With the help of three support people, two pro-Tibet activists rapelled from the top of a large Olympic billboard and unfurled a 375 square foot/115 square meter banner in front of Chinese state televisions new headquarters in Beijing early this morning.
The activists dropped the banner, which read Free Tibe in English and Chinese, over an Olympics billboard reading “Beijing 2008; at 5:45 am Beijing time.

| | Quote: |
The decision by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to award the 2008 games to Beijing was always controversial. Free Tibet warned even before the games were awarded that a country with China’s record of human rights abuses was not an appropriate host.
With only months to go – too late to change the venue – the world has woken up to our warning. Recent events in the Tibetan Autonomous Region (TAR) and Tibetan regions of China have exposed the myth, carefully crafted by the Chinese authorities, that China in 2008 is an open society, a worthy host of the Olympics and everything for which they stand.
Free Tibet has so far not called for an athletic boycott of these Games of Shame. It is not the fault of the athletes that the games are being held in Beijing. However, any world leader or other high profile public figure who attends the opening ceremony or any of the other Chinese government-organised celebrations should be ashamed. Free Tibet intends to ensure they are.

Olympics and Tibet under a cloud of repression –7 August 2008
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On the eve of China's first Olympics, as the world prepares to gaze more intently than ever on the grand spectacle of the 29th Olympics, the Tibetan Centre for Human Rights and Democracy (TCHRD) deplores and expresses its deepest dismay on China's failure to uphold the Olympic principles particularly with regard to continual of repression in Tibet. The communist regime continues to cling on to its old authoritarian ways and still ruthlessly suppresses peaceful dissent. Over the recent past the Chinese authorities under the pretext of security measures has intensified clampdown on the fundamental human rights of the Tibetan people.
