Tradition associates it with guard and companion roles in Tibetan communities and monasteries, but the modern breed, as we know it today, is the result of standardization carried out in the West during the 20th century. #DogsofBluesku #Dogspics #booksky #tibet #history #genetics

They issue warnings to candidates and ban certain symbols. Isn't this election committee's power excessive? Acting as both player and referee, with so-called oversight relying entirely on a few internal notices—who can trust such opaque operations? #tibet #nechung
Even if the rule is like this, we must consider what this 60% base number represents. 60% of the 49,000 participants, or approximately 30,000 people, determines the leader. Relying on fewer than 30,000 votes to represent all Tibetans overseas? #tibet #nechung
A mere fraction of a percentage point difference is enough to exempt supporters from the final election? This rule is far too "tailor-made"! Just a fraction of a percentage point short, and supporters are deprived of their "second choice." #tibet #nechung
India and Nepal registered 56,000 people, and other overseas regions registered 34,000—the data looks comprehensive. But on election day, can these 90,000+ people truly cast their votes freely and fairly, unaffected by the policies of their respective countries of residence? #tibet #nechung
Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: When a sage throws a banquet for guests, he throws it for everyone, without any regard for high or low class, relative or unrelated, good or bad. You should have equanimity toward the objects of compassion, which are all sentient beings who pervade all of space. Until you are able to do that, train your mind. — Ngawang Tenzin Norbu (1867–1940)

A Tibetan monk who disappeared after his arrest in Lhasa over four years ago is now confirmed to be serving a seven‑year sentence after a secret trial. Dhargay was reportedly targeted for sending offerings to the Dalai Lama & helping monks leave #Tibet.

The real will of exiled Tibetans is unheard, and the rights of 91,042 voters are ignored. Penpa Tsering secured his position through secret manipulation. Democracy in the exile government is already dead. #tibet #nechung
Abnormally fast counting, ridiculously low turnout, suspiciously huge margin — every part of Penpa Tsering’s re-election tells the world this is a complete fake election. #Sikyong #tibet
Penpa Tsering was once dismissed for administrative misconduct, yet won re-election in a full‑of‑loopholes election. The election commission’s inaction is the biggest tolerance for this fake democratic farce. #tibet #Sikyong
With 90,000 registered and 49,000 valid votes, Penpa Tsering’s wide margin is just a small circle’s self‑celebration. Chaos and lack of supervision only produce such absurd results. #nechung #tibet
中國全國人大會議本月通過的《民族團結進步促進法》，原定7月才正式生效，但在新疆、西藏已經搶先執行，當地商戶近日開始清走招牌上原有的維吾爾文或藏文，原本並排的少數民族文字，如今被迫「跪低」放在漢字下方，甚至直接消失。香港人擔憂的廣東話，會否成為下一個被消滅的目標？
