DHARAMSHALA: The Chinese government has planned measures to launch strike hard campaign to crackdown on Tibetans across Tibet, and those living in Tibet through collaboration with the Nepalese police, according to reports received by the Central Tibetan Administration.

The report said a meeting of Tibet Autonomous Region’s Public Security Bureau officials was held this April to launch the strike hard campaign to reinforce police crackdown on Tibetans in Lhasa, Tibet’s capital.

The strike hard campaign will give special powers only to a group of Chinese officials who are heading the Public Security Bureaus to implement the repressive measures like arbitrary detention, arrest, interrogation and beating of Tibetans.

During his transit stop at Vienna airport, His Holiness met Kurt Seinitz, Foreign News Editor of Kronenzeitung, Austria's largest newspaper with an average daily readership of nearly 3 million. Kurt Seinitz began by asking if His Holiness had a message for the people of Austria, and he replied, “Nothing special”. He went on to elaborate that Austrians like him are just human beings, some among the 7 billion who want a happy life and who have a right to achieve happiness. He pointed out that happiness derived from mere physical comfort tends to be shallow and fleeting, failing to pacify anxiety and fear, whereas if we have a calm mind it is effective in overcoming even physical pain, therefore we should not neglect the inner values that are a source of a calm mind. His Holiness said that he was most concerned to advise people to cultivate secular ethics, those inner values beyond religion that help us lead a peaceful and happy life.
