Gu-Chu-Sum, the organisation for former Tibetan Political Prisoners, has changed its political stand from complete independence for Tibet to the Middle-Way Approach, which is in line with the exile Tibetan government’s policy of seeking genuine autonomy for Tibet within China. The policy change came with its new elected executive committee. “In our organisation, there can be different political views and opinions”, said Lukar Jam, the outgoing vice President.
