MCLEODGANJ: A group of Tibetan youth has released a video portraying Chinese president Hu Jintao's successor, Xi Jinping, a cruel person, whose only response to the Tibetan resistance is to order arrests and torture of protestors.
The video titled 'Tibetans challenge Jinping - Gangnam style' features song and dance portraying Jinping to protest China's occupation of Tibet and repression there.
"We had launched this parody video on the eve of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)'s 18th congress. We have used Korean pop-star Psy's famous Gangnam style and the video features China's heir Xi Jinping whose only response to Tibetans' growing resistance is to arrest, beat and torture protestors," said McLeodganj-based Students for Free Tibet national director Dorjee Tsenten (29). "We have used the song of Psy and his popular Gangnam style to show what is going on inside Tibet and how Chinese government is muzzling the voices of people."
The video was launched on YouTube and Youku, China's biggest video hosting service, on November 7 hours before the start of CC congress. It has since gone viral. Many Chinese and Taiwanese also viewed and shared it before censors blocked it.
"We want to reach out to all -- across all countries -- to show them how Chinese leadership is working. They are not talking to us or discussing. They have only one solution to beat, torture and to kill Tibetan protestors," said SFT campaign director Tenzin Jindra. "We have to try to prove that Xi cannot stop Tibetans who are moving beyond fear and challenging the Chinese rule in Tibet. The joke is on him and we are challenging him to resolve the Tibet crisis now or Tibet will soon become your biggest headache."
This video shows that despite many restrictions, Xi is unable to stop Tibetan protestors from waving their flags and disseminating their messages.
Four Tibetans had set themselves afire on the eve of CCP congress's to protest Chinese repression.
