Sir, – Over 80 Tibetan people have burned themselves alive to protest against Chinese brutality resulting from China’s colonisation of Tibet. The self-immolations started in 2009 and are ongoing and escalating. This reality has been under-reported in the world’s media. We don’t even see any debates or dialogue about it.

How can we ignore this great tragedy? And what is the price of that ignorance? – Yours, etc,
