Commentary: Facts about Tibet should not be distorted
Adjust font size:

 

Do they understand the expectations of the Chinese people for the Beijing Olympic Games and sincere willingness to share the grand event with people from all over the world?

Do they maintain their so-called impartiality, justice, free speech and professionalism in reporting?

It is obvious: facts should not be distorted and truth should not be hidden, while lies never become truth and a sense of justice is common to all people!

The Chinese government's position and measures won wide support and understanding from international society. Many countries and organizations including Pakistan, Singapore, India, African and Arabic nations, and foreign diplomats in China, voiced their support.

The Shanghai Cooperation Organization said in a statement that it backed the Chinese government's measures to maintain order and stability in Tibet.

All of this friendly, firm support showcases respect for facts and truth, as well as trust and friendship in China and its people by those countries, which believe in truth and justice.

Tibetan people exposed the conspiracy of the Dalai Lama's clique, which was supported by some western forces hostile to China urging the secession of Tibet from the motherland and undermining the peaceful environment for the upcoming Olympics.

International opinion will always stand by the truth. Biased, dishonest reports by some western media can not represent true public opinion, especially in an information age of increasing globalization.

Tens of thousands of netizens from China and abroad have been angered by biased and sometimes dishonest reports about the recent riots in Tibet by some western media, and answered calls to condemn some western media organizations for exaggerated and distorted reporting of the issue.

As objective, just and rational reports and comments have increased, we believe, Chinese people including Tibetan people, and people from all over the world who love peace and cherish friendship are sure to make a clear distinction between right and wrong and support social stability and progress in Tibet.

We also believe that athletes and audiences from all over the world will actively join in the Olympics, when they will be welcomed by a big smile from the Chinese people.
