I am writer (history and guidebooks), living in self-imposed 😉 exile in India, recently I was asked by diplomatic magazine to write an article about Tibetan question.
It’s not a matter of my primary interest (subject of my books is India), however it happened that I have lived for almost 2 years in Dharamsala, India, home to Tibetan exiles. However I have almost no connection to Tibetans, despite very close proximity. Of course I interact with them in market, on streets, recently I witnessed few demonstrations, but nothing specially close. I was lately busy with submitting very big manuscript of my book so I almost had no time to participate in lively and sometimes bad-tempered debates about fate of Tibet.
What do you think I should write about, do you have any suggestions in this regard, if this topic was interesting for you?
If some questions will arise I will be happy to elaborate in posts, however I respectfully ask not to indulge in extreme opinions, bordering on pure propaganda from both sides of this old conflict.
p.s. I wrote 2 diaries on Eurotrib, however some Chinese (or undercover) bloggers were indulging in spreading false information and making personal attacks on me, Tibetan society and Dalai lama. That’s why I left that blog. I hope they will not come here 😉
