Tibetan teachers in Tibet are demanding better pay and benefits. After a recent sit-in protest was ignored, over 100 teachers set out to march to Xining, but stopped in Qinghai when they were told their concerns would be addressed. There is concern about the treatment of Tibetan teachers and that Han Chinese are frequently hired ahead of Tibetans. Facility in the Chinese language is often a requirement for promotion.
