50年来中央对西藏的关怀

The Central Government＇s 50 Years＇ of Solicitude for Tibet

今年是西藏民主改革50周年。50年在人类历史长河中不过是短暂一瞬，但在西藏这片古老而神奇的土地上却创造了旷世未有的人间奇迹。从肃穆的藏北高原到盎然的藏南谷地，从草原的牧民帐篷到热闹的拉萨街头，雪域高原焕发出勃勃生机，一个繁荣昌盛、充满活力的社会主义新西藏展现在世人面前。西藏50年的历史巨变，蕴含着党中央的深情关切。以毛泽东同志为核心的党的第一代中央领导集体，顺应西藏人民翻身解放的强烈愿望，带领西藏人民进行民主改革，实行民族区域自治，

This year witnesses the 50th anniversary of the democratic reform in Tibet. Fifty years is but a blink of the eye in the long sweep of human history but, for Tibet -- this expanse of ancient and mystical terrain - it has wrought a miracle unparalleled in the human world. From the stark plateau in Tibet＇s north to the rich valleys of its south, and from the tents of pastoral nomads on the grasslands to the bustling lanes of Lhasa, the glittering snow-mantled plateau brims with vitality, a dynamic, and a flourishing new socialist Tibet now presents itself to the world.
