The tragic thing is that the DL is not much of a political leader.
His wisdom of governing is remained at the stage of how a
parrot handler should treat a pet parrot.

TIME: Can the Tibetans ever be loyal to a Chinese regime?
"...When I was young, I had a beautiful parrot. One attendant always
fed that parrot and so it was absolutely loyal to him. I got a little
bit jealous. On a few occasions, I fed it. But it never showed me any
loyalty. Then I used a stick. And then the loyalty was absolutely
gone."
--------------------------------
Simply put, governance menas responsiblity. It is far more than
bribing the people for their loyalty.
If the PRC simply wanted loyalty, the first thing was not to treat
them as citizens, but colonial subjects. China simply had to build
more
monasteries, to acknowledge and sup****t more God-kings. The
oversupply
of God-kings from different sects, new and old, will then compete for
good will and subsidies from Beijing. Living standard would remain
low
in Tibet. Birth rate would drop with more Tibetans devoted to
Buddhism.
