Letters to US President Barack Obama

On the Statehood of Palestine and How It Relates to Taiwan’s Sovereignty

Sunday, 05 July 2009 14:40 Leo Wang Letters For Taiwan - Letters to US President Barack Obama

Dear President Obama:

I like to congratulate you on your decision to support the establishment of an independent Palestinian state (as reported by Reuters’ Mohammed Assadi’s “Palestinian Dismay, US and EU cautious on Netanyahu” on Monday June 15).  Albeit difficult, we pray that this will be the first step that will bring peace and democracy to the Middle East; and eventually, to the rest of the world.

DHARAMSHALA, October 4: In reports coming out of Tibet, another Tibetan man has set himself of fire today in an apparent protest against China’s continued occupation of Tibet, taking Tibet’s self-immolation toll to 53.

Sources from inside Tibet, using a popular phone interface programme, have said that Gudrub, 43, torched himself in Nagchu town in central Tibet at around 10 am (local time). He is believed to have passed away at the site of his protest.
