Dear Mr. President Clinton,
Mrs. Madeleine Korbel Albright,
Mr. Kofi A. Annan,
U.S. officials are concerned by reports Hua Di, 62, a senior
mainland Chinese missile scientist and permanent U.S. resident
who has been jailed in the mainland since January for alleged
spying, is having health problems.
Other reports was referring to the detention of some 40 prodemocracy
activists in recent days s well as other curbs. State Department
James Foley called such moves "steps in the wrong direction".
Meanwhile; mainland Chinese authorities have forced 49 Tibetan
monks over 60 to retire in Qinghai province, calling efforts
to curb the number of Tibetan Buddhist monasteries and clerics
"particularly troublesome".
At the recent time; the Dalai Lama, who arrives next week for
a visit that will include a stop at the White House, plans to
take a key step toward restarting direct talks with the mainland
Chinese government on autonomy for Tibet, his supports said
Thursday (Oct. 29 1998).
Reviewing that mainland Chinese President Jiang Zemin, at his
Beijing summit with President Bill Clinton in June, said "
the door to dialogue and negotiations is open" but only
if the Dalai Lama acknowledge part of China and that Taiwan
is province.
The Dalai Lama, who fled his Himalayan homeland after a failed
1959 uprising against mainland Chinese rule, has said he seeks
greater autonomy --- not independence --- for Tibet.
Please wait and see what's happen after meeting was going on.
Tibet need your support.
