“As an activist, my deepest desire is not just to return to Tibet to reunite with my parents and siblings. More than anything, I want the younger generations, born in exile and strangers to their own country, to return before I do. I want them to witness the beauty of our homeland before it is irreparably damaged.
I want them to see the monumental mountains before they are scarred by mining, and the vast grasslands before they are erased by relentless development. I want them to see the pristine rivers and rivulets before they are choked and polluted by dams and industry. I want them to see the crystal-clear sky over the Tibetan plateau before it is covered by the dark clouds of Chinese industrialization. I want them to see their Tibetan brothers and sisters before their very identity is transformed.”
