CHINA-TIBET: ANTI DALAI LAMA OUTFIT TO CEASE PROTESTS
In a statement on its website on March 10, 2016, the Directors of the International Shugden Community (ISC) announced they had decided to “completely stop organizing demonstrations against the Dalai Lama.” The undated message was in the name of Len Foley, an ISC spokesman. Nicholas Pitts, a Hong Kong-based spokesman for the ISC, did not respond to a request by Reuters for comments, while the Dalai Lama said he was aware of the decision by the ISC to disband. Asked by Reuters what was behind the group’s announcement, he said “I don’t know, your article was something complete, holistic sort of presentation, it was very helpful." |
