Regarding: Open Letter by Geng He, Wife of Human Rights Attorney Gao Zhisheng

I am responding to the article, Open Letter by Geng He, Wife of Human Rights Attorney Gao Zhisheng. We, the Tibetan people all over the world, are deeply indebted to your husband and our hero—human rights attorney Gao Zhisheng for his contribution to human rights and democracy in China. He is a symbol of hope and democracy in China.

We deeply respect him and feel extremely disgusted to see him abducted a number of times by the Chinese Communist Party. We are also sorry that you and your two children had to flee your country to safety in the United States. We will do our best to let the world know that Gao Zhisheng is not a criminal, but a hero of the Chinese and Tibetan people. Please do not loose hope as the Chinese Communist Party cannot silence your husband forever.

Long live the 1,500 year old firm and sincere friendship (harmony) that Chinese and Tibetans share.
