GRIM READER, FEB. 5, 2010: NGAWANG JIGME NGABO, DAVID BROWN AND STEPHEN HUNECK
Ngawang Jigme Ngabo “dithered” as Chinese troops invaded his native Tibet, then “sowed divisions” among the mountain region’s defenders before he “again let his nation down” by improperly signing away its sovereignty — for which he was subsequently “rewarded by the Chinese” with a series of senior posts. No wonder that “to most Tibetans he was a traitor and Chinese puppet.”
