Supporters of the Dalai Lama
have published a new world map guaranteed to arouse a hostile reception
in China.
For not only does the map show
Tibet as an independent country, but also includes a combined nation
of Mongolia and China’s Inner Mongolia.
Rohit Singh of the Friends
of Tibet Campaign noted during the unveiling of the map, "A country
is identified by its boundaries and presence on the political map. Tibet
was an independent country until China occupied it and diminished it
from face of world atlases. This initiative is for reestablishing Tibet
on the world map, to focus on the aspect of its position, its importance
and its existence which China is out to destroy."
Additionally, the new world
map illustrates Turkistan, and Manchuria as separate countries along
side China.
