Thousands of Tibetans welcomed the late Panchen Lama’s daughter, Rinchen Wangmo, and her mother during their secret visit to Jokhang Temple in Lhasa on June 20. Unusual and unexpected large crowds gathered to welcome Wangmo despite Lhasa being under a strict security clampdown. Immediately, large numbers of military personel were deployed in front of the Jokhang Temple and nearby Ramoche Temple to control the huge public gathering.
