Tibetan is our root; removing Tibetan from college entrance exam is cutting off our root
Dharamshala — Tibetans living in Tibet and exile have expressed deep concern over the Chinese government's decision to remove the Tibetan language from the college entrance exams, forcing Tibetan children to learn mainly Chinese rather than Tibetan. One Tibetan woman said, "Tibetan is our root, it is the soul passed down by our ancestors for generations. Now they want to remove Tibetan from the college entrance exams? Isn't that cutting us off from our roots? Where is the equality in education?"
