Hi,

I just signed an urgent petition calling on the Chinese government to re-spect human rights in Tibet and engage in meaningful dialogue with the Dalai Lama. This is really important, and I thought you might want to    take action:

After nearly 50 years of Chinese rule, the Tibetans are sending out a      global cry for change. But violence is spreading across Tibet and neighb-ouring regions, and the Chinese regime is right now considering a choice between increasing brutality or dialogue, that could determine the futur-e of Tibet and China.

We can affect this historic choice. China does care about its internation-al reputation. Its economy is totally dependent on "Made in China" exp-orts that we all buy, and it is keen to make the Olympics in Beijing this   summer a celebration of a new China that is a respected world power.

President Hu needs to hear that 'Brand China' and the Olympics can su-cceed only if he makes the right choice. But it will take an avalanche of global people power to get his attention. Click below to join me and sig-n a petition to President Hu calling for restraint in Tibet and dialogue wit-h the Dalai Lama -- and tell absolutely everyone you can right away. T-he petition is organized by Avaaz, and they are urgently aiming to reach 1 million signatures to deliver directly to Chinese officials:

Thank you so much for your help!

　　嗨！我需要簽署一份迫切的請願書，向中共政府提出訴求：正視西藏人權，並且與達賴喇嘛進行對談！這是極為重要的事，我認為您也會希望有所行動。

　　經歷過五十年的中共政權統治，西藏人民向世界發聲，期望能有所改變。然而，暴力卻遍及西藏以及鄰近地區。中共政權現在將面臨抉擇：加劇如此蠻橫的行動，抑或是坐下來進行對談。這對於中國與西藏的未來都將有極大的影響。

　　我們可以影響這個抉擇！

　　中共重視其在國際間的聲譽，而且中共的經濟全然仰賴我們日常生活中有著「中國製造」字樣的輸出品。中共也十分重視今年夏天將在北京舉辦，備受國際矚目的慶典：奧林匹克運動會。

　　中共領導人胡錦濤必須重視已然遭受汙名的中國，而且這次的北京奧運成功與否，也端看胡錦濤所作出的抉擇。我們需要來自全球人民的力量讓他正視這個問題！

　　加入我們！點選下方的連結，簽署這份請願書讓中共領導人胡錦濤停止施暴於西藏人民，並且與達賴喇嘛進行對談。務必讓你身邊的人得知這件事，這封由　　Avaaz發起的連署請願書，需要在得到一百萬人的連署之後，再交由中國的政府官員。
