Dharamsala,
Jan 14: Tibetans-living-in-exile here have urged Prime Minister Dr.
Manmohan Singh to raise the Tibetan issue with China.
They said that India had stake enough in the Tibet issue to raise it
with China during Singh's ongoing visit to the neighbouring country.
"The issue of Tibet should be raised specially from the Indian
counterpart, because India has so much stake in the whole Tibet issue.
I pray that Dr. Singh would sincerely raise this issue," said Tsering
Choeying, President of the Free Tibet of Indian Chapter.
New Delhi, Jan. 12: The Prime Minister, Dr. Manmohan Singh, and his Chinese counterpart, Wen Jiabao, are expected to call for formal negotiations on a regional trading arrangement during Dr. Singh's three-day official visit to Beijing starting from Sunday morning.
This next step forward, according to official sources, will be based on the recommendation made by a joint task force that was appointed by both countries to study the feasibility and benefits accruing from such a regional arrangement.
