveran. In
1914 a fost semnata o conventie de pace de catre Marea Britanie, China si Tobet, care
recunostea din nou, official, Tibetul ca tara total independenta. Cum insa Tibetul nu a avut
reprezentant la Natiunile Unite, lumea larga a stat deoparte permitind Chinei sa ocupe sis
a distruga fiinta nationala a Tibetului.
Tibetanii au demonstrate in repetate rinduri pentru independenta. Eforturile lor au fost
nonviolente, cerind sa se dea o sansa dialogului, insa raspunsul, chiar si pentru copii si
femei, a fost condamnarea la inchisoare. In 1998 1083 de tibetani cunoscuti erau
incarcerati in inchisorile chineze datorita opiniilo lor politice, religioase sau etice. Dintre
acestia 246 erau femei si 12 copii. "

Va doresc un weekend odihnitor si plin de pace!

Cu iubire, Odette

Hi,

I just signed an urgent petition calling on the Chinese government to respect human rights
in Tibet and engage in meaningful dialogue with the Dalai Lama. This is really important,
and I thought you might want to take action:

http://www.avaaz.org/en/tibet_end_the_violence/98.php/?cl_tf_sign=1

After nearly 50 years of Chinese rule, the Tibetans are sending out a global cry for change.
But violence is spreading across Tibet and neighbouring regions, and the Chinese regime
is right now considering a choice between increasing brutality or dialogue, that could
determine the future of Tibet and China.

We can affect this historic choice. China does care about its international reputation. Its
economy is totally dependent on "Made in China" exports that we all buy, and it is keen to
make the Olympics in Beijing this summer a celebration of a new China that is a respected
world power.

President Hu needs to hear that 'Brand China' and the Olympics can succeed only if he
makes the right choice. But it will take an avalanche of global people power to get his
attention. Click below to join me and sign a petition to President Hu calling for restraint in
Tibet and dialogue with the Dalai Lama -- and tell absolutely everyone you can right away.
The petition is organized by Avaaz, and they are urgently aiming to reach 1 million
signatures to deliver directly to Chinese officials:
