Free Tibet before free trade.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
That foreign trade should be fair rather than free.
I swear I will do everything in my power to change the situation in Tibet where human rights are being suppressed. Tibet seeks freedom and democracy and we agree on those values.
The individual must not be allowed to be overly free, but the country must be entirely free. When the country can exercise freedom, China will have become a mighty and prosperous nation.
Likewise, free trade does not, as evidenced in CAFTA, mean fair trade.
The Chinese government wants me to say that for many centuries Tibet has been part of China. Even if I make that statement, many people would just laugh. And my statement will not change past history. History is history.
There was free trade in Africa. There was free enterprise in Africa before the colonialists came.
My father documented on film for the last time what Tibet looked like before the world got there.
We need fair and free trade.
I am a firm believer in free but fair trade. However the United States should not be on the losing end of trade agreements that are not enforced. It is time that we make China play fairly.
When the nation can act freely, then China may be called strong. To make the nation free, we must each sacrifice his freedom.
