About Chinese Web Monitors
It is a common practice for the Chinese to have Web monitors roam the Web and place a collection from a one-sided google list of resources to create a singular point of view. This is not a valid form of research, but, it is effective propaganda if one is not careful.

On all sides, it is simplistic or an attempt at propaganda to create a preinvented point of view and then provide a google list of sites for support and call it fair and balanced research. Of course it is not and the truth is much harder to come by,

All information should be considered and carefully measured ...

It does however speak volumes when an anonymous poster will also resort to personal character attack when his or her research fails to win over. This make the "research" even more suspect and is a common practice among Chinese Web monitors. Even prior to the Web, Richard Gere was subjected to libel, slander and personal attacks as evidence to the impact the Chinese feared he was having on behalf of Tibet.

When considering information created by educational research funded by grants, or "experts" it is important to look behind the grant funding names to see who it is that actually funds the research and grants to better determine the credibility or point of view of the research or researcher.

It is important to question the motive behind any Anonymous Web Names that offer no credibility or credentials and only provide research to a single point of view. While all information is worth a look and all information should be further researched, considered and verified, without identity or credentials material and motive on either side should be approached cautiously.

Visually and respectfully, Joe Mickey, Co-Founder of The Tibetan Photo Project

*******
The first collection of photos taken by Tibetans living in exile in India is creating a voice through media coverage and two exhibits of the Tibetan Photo Project.

The Tibetan Photo Project offers the first collection of photos taken by Tibetans living in exile, images of the Dalai Lama, informational texts and rare 1932 pictures of Tibet.

The perspective provided from the modern history of Tibet and China reveals a great deal about the nature of China's future leadership. The lessons have become even more relevant with the rise to power by Hu Jintao, China's former hardline secretary to Tibet.
