This is true, too, of Tibetan culture. As China furthers the cause of building socialism with Chinese characteristics, a new progressive culture will keep replacing an old and backward culture. Any attempt to impede and reverse such progress constitutes real destruction of a culture. Such an attempt can never succeed. Nor will the attempt of the Dalai Lama.展开更多
