Nepal is falling in the clutches of china every day more. The former peaceful Hindu Nation (and with many Buddhists as well) is becoming increasingly Communist and is making life for the Tibetans in Nepal harder. further, the borders are now almost totally closed, with army personnel all over the Himalayas, thus making it sheer impossible for Tibetans to cross the border to Nepal. ** Nepal, a transit for Tibetan refugees feeling Tibet for India and a home for some 20000 Tibetan refugees, has decided to deny documents to Tibetan refugees arriving in the country, AsiaNews reported. We have decided to no longer provide identity cards to Tibetan refugees. If we continue to recognize them as such, we will face new waves of immigration. And we have no more space,” AsiaNews quoted Shes Narayan Poudel, chief of the National Commission for the Coordination of Refugees, as saying. Nepal has long been a transit for Tibetans fleeing repression under China with an average of 2000 Tibetans crossing the border to until 2008 when widespread protests across the Tibetan plateau was crushed by the Chinese government. The number has now dwindled with only 200 Tibetans recorded to have crossed into Nepal in 2013.
