It is a proud moment for Tibet and Tibetans that our honorable Sikyong Penpa Tsering La is a well-educated, humble, honest, and courageous man. Thank you OxfordUnion for presenting such a platform to our Sikyong to speak about Tibet and Tibetans. We have been suffering under the aggression of the PRC for generations to generations during the last 60 years. However, under the guidance of HH The Great 14th Dalai Lama, we are not fighting for Independence but, for the Middle Way approach. May Peace prevail on earth.

We Tibetans have been through an extremely traumatic experience since 1959 under the occupation of China. Thank you for giving an opportunity to our Sikyong and Tibetan people 🙏

Thank you for inviting our Sikyong, very informative
Well i appreciate Oxford Union for providing platform to Sikyong(President) Penpa Tsering the voice of Tibetan community to share the view point of Tibetans across the world. He clearly said that his holiness Dalai Lama didn't allowed them to use violence to get their rights from China. Yet Dalai Lama was attacked. I really wish this issue gets resolved..
VERY NICE TO HEAR SIKYONG PENBA TSERING LA AT OXFORD UNION, THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT FOR TIBET.
Thank you so much for your wonderful work for the Tibetan course.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🌹🌹🌹🍎🍎🍎🌺🌺🌺
Thank You sikyong. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Very humble and ease to listen
Great honor 🙏
I am learning so much from this Tibetan PM. He is highly knowledgeable about Tibet and is very straightforward. Love it.
Thank you very much Oxford for organising this so that many audiences would know about our country Tibet at least. This kind of platform help to spread the awareness about Tibet to larger public.
This was a truly excellent discourse on the plight of the Tibetan people and Tibet. It is an absolute disgrace that most Western countries have made themselves reliant upon importing and exporting to/from China, the world's biggest bully, allowing themselves to be dictated to for fear of losing revenue. I try to avoid buying any food imported from China in my country. Good questions too 🙏🧚😥
Amazingly beautiful speech and very very high expert for sure….
Thank you Oxford and honorable Sikyong la. Amazing talk and QA

Well chinese have already made accountable to those 1% slave master Tibu people . And you 1% don’t represent other people lol no matter how much you try to talon loud . Every Tibetan has their own view point .
Tibet is known as the roof of the world because its average height is more than 4000 m above the sea level. Also, the highest peak in the world, that is Mount Everest, is also present in Tibet.
Sikyong Chok; you were amazingly cool and totally awesome. You had the entire audience mesmerized and hypnotized lending their entire ears trying to drink in every word you spoke just like they had done with our former Sikyong. Tibet is so fortunate to have the both of you in this dire need of our history. We truly take a great pride in the former Sikyong and now you ; Sir ✊ ! I am so charged with emotion😊❤✊💪 right this moment😅. 🪷🪷🪷🪷🪷🪷🪷🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽. 🎉

Tibetan leader should be invited in Us Congress , un general assembly , European Parliament , G 7 , G 20 etc , this will change world stand on Tibet and China will have to negotiate on Tibetan
And again thank you so much for Oxford Union all the representatives. All the good luck to everyone support all the beings in man made suffering should be clear soon in peace ways as human beings through kind thoughts. Everyone loves life please.
Thanks 🙏 ❤
Thank you! Excellent job Sikyong la! As your tenure matures year by year you represent more and more of your genuine qualities of endurance, resilience and spirit grounded in pure motivation and faith in the Dharma and His Holiness the Dalai Lama. In our tradition of Tibetanness those principles play a huge factor for anyone in the public service. Devoid of these a political leader is utterly nonsense. Keep up your good job. We have still so much to achieve. Truth is always on our side. Please accept my sincere appreciation! 🙏
Thank you Sikyong an Our Frnd Supporter Country 🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍🌷🌷🌷🌷💐💐💐
Thank you Penpa Tsering, for such an informative talk. Just as another great Tibetan said " We have to keep the flame burning, to expel the darkness", however difficult it may be!

i wonder what the influence by the Chinese/Indian (asian/european) populations via the overland spice and silk routes had on the Tibetan peoples. Yes I recognize Tibetans rights however, realistically, in full recognition of 1.5 billion Chinese living in the eastern part of their country and relying on services and food stuffs from across the country, including but not limited to Tibet (inner Mongolia, etc), I would be very careful as to weigh the benefit of the 7 million Tibetans vs the 1.5 billion Chinese (20% of world's population). I like your presentation though and it certainly gives me "food" for thought.

The problem is, back in the day, to be considered part of a territory was to pay tribute to the emperor of that territory. Today, you’re talking about citizenship for every individual, taxes for the private citizen and election / voter rights etc. The idea of nationhood is drastically different from the past, so the stakes are much higher.
Hats off to sikyong
Your Excellency, you are a Statesman.
Some of points he highlighted so good ..but I felt shorts and precision on few others points though .....Tibet support Groups / organizations before and today's number , explaining facts on how some of the countries today are actually Victims by external forces since he already called out the names of the victims countries which is absolutely necessary yes but making sure why and how they are victims with Illustrations also to make sure it don't hurt the people of these mentioned victim countries ... and explaining facts how they are victims by external forces are very important in my opinion... But over all i think Sikyong did quite well though .... Thank you All Suppprters ... Sorry if i offended anyone It's just my observation and what I felt .....that's all ... Bhoe Gyalo
