[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Chinese government is relocating the local Tibetans from their villages and farms, to live along the main roads. They are building concrete bloc houses to repalce ancient cozy thick walled adobe houses. The Tibetans do not have a choice in any part of their own life in a Communist country. So they must give up their homes, and live along the main roads. the charge is $3000 for this home, which is impossible to pay usually. Their fate hangs on the govermemt whim at all times.

good picture
i do not understand when tibetians are not comfortable in china and even chinese dosenot take them as their brothers then why did they captured the area. i know many tibetians who wants to live with India and as every one knows "The Dalali Lama" the spritual leader of tibetians is also staying in India.
