Silk Road city locked down ahead of torch relay
By Ben Blanchard 1 hour, 21 minutes ago
KASHGAR, China (Reuters) - China locked down the far-western former Silk Road city of Kashgar on Tuesday in preparation for the passage of the Olympic torch relay through the sensitive region populated by ethnic-minority Muslim Uighurs.
Shops lining Wednesday's torch route were shuttered and police stood guard on every street corner. Soldiers and firefighters patrolled the main square of a city seen as the heart of Islam in China's oil-rich border region of Xinjiang.
"Nobody is allowed to watch the torch relay tomorrow unless you are being organized by your work unit. I feel a lot of regret," said Chen Guangsheng, a Han Chinese resident of Kashgar who said her home was along the route.

Yes, you have a valid point there. I guess the phrase "the greatest good applies". I applaud China for the advancements it has made since 1949 and hope they fare better than the U.S.S.R. (predominantly in the social and environmental sphere).
he has faith in China?
hi, bro, once comes to the politics, it's better not to judge by nationalities or religions. no one reprents the country, and yet, everyone loves his/her country in peace.
So basically anyone of faith in China is a puppet of America?
who has been sponsoring him for so many years?
So who is his master?
We learn lessons. Dalai is just a puppet. so it's quite understandable of such precautions and management.
