On the afternoon of 15th Sep, 2015, Chimed Rigzin, the vicechairman of the southwest China’s Tibet Autonomous Region, gave an exclusive interview to the delegation of Nepal mainstream media in Lhasa, the capital city of the southwest China’s Autonomous Region.
Chimed Rigzin extended a warm welcome to Nepal’s delegation and introduced the great development of Tibet ,especially in economy, education, culture,sanitation and technology over the past 60-odd years. He said: “At present, Tibet presents a picture mixing traditional and modern elements, featuring economic and political progress,cultural prosperity, social harmony, sound ecosystem and a happy and healthy life for the local people. All these show that only by adhering to the leadership of the CPC, the socialist system and the system of regional ethnic autonomy, can Tibetans become and remain the masters of their own affairs, and can the fundamental interests of the Tibetan people be safeguarded and developed.” In addition, he reaffirmed that, China cherishes its traditional friendship with Nepal and still upholds the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence.
The media from Nepal showed thanks for Tibet’s thoughtful arrangements. Besides, they will show the real Tibet to the world and look forward to more opportunities for communication.
