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.

 

Sincerely Yours,
Yang Hsu-Tung.
President of
