95' my first trip to Tibet. It was extremely poor
People were dreaming of better lives and CPC delivered
Today poverty is close to being eradicated, all have access to education and much greater health system
Life expectancy went from 35.5 y.old in 1959 to 68.2 y.old today
FACTS
Tibet 2.
I saw the transformation of Tibet & China and it is mind-blowing.
The life of people is much better and improving every day.
Westerners watch "7 years in Tibet" and think they know.
Under the Dailai Lama it was a brutal theocratic place, slavery and human right abuses
