19 March 2008

Protests continued to grow – in Ngaba a crowd swelled to around 300 people, waving Tibetan flags and shouting pro-independence slogans. Protesters replaced Chinese flags on a number of official buildings with Tibetan national flags to a cheering crowd. In Dartsedo, Kham acts of resistance continued despite the massive show of force by Chinese security forces.
