REMEMBERING MY MOST REVEREDTUTOR DUNGKAL LOSANG. TRINLEY

On looking back on my life, I find I have met many people to whom I am indebted.

Among them, most reverend and admired is my tutor, Mr. Dungkal Losang Trinley.

My Story： from Shepherd Boy to County Magistrate

I was born in 1961,the second year after the Tibetan Democratic Reform.Now,I am more than fifty years old.I am a lucky dog to be living in the times when millions of Tibetan serfs have been liberated.The older generations have spent the first half of their lives in the darkness of old Tibet. My father told me that there were six people in our family then,yet the livestock belonging to our family amounted to no more than 50 sheep...no-where near enough to make a living.So everyone had to work     

A Businessman from Northern Tibet in Tromskgkang Market

<正>Although I am naturally born for business,I urge my children to do their best in school since I do not want them to be useless and without knowledge,not even properly equipped to find their way to a nearby restroom to relieve themselves,in a way similar to yaks and sheep.     

Circles AND CYCLES

正Coming to Tibet I came to Tibet in the normal way,that is,the normal way for many of the workers and students coming to Tibet:42hours on a train from Chengdu to Lhasa.Also,like many of the workers and students,I had a ticket for a hard seat.     

An Old Tibetan Lady AND NATIONAL FLAG

Lying at Zam Border Portin Nylam County, Xigaze,is a small village facingNepal across the emeraldmountain. A red flag has been fluttering over a small house there everyday ever since the 1970s."Why do you do this everyday?" this reporter asked CeringQoizin, 84, the house owner."I am a Communist Party member!

ECONOMY & SOCIETY

正01"I am 24 years old this year and have two kids. The company I work for produces grape wine, and I myself work in the production department. I'm on the job seven hours a day, and I already have five years of experience. I come from this village, so unlike many of my colleagues who live in communal factory-provided dorms, I can go home every day to be with my family. It's really great     

三百六十五里路

What kind of roads have you traveled on?Perhaps the mountain path you walked on behind your mother?Or the bridleway on which you left your hometown?I have not walked on those roads,but I am going to tell you about a road along which the peach trees blossom.     

Flying Across THE CHANGTANG GRASSLANDS

Iharbor a special feeling for northern Tibet where I once flew morethan 40 hours on a snowstorm rescue mission.As my plane sped over the Kunlunshan Mountains, I noticed the skywas unusually blue, something onecould hardly find in China's hinterland.Below, however, the entire mountainrange was buried deep under snow.The vast Changtang Grasslands lookedlike a green carpet with beautiful patterns formed by undulating hills andrippling river waters. And the QinghaiTibet Highway looked like a …     

HIP-HOP DANCERS IN THE BARKHOR STREET

In comparison with my first visit to Lhasa,the transportation situation is now much improved.Taxies, rickshaws,buses and other means of public transport are almost up to expectations.Nevertheless,I prefer to walk instead.Sometimes I wander among the high-rise buildings in the west part of the city and at other times in the Barkhor Street that it is just like a maze on rainy days.Once, I strolled from the west part of the city to the Barkhor Street.This trip was just like changing time zones, from the mod...     

JESS IN TIME——Moving from Sea to Sea ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Mom Quizin, who is 60 years old, lives in Lhasa and has a rigid daily routine: every seven or eight days she buys several jin (two jin equal one kg) of Gurum Zanba of high grade to enjoy at home. She said, “I am not young now, and I favor nothing but this.“     

边巴片多,从民歌手到氆氇大王

The first appointment I had with Penpa Pendok was at Jokhang Temple Square.Though we had never met,I could still tell that the lady dressed in brown Tibetan clothes and with a stylish handbag had to be my interviewee of the day.I gathered this by the way she walked,full of confidence and energy,just like her voice when we talked over the phone.     

Give Me a Pot of Sweet Tea

For those who come to Tibet for the first time,butter tea is on their list to try.I, however,am an exception to the rule because butter tea just does not agree with me. I prefer the delicate fragrance of sweet tea but enjoy watching Tibetans light butterburning lamps and the serenity of the light from butter lamps in dimly lit monasteries. During my trip through the middle of nowhere on the plateau,we had a happy encounter with some herdsmen taking a break from their journey.     

SALDRON,A WOMAN PUSHING FOR DREAMS

正In December,it is sunny but freezing in Lhasa.I met Saldron in a Western restaurant to the west of the Potala Palace.A pair of broad-brimmed glasses on her fair-skinned face and short slightly curled hair under a purplish blue hat,Saldron took a black pack on her back and looked like a free and casual college student.A Thankful Heart for Her Eleven Years of Study in the Mainland     

德吉旺姆和公尊德姆农庄（英文）

正I would often read stories online about the strenuous efforts made by Degyi Wangmo in her entrepreneurial career as she founded her Gongdro Demo Farmstead in Sosong Village of Menling County of the Tibet Autonomous Region.Later,in June of 2020,I just so happened to get a chance to visit the village for myself.A group of us,over 20 people,took a bus,setting off from downtown Nyingchi,and something like two hours later,we arrived at Tunbai Village in Pai Township.     

READER＇S LETTER

Dear Editor China＇s Tibet Magazine： Number 3 arrived. I subscribed to Chinas Tibet magazine 10 years ago and I am happy I take the magazine out of the envelope. Look at the cover, then I glance at the pictures page by page to get first impression, then read the articles. I look at the cover again and it opens my eyes.
