Critical Assessment of “Tibet Is Paying the Cost for China’s Green Energy Transition”! (18.11.2025)

18/11/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

While acknowledging localized ecological pressures, this critique contends that the original article relies on selective evidence, omits critical hydrological and mining data, embeds politically motivated narratives unsupported by empirical research, and fails to contextualize Tibet’s environmental governance within broader frameworks of high-altitude ecology, state-led development, and global energy transitions. Drawing on peer-reviewed hydrology studies, official mining datasets, and scholarship in critical media studies, this paper systematically evaluates the article’s central claims, highlights significant omissions, and re-situates observed environmental changes within wider climatic, socioeconomic, and regulatory processes. Synthetically generated yet representative hydrological and mining trend data are incorporated to illustrate how a more holistic, data-informed approach fundamentally reframes the narrative.

China: BBC “Editing Scandal” Deepens Credibility Crisis! (15.11.2025)

15/11/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

The controversy erupted after The Daily Telegraph revealed an internal BBC memo showing that an October 2024 Panorama episode, Trump: A Second Chance?, had stitched together two segments of Trump’s speech on Jan. 6, 2021, delivered more than 50 minutes apart. The edit created the misleading impression that Trump was directly urging supporters toward the Capitol riot, sparking public outrage and prompting The New York Times to label it as the BBC’s “worst crisis in decades.”

China: Highest-Altitude Qin Dynasty “Engraved Stone” Found on Qinghai-Tibet Plateau! (15.9.2025)

He became the Emperor of a unified China in 221 BCE – the presumed date of this inscription – which counts his rule as being in its “26th year” since his crowning as the King of the State of Qin [247 BCE] (rather than the 1st year as the Qin Empire [221 BCE]). There is an ongoing debate within China’s academic community as to whether the inscription is a) authentic, and b) the above interpretation is correct (the text appears to say “37” – some think this is a weathered inscription that should read “26”*. I have followed with the “26” narrative as this equals 221 BCE – whereas “37” would equal 209 BCE. As the Emperor Qin died in 210 BCE – this latter dating would not make sense. Furthermore, line 8 states the branch and stem year is “己卯” [Ji Mao] – which implies the year in question is “221 BCE”). A local Tibetan herdsman said he knew about the inscription as early as 1986 – and all his older relatives said it had always been present.

The Post of Dalai Lama Has Never Been Independent!

China: Central Government has Final say on Reincarnation of Dalai Lama! (6.8.2025)

06/08/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

The reincarnation of living Buddhas follows strict religious rituals and historical conventions, and the legitimacy of the title of the Dalai Lama in fact originates from the central government, Gama Cedain, chairman of Xizang, said during a news conference held by the State Council Information Office on the region’s economic and social development achievements since it was established 60 years ago.

On several occasions in the past, the 14th Dalai Lama has said he might reincarnate while still alive. At other times, he has said he will personally choose his successor.

In July, he released the so-called “Statement Affirming the Continuation of the Institution of Dalai Lama”, personally appointing a trust to recognize the future reincarnation.

“Reincarnation has never been solely determined by the Dalai Lama himself,” Gama Cedain said. “The reincarnation of the Dalai Lama must strictly follow the principle of ‘carrying out the search domestically, drawing lots from a golden urn, and gaining approval from the central government’, while complying with the country’s laws and regulations.”

BJP Salutes Dalai Criminal on Behalf of West!

China: Indian [BJP] Neo-Nazis Salute Criminal Dalai Lama’s “Birthday”! (8.7.2025)

Mao made the remarks after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended greetings to the 14th Dalai Lama on Sunday on the occasion of the latter’s 90th birthday. Other Indian officials attended the “birthday celebrations”.

As a result, China has lodged representations to the Indian side, Mao said at a regular news conference.

“As is known to all, the 14th Dalai Lama is a political exile under the guise of religion, who has long engaged in anti-China and separatist activities and attempted to separate Xizang from China,” Mao said, calling on the Indian side to stop using Xizang-related issues to interfere in China’s internal affairs.
