Reflection

When I first started to ponder about research projects, the Tibet v.s. China Controversy seemed very interesting. When I thought of this topic, I was hooked immediately. So far, I have greatly enjoyed this subject and can’t wait to find out more. While researching, I have learned a lot about the difference between the culture’s of Tibet and China, along with the relationship between them. This topic is very interesting, and controversial.
The reason why this controversy is such a big deal, is because it is very debatable. There is Tibet protesting to be free on one side, and China trying to build a greater nation on the other. After researching both sides of the argument, I eventually came up with which side I am on. I decided that I was on Tibet’s side. This is because Tibet is the underdog, and they deserve their independence. I find their religion very unique and different from anything else. That is why they should be their own country. However, China’s argument is very convincing as well; and that is why this controversy is so debatable.
There is more to this topic then the differences between culture and beliefs. While researching one day, I read that China had kidnapped the Penchen Llama when it was a young boy. I find this topic very interesting. I wonder what China’s argument is. As you can see, the China and Tibet Controversy is a very appealing subject, and I have enjoyed learning about it this year.
