My own duty as a Tibetan: What I wrote to TPIE as per their recent decree to the people to sound off their notions and concerns


Subject: Mine is a great worry

Respected Chitues and the executive members, 

I, as an ordinary Tibetan, would like to entreat you to make the needy amendments in the charters of our constitution so as to resurrect our Supreme Justice Commission and make it operational. And do also make a way to the appointment of the rest of kalons rather than sticking on to the same old, backward ways of ours, the same narrow sense of siding and finding a protection in it. Once ruined, like the life of a person, the structure of our administration, it will take a long time ahead to be able to make it fully functional once again. In essence, please listen to and respect the people's earnest appeals, for you are our representatives, our servants, not our commanders. Though I don't have my own specified terms or points as per the charters of the constitution to be amended, I do support the people's appeals that you've rejected as 'nameless'. Please don't do so. Please move forward and be eclectic rather than being that hardy among ourselves. Once cast in an alien lot, like abroad, why can't we be that assertive, pugnacious? Please don't do so, please. Please present yourselves as what you're for us, our representatives who decide our future toward the right, timely opportune, direction for our mutual benefits as Tibetans. Please be what you're supposed to be in the parliament and do the jobs in due form. But, if you think you've your own ways of doing things or setting something right that don't get on with the political policy of our administration in exile, you can do them outside of it, on your own terms and by shouldering the full responsibility on yourself. 

Please keep the house in order, with the etiquette well followed and respect between yourselves, as to show us the right examples. Please reset and finetune your way of thinking and looking toward the world at large. Don't let yourselves get stuck to something like an old duel, when the world is moving forward to embrace the notion of humanity, to encounter the challenges that threaten its existence be it made by ourselves or any. 

When we aren't aware of something collective a measure like 'sewage management' and its process, what do we have to brawl and wrangle for, pit for among ourselves that isn't for nation-building but dismantling what we, by the sublime grace and guidance of HHDL, have rigged up so far as the means of our survival in exile, to fight for our rights. 

Please listen to the unbiased voice of the people, not to those sick maniacs who are active online! I do respectfully entreat for your consideration that's wise, wide-viewed. 

With regards and hopes.
