These monks, not the 12000 soldiers China sent, could help in the aftermath the best because they didn't suffer from altitude sickness. Their aid
wasn't mentioned in Chinese press/media and now they are forced away from the area and their monastaries.
What gives?
I like chinese culture , art, and people I hope someday they become more openminded in things of belief.
Even the communist party could benefit from a religious aproach to tourism health etc. They have very old tradition that are worth to be kept...
