Property Seizure

March 9, 2017;

Rongwo Monastery in Rebgong county is appealing for the return of their property and land which was leased to a teacher’s college and then seized by local authorities last year. The monastery, which is very short of resources, has received no reply to their petition. Security is tight in the region with edicts for monasteries to work in strict compliance with Chinese-influenced management committees.
