Definition of Freedom of Religion in Tibet
The repression of freedom of religion is outstanding in Tibet and throughout 1997 Chinese authorities enhanced their brutal crackdown of the Tibetan people’s right to practice and express their religious beliefs. ... One is a “Strike Hard” campaign (or Crack Down Severely on Crimes), which has been implement in Tibet since April 1996. This campaign concentrated on targeting Tibetan religious institutions and initiates in an effort to stifle nationalistic feelings and support for the Dalai Lama, thereby breaking the backbone of the Tibetan national movement as well as striking at Tibet’s spiritual heart. ... Chinese work teams have been sent into monasteries and nunneries all over Tibet in order to conduct “ patriotic re-education” sessions and instruct monks on the “evils” of the Dalai Lama and Tibetan nationalism. Political work teams were even sent to remote rural and nomad areas, including area outside the Tibet sovereign region. China reported that so far some 30,000 of Tibet’s 46,000 Buddhist monks and nuns have received “patriotic re-education” and out of 1,787 monasteries and temples, have been covered by the Chinese work teams. ... Within a few years, more than 6,000 Tibet’s monasteries and nunneries were destroyed and some have been closed down during the “patriotic re-education” campaign.
