"China's Olympic Truce
Resolution" Excluding Values
On Wednesday October 31st China
will introduce its Olympic
Truce resolution at the UN General Assembly. The Resolution
is entitled "Building a Peaceful and Better World through Sport and the
Olympic Ideal.
According
to the International Olympic Committee the Olympic
Truce Resolutions role in modern games is “protecting, as far
as
the as
possible the interests of the athletes and sport in general, and to
continue for
the search for the search for peaceful and diplomatic solutions to the
world’s
conflicts.” It seems that its role does
not extend to
the Tibetan
conflict.
Latest threat from China: Toxic
clothes?
Other recent problems have
involved toxic pet food, toothpaste laced with an ingredient used in
anti-freeze and car tyres that were allegedly missing a key safety
feature.
Cheap
clothes made in China have been found to contain high levels of a
potentially dangerous chemical.
Formaldehyde
is used to protect clothes that have to be shipped great distances
against mildew. The
ongoing rows over the quality of Chinese goods threatens a diplomatic
row between East and West.

Tibetan
language broadcasts in danger
The Tibetan language broadcasts of Radio Free Asia (RFA) and Voice of
America (VOA) - US-based radio programs that broadcast into Tibet may be in danger
of losing some critical US
government funding. The Broadcasting Board of Governors' (BBG), which
oversees
RFA and VOA, has proposed a reduction of US
congressional
funding for the Tibetan broadcasts. This is very alarming! RFA and VOA
are the
only independent sources of news available to Tibetans inside
Chinese-occupied Tibet,
whose access to outside information is
entirely restricted by China's
media censorship. Click here to read the full story and take
