Dalai Lama Comes to UK - May 2008 - last chance?

[Libby Davy]

This may be the last chance we have to meet world peace leader Tenzin Gyatso the Dalai Lama of Tibet. A friend helping organise the tour has told us future tours are unlikely, due to his advancing years and some health issues affecting insurance.

Fortunately there are several chances to hear His Holiness speak - in London, Oxford and Nottingham.

Thanks Richard. I was sent info about this from many people today. Such a wonderful example of positive, constructive, meaningful, peaceful protest. It will go down in our hall of fame.

Connected to the talk in London on May 22nd is a very fine bit of "social networking in the real world" "Give Peace A Hand" will create a unique 3-mile-long "human chain handshake" from the Dalai Lama at the Royal Albert Hall to the Chinese Embassy to send a positive global message for meaningful Chinese-Tibetan dialogue.

A real word interaction made possible by harnessing the power of activists communicating online.
