洛桑桑蓋的文章説：“今年春天，在茉莉花革命期間，在人們為爭取民主出生入死，在格達費上校在利比亞為了保住自己的政權依然在殺人的時候，達賴喇嘛不顧西藏人的激情呼籲，把自己的政治權力移交給民主選舉産生的西藏人領袖。這意味著達賴喇嘛放棄了解散議會、司法和行政機關、簽署或否決議案、召集緊急會議、以及任命外駐外代表和特使的憲法權力。2 J }* b' k$ C9 `7 H; r

This spring, when people put their lives on the line for democracy during the Jasmine Revolution, with Col. Moammar Gaddafi still shedding blood to hold on to power in Libya, and despite impassioned appeals by Tibetans, the Dalai Lama devolved all his political power to democratically elected Tibetan leaders. That means that the Dalai Lama gave up his constitutional power to dismiss the Tibetan parliament, judiciary and executive; to sign or veto bills; to summon emergency meetings; and to appoint representatives and envoys abroad. 6 K5 C: j d0 R. aTVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。 tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb/ u; I$ T% d3 r' S8 D. ^

The Dalai Lama’s democratic changes began as early as 1954, with the establishment of a reform committee to exempt poor farmers and indigent Tibetans from heavy taxes.

After Tibet was occupied, the Dalai Lama arrived in India in 1959. His vision of a secular democratic society began to be realized. In 1960, at the behest of the then-25-year-old Dalai Lama, Tibetans elected their first parliament; soon, Tibetan women were elected as representatives. Tibet’s first democratic constitution, adopted in 1963, included, at his insistence, a provision to allow for the impeachment of the Dalai Lama.! t3 y1 ?2 A" F9 r, m- k

This moment poses a test for the authoritarian regime in China. Tibet has endured 50 years of rule by force. The current state of affairs in Tibet — undeclared martial law, with ongoing protests in Kirti and Kardze and a ban on tourists — shows that Beijing’s rule in Tibet has failed. Instead of hosting indicted war criminals such as Sudanese President Omar Hassan al-Bashir in the Great Hall, Beijing’s leadership has a golden opportunity to prove its sincerity, garner good will and improve the image of China if it would, as the Dalai Lama devolved his political authority, devolve its power to Tibetans to resolve the issue of Tibet.5.39.217.762 P" [, N0 r$ v2 E
