Tibetan villagers are being forced off their ancestral lands in Gonjo county in Chamdo prefecture by the Chinese authorities. Radio Free Asia has reported 12 families being taken away after resisting Chinese attempts to relocate them to Khonpo in the south, promising new housing and land – the Tibetans saying they did not trust the Chinese promises. This is the latest in a series of forced relocations in the area.
